“Someone told me that Atlassian is really a t-shirt company disguised by selling software.”
– a customer tweet
Finally, after years of fooling the public that we were just a tech company, the disguise is coming off.
Introducing… swag.atlassian.com
New store, fresh design, modern swag and original t-shirts (and don’t worry, a few of us are still developing software on the side).
We’ve always had a store, but it lacked the ‘proud’ factor. It was an out-of-the-box solution that just got the job done. No frills, nothing fancy. As time went on and we looked for a better solution, we took into account the storefront, shirt and print quality, promotional product options, coupon code requirements, warehousing and shipping. Interestingly enough, we looked no further than Powertex, the company that has been printing our shirts since the beginning.
