Your Guide to Kurzgesagt Merch in 2026: Everything You Need to Know

From plushies to posters, the official Kurzgesagt store has something for every science lover. Here's how to pick the perfect merch in 2026.

Complete Guide Overview

Kurzgesagt merchandise isn't just stuff you wear or display. It's a way to carry a piece of that beautifully animated, deeply researched science content with you. Every design - from the "Duck Plushie" that reenacts the famous duck of many videos, to the "Uncertainty Principle" t-shirt - comes from the same philosophy: make complex ideas feel accessible and stunning.

In 2026, the official Kurzgesagt store continues to expand. You'll find everything from apparel made with 100% organic cotton to high-gloss posters that look like they belong in a museum. The merch reflects the same care the channel puts into videos like "The Egg" or "The End of the Universe."

How to Choose

By Interest

  • Science Fans: Posters like the "Periodic Table of Danger" or the "Evolution of Bacteria" are conversation starters.
  • Apparel Lovers: T‑shirts and hoodies feature inside jokes ("I Can't Believe It's Not Butter") or iconic art. The fabric is soft, and sizes range from XS to 3XL.
  • Collectors: Limited‑edition pins and the "Space Plushie" (29,99 €) sell out fast. The "Duck Plushie" (29,99 €) is a must for fans of the channel's mascot.
  • Kids & Families: Plushies and posters make for great educational gifts.

By Product Type

  • Clothing: Most tees are 100% organic cotton, printed with water‑based inks.
  • Posters: Printed on 200g/m² paper with a matte finish, rolled in sturdy tubes.
  • Plushies: Each comes with a small booklet explaining the science behind the character.
  • Accessories: Stickers, pins, and mugs featuring viral video moments.

How to Pick the Right Size

Check the size chart on the product page. Kurzgesagt gear tends to run true to size, but if you're between sizes, go up for a relaxed fit.

Where to Buy Official Merch

The only place to get authentic Kurzgesagt merchandise is through the official Kurzgesagt store. Resellers on Amazon or eBay often sell fakes with lower quality prints and materials.

Why buy official?

  • Each purchase directly supports the channel, which is entirely ad‑free and relies on merch and donations.
  • You get the original artwork approved by the creators. Some designs, like the "Duck Plushie" or the "End of the Universe" poster, are exclusive to the store.
