The Walking Dead merch

There was a global virus. This virus made humans lose their sense of humanity, struggling to follow rules and bringing out the worst in us. But enough about coronavirus…

We’re here to talk about our The Walking Dead and our licenced merch. The Walking Dead – sometimes referred to as TWD by fans - has become an icon of television, redefining genres and establishing itself as a cultural touchstone since it first aired over a decade ago in 2010.

The show starts with Officer Rick Grimes waking up after getting hurt in a shootout. Finding himself in an empty hospital (not one of the Nightingales, no), Rick doesn’t stumble upon a team of doctors or nurses, but zombies. Actual zombies. The walking dead.

Turns out, while in his coma, the world was infected with a virus that turned most of the population into zombies, and Rick has to quickly find a way out – and find out if his family survived. Over the series, the show has got under the skin of viewers by merging horror with reality – tackling both science fiction and real-life concerns, like relationship dramas, the need for human friendship and companionship, rival gangs (of the human variety) and the desperate struggle to survive in a world which isn’t always welcoming.

The show found huge success, nominated for countless Emmy and Golden Globe awards and running for eleven seasons. The 11th season will be the last, but will the dead finally stay dead?

Before Rick and his cowboy hat ride off into the sunset for good (just speculating here, who knows if he’s going to survive to see a sunset), you’ve still got time to catch up and get your hands on a collection of Walking Dead merch to kill for.

The Walking Dead merchandise available in the EMP shop includes a selection of TWD t shirts and other Walking Dead clothing. From the show’s famous title screen – which, as a bit of trivia, decays more and more with each new season – to zombie puns and infectiously good designs, our range of The Walking Dead shirts are available for both men and women.

Other The Walking Dead accessories available include mugs and kitchenware, a perfect solution to ensure nobody uses your cup ‘by mistake.’ If that isn’t enough to get you foaming at the mouth, Walker style, our TWD merch also includes Funko Pop! characters inspired by favourites from the show, including Daryl Dixon. Funko Pop! figures are high-quality, vinyl figurines that celebrate all avenues of pop culture, from television to music icons, so it’s only right that one of the biggest shows in modern history is included.

We’re always expanding our The Walking Dead gifts and merchandise, so make sure you keep checking back as the show reaches its conclusion. With our Walking Dead merch, the show will live on forever… but in a good way, not a zombie way. Promise.
