Imagine this — more than 400 cash-strapped adults fighting for their lives to win an inconceivable fortune, the challenges being… kid’s games?
In case you are living under an internet rock and haven’t heard about it, the newest binge-worthy Netflix series, Squid Game, brings this challenge to life across nine awesome and gruesome episodes. While you probably don’t want to step inside the arena and compete for yourself, you might want to take on the challenge of rocking exclusive merch inspired by the South Korean thriller.
Online retailer Zavvi is launching an exclusive, limited-edition collection full of apparel and home goods that pay tribute to the show. The complete range of merchandise includes sweatshirts, shoes, and even decorative pillows. These items are decorated with distinctive iconography that appears throughout the show, from the cryptic shapes fans know all too well (the circle, square, and triangle) to stills of the six children’s-game inspired challenges.
To pay homage to the players, the line also includes apparel displaying the number 456, which was the starting number of participants in the game and the number assigned to the show’s main character, Seong Gi-hun. You can find this number displayed boldly on a turquoise square cushion or printed on a t-shirt resembling the uniform players wear in the show.
Don’t worry — you won’t need the cash prize of the games to afford this merch! Ranging in price from $19.99-59.99, the Squid Game merchandise is available for purchase exclusively at zavvi.com. Get ready players, because the next merch challenge is about to begin.
