A Compendium Of Crap Named After Haight AshburyPhoto: Andrew Dudley/Hoodline
Living in a famous neighborhood can be strange. From tourist hoards, to local celebrities, to shops featured on the Discovery Channel, there's a lot going on here. And a lot of reasons to associate your brand with the hood. 
The many and varied Google alerts that get delivered to our inbox about the Haight have included dozens of listings for products named after our most notorious corner. 

For instance, don't you want a Haight Ashbury duvet cover from Deny Designs? That way, on the off-chance the street noise isn't keeping you up all night, you can still be reminded, constantly, that you live here. 


No public toilets in the Haight, but you can purchase a Haight Ashbury "toilet decal" for your private facilities. Don't worry, it comes in a whopping 25 colors



And if that's too rich for your blood, you can settle for this "Haight-Skull Thong," found on Cafe Press



Or maybe what your apartment needs is a footstool with a crude painting of the t-shirt shop on the corner, only $99.



And then there's the category of home goods that  seem to be named "Haight Ashbury" for no discernible reason whatsoever. 

How about the Haight Ashbury Dining Table, from Zuo Modern?
Or, how about a microfiber sheet set in a dull brown paisley? So very Haight Ashbury, no?



This "First My Mother, Forever My Friend" mug is inexplicably named the "Haight Ashbury Mother Mug":



(Yes, there is also a Daughter Mug.)
