12 'Chuck' Gifts For Proud Nerd Herd Members

by Sage Young

Once a Chuck fan, always a Chuck fan. The romantic spy comedy hasn’t been on the air since 2012, but the Bartowski fandom is still alive and well and thinking about the series on a daily basis. (Does Sarah get her memories back? I need to know!) Fortunately for any potential gift giver looking to surprise a member of the Nerd Herd this holiday season, there are tons of awesome and unique Chuck -related gifts available on the internet. Maybe your Chuck-loving friends and family prefer to wear their show pride, dive deep into pop culture analysis, or even deck their living spaces out in referential art work. Whatever their bag, there’s a Chuck item to suit it.

And hey, if you double up on these gifts and keep one for yourself, who has to know? Shopping for fandom stuff is fun, but it’s also very, very dangerous if your interests intersect with the person you’re shopping for. Maybe keep your bank balance open in another window while you do it. Or don’t, because what could be bad about giving or owning every one of these cool Chuck-inspired gifts? Team Bartowski should always be prepared, and representing.

1. Orange Orange Frozen Yogurt Print

2. Character Travel Mug

Chuck and Sarah aren't the only Chuck characters worth remembering. Your caffeine-addicted pal can pay tribute to the whole Buy More, CIA, and Bartowski family gang with this quirky tumbler.

3. "Team Bartowski" Canvas Print

Need to splurge on someone? This subtle and cool artwork looks super plush printed on canvas, but is available as a flat poster as well.

For the friend who daydreams about being the intersect, go for this Chuck quote necklace.

5. "Respect The Beard" Tee

Because this quote will never not be relatable.

11. "Nerd" Beanie

Chuck star Zachary Levi founded this company to celebrate nerds of all stripes. The store has all kinds of geek-pride goodies, but I recommend this cozy beanie, which will inevitably flatter anyone.

12. Unpacking Chuck Book
