Mark Zuckerberg clicked save on this piece of clothing.

The Meta CEO, 40, revealed that he owns a T-shirt that Jesse Eisenberg wore during the 2010 drama “The Social Network.”

Mark Zuckerberg appeared on “The Colin and Samir Show” podcast on March 27. During the show, he was seen wearing a blue T-shirt with the words “Ardsley Athletic” printed on it.

“Correct me if I’m wrong but you are wearing a shirt right now that Jesse Eisenberg wears in the movie when Eduardo comes to the house in Palo Alto,” host Samir Chaudry asked the entrepreneur. “Is that right?”

“Yeah, that’s true,” Zuckerberg responded. “One of my friends saw this online in an auction and was like, ‘You have to get this.’ So I was like, ‘Alright, yeah, sure, let’s get it.’”

“Wait, so that’s the exact shirt?” Chaudry asked.

“Yeah, this is his shirt. Well, it’s my shirt now. But it was his shirt.”

Chaudry then inquired, “Do you think he knows that, that you own the shirt now?” to which Zuckerberg replied, “Now he does.”

The iconic top was listed on PropstoreAuction, with the winning bid being between $2,000 and $4,000.

Eisenberg, 41, portrayed the Facebook pioneer in “The Social Network,” alongside Andrew Garfield, who played Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin.

Justin Timberlake was also in the trio, taking on the role of Napster co-founder and Facebook’s first president, Sean Parker.

However, Eisenberg made it clear there’s no love lost between himself and Zuckerberg during a February interview with BBC Radio 4.

“I haven’t been following his life trajectory, partly because I don’t want to think of myself as associated with somebody like that,” the actor expressed. “It’s not like I played a great golfer or something and now I want people to think I’m a great golfer — it’s like this guy that is doing things that are problematic, taking away fact-checking and safety concerns. Making people who are already threatened in this world more threatened.”

Zuckerberg changed Meta’s content review policies on both Facebook and Instagram, so fact checkers are now replaced with user-generated “community notes.” This change came after Trump criticized Zuckerberg and Meta for what they viewed as censorship in the past.

The businessman also attended Trump’s inauguration in January, prior to his company paying $25 million to settle Trump’s 2021 lawsuit over a suspension from its platforms.

“I don’t think, like, about, ‘Oh I played the guy in the movie.’ It’s just, I’m a human being and you read these things and these people have billions upon billions of dollars, more money than any human person has ever amassed,” Eisenberg added. “What are they doing with it? Oh, they’re doing it to curry favor with people who’s preaching hateful [things]?”
