Trivia
- The White Tee is tied with theBlue Peaks Tee,Jogging Headband, andPearl Tee for cheapest purchasablegear withInk Saver (Sub) inSplatoon.
- The logo on this and theBlack Tee loosely resembles the Japanese word for "squid" (いかika) in hiragana, like theSplatoon version of theBasic Tee. Unlike the Basic Tee, however, the logos of the White and Black Tees were not changed forSplatoon 2.
- Players of theSplatoon Global Testfire who pre-orderedSplatoon were temporarily given a variant of the White Tee with a long-sleeved gray shirt underneath (similar to theZink Layered LS) and a large ink-colored squid sticker on the front as part of a then-exclusive set of gear. Since theGlobal Testfire did not create save files, it did not carry over into the full game.
- Unlike theStudio Headphones andRed Hi-Horses, however, it did not become obtainable in the full game proper.
- Inkling Girl's default variant wears the White Tee inMario Kart 8 Deluxe.
- The White Teeexists in real life, sold by KOG.
