Four colorways are listed, Army, Asphalt, Black and Light Blue, in sizes S to 3XL. The tee is aimed at developers and anyone who has inherited someone else's codebase.

The story behind this design

Ctrl+Alt+Del is the one keyboard shortcut non-programmers also recognise, which makes it the right shorthand for a shirt that has to work in an open-plan office as well as at a conference. The dark grounds — Army, Asphalt and Black — keep the joke dry rather than loud, and Light Blue is the only option that lets it read as cheerful.
