Tom DeLonge posts Elder Emo Merch on Facebook and Instagram!
It’s not every day that a legend like Tom DeLonge from Blink-182 casually posts about your brand — but that’s exactly what happened last year when Tom shared a photo featuring Elder Emo Merch!
On July 4th, we came up with the idea to put Tom and Mark on a tee shirt:
Check out the DeLonge / Hoppus 2024 campaign tee.
We honestly expected no one to see it. But it got some traction and eventually reached Tom DeLonge posted on both his Facebook and Instagram pages showing off a “DeLonge Hoppus 2024” parody tee. (Check out the screenshots below!) His posts quickly racked up thousands of likes, comments, and shares, helping introduce our little emo corner of the internet to even more fans who grew up on Dude Ranch, Enema of the State and Take Off Your Pants and Jacket.
Tom DeLonge has always been a huge influence on the punk and emo community — and we’re beyond honored that Elder Emo Merch made it onto his radar. Fans didn’t just stop at commenting; many of you also picked up our popular “Stink-182” onesies, “All The Small Things” toddler tees, and other nostalgic punk baby gear for the next generation of emo kids.
