Clippy is the protagonist of the new Microsoft sweater | Digital Trends Spanish


The end-of-year parties are the perfect excuse to Microsoft to drop their already classic Christmas sweaters, which don’t stand out especially for being very pretty, but hey, they have their target audience. And the protagonist of this 2022 of this vest is clippie Office.

The hated and loved Microsoft Office assistant is the latest in a series of ugly Windows-themed sweaters from Microsoft and will be available on the company’s Xbox Gear store today, priced at $74.99.

All proceeds will be donated to the College Success Foundation this year, along with a $100,000 donation from Microsoft.

This marks the fifth year of ugly Windows-themed sweaters from Microsoft and the third year the company has been selling them to the general public. “It started in 2017, we had posted three make up sweaters and we said ‘what ugly sweater would you wear this year?’ and it was our best-performing post all year,” says Megan Muehleman, Microsoft’s senior manager of social media, in an interview with The Verge.

“Our fans really crave and love the nostalgia of Windows,” says Muehleman “It’s always popular on our channels because we’re one of the only tech brands over 30 years old, so people have grown up with us.”
