Prop 8

Gay marriage has once again become a hot topic in America the past few days due to the Californian Supreme Court’s ruling to upholding the definition of marriage as being between a man and a woman, causing hundreds of gay-right supporters to walk on the streets, making a statement against a decision they consider unfair and discriminatory.

Gay couples that got married in California before the November election continue to have their marriages recognized by the state, but the gay community in America still feels outraged and is ready to fight for their rights, including many gay celebrities like Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi.

Opposing those are apparently 57% of the American people, according to Gallup – a website specialist in polls and market research. And opponents of same-sex marriage have requested a referendum to block the District of Columbia from recognizing gay marriages.

The discussion goes on on TV shows, at bars, restaurants, on the streets... and at Idakoos as well. Whether you are for the ruling or against it, here at Idakoos you will find the right shirt to speak your mind. Whether you are for, against or ambiguous about gay marriage, you will find the right shirt at Idakoos. “Marriage is totally gay”, “Lesbian trapped in a man’s body” and “Happily married to an American” are just a few.

The meaning of Memorial Day

Once again it's memorial day. Most young people just see it as a day off from school, and I admit, I used to be one of them. But given the recent events that brought the need for protection and the Military closer to us and everyone around us, more and more people appreciate the men and women of the military and what they are doing for us.

After experiencing 9/11 many people just came to understand what it is like to be the victim of a terror attack. To most it usually is a sad event written in black on paper or a screen, or even some hurried pictures of people in anguish and pain. But once you are affected by it personally, be it directly or through others, you realize that those pictures and even the sound you hear on the TV just don't do any justice to the real feeling of terror and fright. For once we understand just how save and protected we were, how sheltered a live we lived, how we took our bliss and happiness for granted. And I guess that is why Memorial Day was invented, because unfortunately, the better the protection the less people often realize the work that is behind it. That doesn't mean we are bad people, it just means that the people that are protecting us are doing a great job. Exactly the reason why we should thank them on Memorial Day - not only for what they are doing right now, but also for what they and others have done, maybe even before we can remember.

“I love soccer” - T-shirts for American Soccer fans

Soccer is one of the most popular sports in the world. And even when it is not the most popular in the United States, it’s becoming more competitive and attractive every year.

In fact, there are many American soccer pros that proved to be world class players. Alexi Lalas, the former president of L.A. Galaxy for example, is one of the most important American players of all times. Cobi Jones and Landon Donovan are some other examples of great soccer players.

Another interesting fact is that many important and fantastic players from other countries have come to play in the MLS. From the Brazilian “Pelé” to the talented British David Beckham, it’s clear that American fans enjoy watching great stars play on their soil.

What’s more: The United States has one of the most powerful female soccer teams. In fact, the American girls are usually big favorites at FIFA tournaments, which is probably owed to the American women soccer team having had really good players in the last years, such as Tiffany Roberts and Staci Wilson.

As you can see, it makes sense that many young people have become soccer fans in America. They are the kind of boys and girls that would love to walk around with an "I love soccer" t-shirt and a soccer ball next to their feet.

Idakoos offers a huge variety of products for every soccer fanatic. One of the most popular choices is this “USA Soccer” sleeveless t-shirt. Another very good option is the “Soccer, a real kick in the grass” tee. Those are just samples of what you will find at our store.
