Adorable chimera plushies and shirts almost defy comprehension

ItemLabel

Are you searching for a cotton blend orange-and-yellow cow-print hoodie? What about cow-patterned Peepy? Or maybe a purple Mega Peepy? What about a star-shaped plush Sucklet? Or a Yellow Clam Peequi? Perhaps a soft Inverted Cowpy (Ypeep)? I know you want a Moley,  or maybe Thicc Brungus, a Peepy with an elephant bottom, or Youfo, a six-legged alien who is extremely unphotographable. Either you know what I am describing, or you are saying WTF. 

Item Label is an online shopping website that is slightly sarcastic and a thoroughly creative and outlandish consumption experience, created as "a revenge-based company located in Maryland… to show up and embarrass our enemies." With unanticipated back-stories to all their products — from patches, hats, socks, stickers, and shirts of all colors, textures, and sizes, to the furry species of "animals" all are ready for a new home. These creatures all have accompanying theme songs and insightful profiles like this one for Ypeep:

"After committing a respectable and kind good deed, Ypeep is ready to have a good time and take you on vacation.

Strength: Grass Eating
Wisdom: Accounting
Psychic: Missing Time

Weakness: Probe
Birthday: June 29

Peepy is "peanut-shaped and has a large beak. The name is used to refer to both the species as a whole as well as the name of a specific Peepy, OuiOui, who is a 'juvenile Peepy,' that is overall smaller and spherical in shape." 

This T-Shirt, with the image of an orange humanoid blob-like figure drinking a beer and proclaiming "I'm Content Just Living on this Shirt," could be the equivalent of The International Noise Conspiracy's anthem, "Capitalism Stole My Virginity".
