Why Sticker Quality Matters
Not all stickers are created equal. Cheap paper stickers fade, peel, and leave a gummy mess. The Deftones stickers we're featuring here are printed on vinyl, which means they can handle sun, rain, and the occasional car wash. The adhesive is strong enough to stay put at highway speeds, but it's also removable if you ever want to change things up.
The Standout: Deftones "Around the Fur" Sticker
The "Around the Fur" album came out in 1997, and its cover - a photo of a dog's ear and shoulder taken by photographer Rick Kosick - is one of the most recognizable images in the band's catalog. This fan-inspired sticker takes that design and puts it on a premium vinyl decal. It's $7.00, which is a fair price for a sticker that's going to last years on your bumper.
The Deftones "Around the Fur" Sticker is ideal if you want something that nods to the classic era without being too literal. The art is bold but not loud, so it works just as well on a laptop lid as it does on a rear window. If you're using it on a car, place it on a flat surface to avoid bubbling.
The Throwback: Deftones "Feiticeira" Sticker
If you're more into the White Pony era, the Deftones "Feiticeira" Sticker is a solid second pick. "Feiticeira" is the opening track off White Pony, the album that brought the band mainstream recognition in 2000. The sticker itself has a mysteriously dark vibe that feels lifted from the album's artwork. At $7.99, it's only about a dollar more than the Around the Fur sticker, but that dollar gets you a bit more detail and texture.
This one works great on explore our phone cases, gaming consoles, or anywhere you want a more intricate design. Just keep in mind that smaller surfaces might lose some of the fine details, so it's best placed on a flat, larger area.
The Classic: Deftones Band Sticker
There's something to be said for the simple band name sticker. The Deftones band Sticker is exactly that - the Deftones name in a clean, unmistakable font. It's $7.99, and it's the kind of sticker you can throw on a toolbox, a skateboard, or an acoustic guitar case. If you want people to know who you're listening to without having to explain the album artwork, this is the one.
The design is versatile, and because it's just the name, it works on curved surfaces like a bike frame or a browse mugs & drinkware. The vinyl is thick enough that it won't crease when you bend it around a curve.
The Multi-Pack: 2-Piece 3" and 5" Waterproof Vinyl Decals
Now, if you're specifically looking for a Deftones sticker pack for cars and laptops, this is the set. The 2 (Pieces) 3" and 5" Deftones Sticker, Waterproof Vinyl Decals for Many Purpose Like Cars, Trucks, Laptops, Phones, Windows and More gives you two sizes of the same design. You get a 3-inch decal for your laptop and a 5-inch decal for your car rear windshield. They're made of waterproof vinyl, so they'll survive rain, car washes, and that time someone spills a drink on your laptop at a show. It's $7.99 for both, which is an absolute steal.
The 5-inch size is perfect for a rear window because it's visible but not obnoxious. The 3-inch fits neatly in the corner of a laptop lid. If you want to match your car and laptop, this is the only set that guarantees you'll have matching art on both.
