WWDC 2017 Conference Swag Includes Custom Levi's Jacket and Apple-Themed Pins

[MacRumors]

As we get closer to Apple's WWDC 2017 keynote, which is set to kick off today at 10 a.m. Pacific Time, several developers have taken to Twitter to share the swag they've received at the conference this year. The items include a Levi's denim jacket with a custom WWDC17 logo and a collection of Apple-themed enamel pins.

The Levi's trucker jacket comes in black, includes fits and sizes for both men and women, and has two interior pockets large enough to fit an iPhone 7 Plus.

The pins handed out to WWDC attendees this year include a collection of six Apple designs, including the old rainbow-themed Apple logo, the "hello" Mac greeting, the Swift logo, an emoji with sunglasses, the original Macintosh, and the Metal logo.

A few developers have noted that the pin packs include different designs, with separate collections including an iMessage heart bubble, thumbs up emoji, Activity rings, and more. In addition, each developer has received personalized pins that represent their home country.

WWDC scholarship attendees at the conference are also taking away an Apple TV dev kit, as one 9to5Mac reader pointed out. Students and STEM organization members who won a scholarship got free tickets to WWDC, normally priced at $1,599, and received free lodging as well this year at the San Jose State University dorms, located approximately 15 minutes away from the venue when walking.

MacRumors will be providing live coverage of the WWDC keynote in a live blog on the MacRumors.com front page, as well as via the MacRumors Live Twitter account.

Hmmm those are some pretty dark jackets...

 

[CJM]

Those pins are worth the price of admission.

 

[bbeagle]

I would love one of those rainbow-Apple logo pins.

Of course, they'll be like $200 on eBay. I'll just have to wait out for 6 months until the hype has died down and the price is reasonable.

 

[AlliFlowers]

All will be available on AliExpress in a week.

 

[SamRyouji]

It's a pretty nice additions to devs. They'll have something useful to wear and be proud of.

Just wait until Google I/O and other devcon starts giving custom branded swags like this instead of forgettable goodie bags.

Emojis are so yesterday. New hotness are pins.

 

[Born Again]

Very cool.

Now people can spot the nerds out of the crowd. /s

 

[bLackjackj]

To all those who are wondering,..YES, there will be a dark theme announcement - confirmed. Enough said.

 

[tgdbowler]

Apple saw the movie Office Space and decided WWDC attendees needed more flair.

 

[Scottsoapbox]

Who said the 80s were dead?

 

[TMRJIJ]

Nice attire but you guys just ruined the word 'swag'

 

[Michaelgtrusa]

Nice items.

 

[avanpelt]

A Levi's jacket and a pin that looks like the original, multi-colored Apple Computer logo? What's old is new again.

 

[OldSchoolMacGuy]

I've got so much of this crap from over the years. Always ends up in a box buried in the storage room forever. They did have some pretty cool custom laptop and iPhone cases they made just for speakers at MacWorld some years ago. One of the few items I actually used.

 

[Vanilla35]

This is the first attempt I've seen apple make at being "cool" that they didn't mess up. That's 1 for 100. These are sweet though!

 

[AlliFlowers]

Stuff like this makes me glad I held onto a few things I wore back in the 70's.

 

[RadioGaGa1984]

Very cool.

Now people can spot the nerds out of the crowd. /s

Thats never been an issue.

 

[Kajje]

It's a pretty nice additions to devs. They'll have something useful to wear and be proud of.

Just wait until Google I/O and other devcon starts giving custom branded swags like this instead of forgettable goodie bags.

For attendees for which a Google phone is not custom branded enough.

Nope, it's so simple - they're skipping the dark theme, and going straight to a black denim theme. Shades of old-school pinstripe.

I would wear that WWDC jacket. I like denim embroidery.
