Trivia
- The symbols on the shirt in Splatoon loosely resemble the Japanese word for "Squid" (いか).
- The starfish pin worn with the shirt is a reference to the Japanese Wakaba mark, a symbol representing anything having to do with beginners. This is fitting considering the fact that the Basic Tee is the first piece of clothing received to new players.
- Based on its SplatNet 2 price, it can be deduced that the price of the Basic Tee (had it not been starting gear) would be 300.
