The process for ordering gear is in transition, and this wiki is being edited to reflect those changes. This process will be finalized in mid-January 2013.  


This wiki has information about how to order gear and who to contact for more information.
If you have a question or need to order gear in the interim, please email gearteam at mozilla dot com.<br>


==Overview==
== Overview ==


In the past, Mozilla-related gear was hard to come by. The process for getting it wasn't clear, and people ordered from a variety of sources, meaning there wasn't much consistency in the way things looked or the quality of the items. In other words, not good for the brand. Plus, the previous process (or lack of it) made it hard to even track how much was being spent on gear across the organization.
You're all empowered to both reward other Mozillians with gear and use it to be strong advocates for our brand. But remember, this isn’t typical “corporate" swag — it’s a statement of your dedication to building a better Web. It's also valuable — and we don’t just mean that in a monetary sense (though we do have some pretty cool stuff!). It tells others that you're part of the Mozilla community and serves as recognition of all of your hard work. (Which, by the way, is why we're using the term 'gear' rather than 'merch' or 'swag'...those words imply the types of throwaway items you'd get at a trade show or event. We want our stuff to have more meaning than that.)


To fix these issues and generally make everyone's lives a little easier, we've updated the gear process at Mozilla. For one thing, there's now a dedicated site where you can get shirts, hats, bags, etc, as well as special order items. We've also consolidated our operations around a single vendor (Staples), and allocated specific gear budgets for each team.
If you have any questions, please email gearteam at mozilla dot com.
