Checkered Circle design gives Stranger Things a classic retro look that fits perfectly with the series' 80s universe. And it’s almost impressive how much nice graphics can hide. Behind the motif lies Hawkins with school troubles, a shopping mall, bike rides, secret experiments, and an utterly disproportionate amount of interdimensional mess. That’s probably why Stranger Things works so well: the ordinary and the totally bizarre sit right beside each other. A Stranger Things T-shirt for fans of the series, 80s style, and the town where you should never ignore blinking lights. Hawkins looks cozy. That’s the trap. Nerdshop tip: If you see the checkered 80s graphics from Hawkins, bring a walkie-talkie. Mobile networks rarely help when a portal opens.
