Do you actually wear / use your Ayu merchandise?

I've been wondering about this, and I've never seen a thread for it, soo...

Do you wear your Ayu merchandise? Like the shirts, if you have them? Or do you use the towels, wear the wristbands, drink the Rock'n'Roll Circus tea? Or anything you can think of, discuss it here!

These are my answers for the items I own:

- 2 AT09 wristbands: I wear them to clubs! I know people will probably think this is terrible, but they're still pretty clean I just like them a lot, I don't wear pink/yellow t-shirts, but the two wristbands are a nice "subtle" flashy touch
- 4 Sport Towels (AT08, AT09 and two CDL08-09): I don't use them! The CDL ones are even still in their plastic sleeves. It's the complete opposite of the wristbands, I'm very careful with those towels! They're getting a bit dusty but I'm scared to wash them, I'm afraid they'll lose their color.
- R'n'R Circus Limited Box Set, Tea: didn't drink it! It's still in the packaging in the tin thingy that came with it.

I guess that's all of the usable / wearable Ayu merch I have now what about yours?

edit: I forgot the 2008 Desk Calendar I have, but I don't write on it. But I don't think anyone here does.

well I only have 1 ayumi merchanise which's her AT08 keychain (yeah I'm a really sad case here xD)

but I do use it , I have it hooked onto my bag & to me , I only will get an artiste merchanise if I'm going to use it

I wouldn't buy it for the sake of doing so or even worst case , buy it & put it in my room for it to rot/become a white elephant in due course ~_~

I just had my NEXT LEVEL hoodie tailored to my size...and I can't wear it now, since it's the middle of summer, but I will be wearing it as soon as fall gets here! lol

I wear my t-shirts all the time (and get weird looks from people saying "TEAM MESSAGE? What's that?" or sometimes hear Japanese people behind me trying to spell it out, going "chii-mu....messe...ji....". Quite amusing.)

I don't own any regular wristbands so sometimes if I'm going running and it's really hot I'll use my AT10 one. :x Towels I use at her concerts, along with uchiwas, and I broke my AT10 one in half at the last concert I went to. xD THAT was an experience. I think I must be the first Ayu fan in history to break and uchiwa from overuse.

What else...about 3 of the straps hanging off my cell phone are straps from her tours. Though my phone regularly gets the crap beaten out of it so the straps are a little dinged up.

I've never seen anyone actually look good in the Tshirts, but of course that's not the purpose of it.

I wear my AT09 t-shirt and hoodie occasionally, but I'm not too fond of the way they look so not often. I wore my PCDL wrist band a few times but eh... it kinda just sits in my room.

My AT08 towel and all my posters are on display in my room. My PCDL towel is folded on top of my dresser somewhere cause I got it free for buying the AT09 hoodie and tee together and I don't have anywhere to put it.

I don't wear the t-shirt because it's too big for me -_-

Towels I drape over chairs as little decorations, haha.

Keychains Ieither use as intended or I tack them to a corkboard for decoration.

The only thing I use regularly is probably the AT09 bag, store some of my writing stuff in there. Puls it's good decoration.

Yes!
I use my AT08 phonestrap and I love it. It's the red one and matches my cellphone perfectly. I also like to wear the PCDL wristband I have. Not in summer because it's too hot but everyday in winter.
My golden AT08 bag is used to keep some of my CD collection save, and I use the AT10 bag as hand- and schoolbag.

yes and no. My strap is for seeing, not using, i am afraid it will get damaged. But my A-nation fan is usefull. since it is summer and we have some hot days, i use it for cooling myself. But i also use it for watching. I have some ayu nails, from mayayu here but don't wear them. I have they pure as collectible because it isn't official an collectible i think i am lucky to have three pairs (and i am an guy, so i don't wear nailart). So the awnsore is yes and no^.^

I sometimes wear my AT08 hoodie, and I wore it after the concert that night.

Erm, I have the AT09 and AT10 t-shirts, but have never really worn them. I only got them because I was at the merchandise stand and wanted some stuff to buy
They don't seem to fit right on me, and I don't think I'd be brave enough to walk around the city in them either... haha

I wore the AT10 sweatband during the concert this year, but haven't needed to use it since

However, I do wear my Kumi Koda t-shirt quite a lot

I use phone straps all the time, I have so many that about half I've used, the other half I just haven't got around to using yet. XD Plus I use my wristbands occasionally, mostly my black AT06 one because it goes with everything. My boyfriend stood on my AT06 key chain, so I super glued it back together but it doesn't look nearly as good. T_T
