Who does it? Does anyone notice when you do? I wear my Ryder "Broski" shirt (First edition, the code on the back goes to www.wwe.com/zack-ryder-woo-woo-woo) consistently, today included. I wore it to the bank a few weeks ago when I went to have my debit card re-activated (the bank shut it down for "suspicious activity" because I used it on iTunes, Amazon, and X Box live too much.) and when the teller was reading my list of charges so I could approve them all she asked "Did you charge to WWE merchandise?" and when I told her I was wearing what I bought at the time she said "Really? That doesn't even look like a wrestling shirt!" A few kids and older people have noticed when I wear it at work, but only when I turn around because my apron covers the front design. I used to have an Orton shirt I wore regularly (during the Age of Orton, bought it at No Way Out 2009, grey with the gas-mask on the front) and no one ever really took notice of it except for a few people around campus.

I wear the Miz "Hello my name is AWESOME" shirt in public on a regular basis, since it's practically impossible to distinguish from a novelty tee. I fold the bottom hem over the logo, and no one knows it has anything to do with WWE unless they're a wrestling fan.

I Just wore my Jerichoholic shirt this past Saturday to a minor league ball game... no one mentioned it. But I did see a lot of kids wearing Cena shirts at the ball park. Also one of the players intro music was my time is now

I wear wrestling shirts all the time, mostly my Nexus and Andre ones. Really, I don't get the point of trying to hide that they're wrestling-related.

I wear my TNA Hulkamania shirt and my two Miz shirts (blue I'm Awesome and Hello I'm Awesome) on a regular basis, and have actually gotten compliments for all three. The first one also tends to induce impressions, half of which wind up being more Macho Man than Hulk.

Quite happy to wear the few wrestling shirts I have out and about. Once got into a conversation about the Nexus with someone at my Uni as a result of wearing their shirt.

I forgot to mention in the OP but I used to wear my Chris Hero (Black with Red/Yellow emblem) and McGuinness (Guinness parody) shirts regularly before I had to "retire" them (A ritual where I fold them neatly and put them with the rest of my old t-shirts that I have too much of an attachment to to get rid of but I don't or can't wear anymore.). Almost got in trouble for the Nigel one in high school. Had to convince my teacher that it was a wrestling shirt to keep from having to turn it inside out.

I saw a guy wearing the new CM Punk shirt at McDonald's in SF and totally freaked him out by letting about a loud: "hell yeah man! CM PUNK! BEST IN THE WORLD!!"

I have three Bret Hart shirts and they're in my "rotation" all the time. No one really notices them or brings them up except for co-workers (one of whom was an older woman who said that her daughter was in love with Hitman for years). The only time I can think of where a random person noticed was from the mailman when he was delivering the shirt that came out right after Bret returned last January and I was wearing my classic Hitman shirt (it was a reproduction of the '97 shirt that all the Hart Foundation members would wear) and he asked me if I saw him return on Raw and told him that he was delivering the new shirt.

I wear my Colt Cobana one (star of David) quite a lot. Nobody really understands it, which explains the very displeased look from a Jewish person in a Tesco. I also wear the CM Punk fists one, the black one with the white fists. Not many people get it up in Newcastle, or so I've experienced, but the ones who do, I get good looks from.
I'm short on wrestling shirts though, but I'm after a Kings of Wrestling shirt, El Generico, everyone's favourite Broski tee, a Miz shirt and the Best In The World shirt.

I wear mine a good bit.....sometimes I get nasty looks and others its a talking point.
I hate that little patch at the bototm though. Those only belong on athletic gear.

I wear the Miz "Hello my name is AWESOME" shirt in public on a regular basis, since it's practically impossible to distinguish from a novelty tee. I fold the bottom hem over the logo, and no one knows it has anything to do with WWE unless they're a wrestling fan. Funny story regarding that shirt. I was at a state fair over the summer and some guy walked up to me and was "Hey, Mr. Awesome. I just want to tell you that you're awesome man." I was all "Uh, thanks?" and then he said something about my shirt and I was all like "Ohhh." I laughed about it. I have worn my CM Punk Nexus shirt in public, as well as my CM Punk Best in the World shirt. Some people would confuse the Nexus one for being a band shirt. I have also worn my Triple H King of Kings shirt, which can also pass for a band T-shirt. As can my Randy Orton Apex Predator shirt. The one shirt I remember wearing and someone made a comment on it was my DX shirt. On the front, it says "Two Words" and on the back, it says "S*CK IT!" Funny thing regarding the front, when I say it says "Two Words" on the front, people ask "What are the two words?" and I say "Two words." It can kind of mess with someone's head. By the way, I wore that for a presentation in a class once. Someone who was critiquing my part actually said that the shirt was inappropriate.

I'm a huge wrestling mark and known for it at my job, I pretty much wear a wrestling shirt every day, and I love it. *Not to mention the constant wrestling remarks I make moderating AT&T's chat room.*

I wear my wrestling shirt's in conjunction with my WWF hat. I don't wear the hat in the winter so the full outfit is not there in cold months.
I have only have three shirts so far.
I have the Triple H: How to Be a Snob Shirt, Zack Ryder Shirt, and this small size Rey Mysterio shirt. It has a small Wrestlemania 21 logo on the back. I found it at the Salvation Army the other day.
I always look for wrestling shirts in Salvation Army and Goodwill.
The only comments I ever had was for the Triple H shirt and the WWF hat. Some grimey guy at Taco Bell thought it was hilarious. The shirt is quite amusing with it's multiple messages on how to be a snobby creep.
The hat just seems to get alot attention because it has the old logo on it.

I've only bought one wrestling shirt in the last few years and that's the Best in the World Punk shirt, no problem wearing it.
When I was a teenager I used to wear my Steve Austin shirt quite a lot, but generally I wore tons of random layers then. Ah memories.
