ATEEZ are soon embarking on their 2024 ATEEZ WORLD TOUR [TOWARDS THE LIGHT : WILL TO POWER] IN NORTH AMERICA.
As their kickoff date approaches, ATEEZ has released a first look at this year’s tour merchandise, which ATINYs have been anticipating. There will be pop-ups held at hello82 and merch sold via Amazon.
The selection of merchandise is diverse, including tees, hats, and lightsticks. There are also many unique items, such as leggings, hair claw clips, phone straps, and more.
ATINYs were impressed with the selection of items, as there were many things we don’t usually see in K-Pop merch selections.

Still, the most common criticism against ATEEZ’s merchandise this year was its price. Many felt the prices of the items were astronomical, especially compared to other years. For example, tour t-shirts are usually $ 45 USD, which is already not cheap, but ATINYs noticed it listed as $ 65 USD.

My biggest complaint about the merch is the pricing, cuz these shirts being $ 50-$ 70 is actually insane. Please bring back $ 30 shirts, ESPECIALLY since tickets are as much as they are.

Overall, ATINYs were mixed about the selection and designs. Most liked the merchandise. Yet, many found the prices for the items unreasonable.
How do you feel about the merchandise?
