What happened to Eric and Dylan's outfits?

specifically their custom made t-shirts and their trenchcoats. Are they on display somewhere? Are they keep locked up at some FBI headquarters? What happened to them?

The Klebold family got Dylan’s clothes back unknown what happened to Eric’s clothes

I don’t know
The Harris family didn’t want Eric’s stuff

Doubtful

I think they’d still have his jewelry and maybe kept his coat. I bet they got rid of his wrath shirt...why would they want to keep that reminder

Just sell his wrath shirt to some true crime museum lol

I Know Ms Klebold kept Dylan’s blood Soaked Baseball Hat

There was a trenchcoat on the display of evidence in 2004. Since the Klebolds had Dylan's stuff I think we can safely assume the trenchcoat was Eric's.

I just don’t see his parents making a profit off of Dylan in that way. Though some may disagree with me because of Sue’s book

I'm not always comfortable with Sue's book and especially how she portrays the Dylan/Eric dynamic but I don't think she has ever done anything to profit from Columbine. To me, the book is her way to mitigate Dylan's crimes in a small way and also to confront her own grief.

That's kind of creepy tbh, I'd throw that away first chance I got if I was in her position.

You have to realize that Dylan had worn that hat for a long time, also the fact that Sue had hand sewn the B on the back of this hat from a previous one Dylan had worn out. I'm sure there were A LOT of memories tied up it that hat, of seeing Dylan wearing it etc.

Well if it's drenched in blood and maybe even physically ruined I don't think I could bring myself to keep it.

True. But its like the old saying- Different strokes for different folks...

Yeah I would hope she would have washed it at least. Even if she did, it must have been gut-wrenching to first get it and hold it in her hands. Not only because it was a close reminder of her son, but because the blood of who knows how many dead kids (including her own) was soaked into it. What a morbid keepsake. I can't say I blame her, but it's still morbid.

As for museums, they usually accept things as donations, they don't buy them. I doubt many museums would want to display something like that anyway given the cult following that Eric and Dylan have.

I wonder if the museum of death would accept them? They have a massive Charles Manson exhibit etc..

Hmm, good question. Columbine has always seemed morally "off-limits" due to the fear of copycats, the glorification of the killers, etc. It seems like it would be in bad taste for a museum to display the actual clothing worn by school shooters. But hey, not everyone has the same concerns of bad taste. : )

I think it is so much bad taste because the perpetrators and the victims were all kids. They were not some kind of "evil spirit" that is so fascinating with serial killers (although it is probably not that simple with serial killers too but we still like to believe in this myth). Eric and Dylan did that because they were kids that people could not help. They had real issues, they suffered and society failed to help its children. You have to take it seriously, it's not entertainment, it's not a movie-like tragedy, it is something that still happens.

Agreed.Displaying the clothes of a child who murdered other children feels more exploitative than educational. Granted, I'd like to see such a thing myself, but I'm a monster. :p

How did you find out that she kept his hat?

It’s in her book

I'm pretty sure Eric's parents gave the majority of his clothes to goodwill. Though,I seriously doubt they even wanted the 'Natural Selection' shirt back from the police.

Then it's okay to say that I watch old Columbine footage while wearing diapers and smearing myself in peanut butter?

It's really kind of creepy to think of some kid walking into a Goodwill, buying Eric Harris' clothes, then spending the next months or years wearing them without having known who they belonged to. That's the dream of like 72 percent of all incel forums.[/quote]

Sue probably kept alot of Dylans clothes since she mentions wearing his jeans and stuff.

Doesn't surprise me. She loved Dylan, and seems to hold memories with him dear. Especially after she sewed the "B" on his new hat.

oh of course. thanks!

I learned Sue kept Klebold's clothing after the autopsy from this thread, but I'm pretty sure Harris' clothing went on to be displayed in the 2004 exhibit, with the other brown bags of clothing.
