You know it, the ones that make us laugh, cry, and clutch our Eggo waffle pillows in sheer excitement. Whether you're binging the series for the umpteenth time or just discovered the Upside Down, it's these friendships that make Stranger Things, well, *strange* and fabulous!

The OG Crew: Mike, Dustin, Lucas, and Will

First up, the original Hawkins crew: Mike, Dustin, Lucas, and Will. These boys have been through thick and thin—Dungeons & Dragons campaigns, demogorgon battles, and those awkward middle school crushes. Their bond is tighter than Dustin's curls, and honestly, can we talk about Mike's endless determination? He'd storm the Mind Flayer with nothing but a slingshot and his heart of gold. If you want to feel part of the gang, make sure to check out our Stranger Things merchandise!

The Dynamic Duo: Steve and Dustin

Steve Harrington and Dustin Henderson: an unexpected yet utterly delightful dynamic duo. The moment Dustin called Steve for help and Steve actually came running, we knew we were in for bromance gold! Proof that age is but a number when it comes to finding your ultimate partner-in-crime. And let's not forget the legendary hair tips Steve dispenses—totally worth it. Show your love for Steve and Dustin with something cool from our Stranger Things T-shirts collection.

Power Couple: Eleven and Mike

Mike and Eleven have been through their share of Upside Down drama, but that doesn’t stop their love from pulling all our heartstrings. From the first "friends don't lie" to their blossoming relationship in later seasons, their bond is pure and heartfelt. Eleven may have superpowers, but let's be honest, their friendship is the real magic here. Go on, snag some Mike and Eleven themed gear to show off your love for the duo.

Girl Power: Eleven and Max

Hellooo, besties forever! When Max and Eleven finally bonded, it was girl power galore. Scenes of these two running through malls, talking boys, and fighting off evil together are pure gold. Max helped Eleven realize that it's okay to be normal sometimes, even when you're a superhero saving the world. This friendship is all about growth and self-discovery. Don't miss out on some epic Stranger Things goodies to celebrate your own kick-ass girl crew!

The Brothers: Jonathan and Will

Ah, the Byers brothers. Jonathan and Will don't just share blood; they share a deeply caring bond that's awe-inspiring. Jonathan would do *anything* for Will, and we see that protective brotherly love in spades as they navigate the perilous waters of Hawkins' dark mysteries. If their story gives you all the feels, show some Byers love with our cool collection of Stranger Things accessories.
