About Us

History

Filmgarb was launched in 2013. The goal of this website is simple; provide a resource for people looking to buy cool shirts and clothes that they see in movies and shows. Currently Filmgarb specializes in funny, novelty and somewhat geeky men’s clothing.

This website is developed and maintained by a single individual. It’s mostly a hobby and when time permits, it allows me to explore one of my favorite pastimes, content curation, and also brush up on my web development skills.

General Information

I do not claim any ownership or association with any of the media presented on this website. Most of the imagery on this website is likely copyrighted and is being used under fair use (opens in a new tab).

I do not sell the items listed on this website nor am I advocating for any of the outlets I link to. When I am looking for an item, I try to choose the most reliable and trustworthy outlets, but if you choose to the buy the items I link to, you are doing so at your own risk. I can not assist you with purchase issues.

Submit Items

If you have sourced an item that is worn in a film, tv show or web series and would like me to feature it on this website, head over to the submit page and fill in the form. Crowdsourced content submissions are always appreciated.

You should know that this website utilizes affiliate links for some of the item listings. That means that when you click on one of the links provided by this website and if you end up purchasing the item, I could get compensated a small amount of the purchase price. Not all of the links on this website are affiliate links.

Technical Details

This website is built with Astro (opens in a new tab), TypeScript and Tailwind (opens in a new tab), and hosted with netlify (opens in a new tab). It is built on my own machine and pushed up as plain static files; nothing runs on a server when you load a page. The full story of the 2026 rebuild is here.

It uses almost no JavaScript. The exceptions are the search page and a few lines on the report page, and that’s the whole list. There are no analytics scripts and no cookies. The “popular” and “trending” sections come from a count of page views that stores nothing about you.

My original goal and continuing mission is to make this website have the fastest page speed (opens in a new tab) possible, without limiting core functionality.

Contact

If you’d like to get in contact with me, you can reach me by email. My email is admin@ the domain name of this website (filmgarb.com).
