V-Strom.co.uk Tee Shirts and more
« on: June 02, 2010, 20:48:57 »
When this site first started I set up a 'shop' online where people could buy Tee Shirts and other related V-Strom.co.uk merchandise. I have a couple of the Tee Shirts and they are not bad quality but perhaps a little pricey for what they are.

The only way of getting the right price is to do a group buy.

So.....

1. How many of us are interested in flying the flag/promoting the site?
2. What products would you buy/wear
3. Is the site logo (simple V-Strom.co.uk text) the way to go or do we have any budding designers out there?

Come on folks, I have a rare case of enthusiasm, it'll never last unless you stimulate me  :shock:  :grin:

Tshirts prob your best bet, personally I'd be interested in a long sleeve tshirt more than anything because that's what I usually wear under my bike kit, black with the forum logo on? have to be cheap though cos I'm skint and tight ;)

T-shirt is fine, I'd prefer a short sleeve and suggest the "V-Strom.co.uk" logo cross the back (shoulders) at the top, black with light grey logo (or maybe yellow with a black logo so we are easy to spot?) Other desirables are that it should be machine washable, shouldn't shrink in the tumble drier and the logo shouldn't peel off (embroidery prefered) :-)

I like the idea of t-shirts but I think the logo is a bit dull,sorry. same for stickers. :shrug: As its me who is dissin the logo then I feel obliged to get creative.

Yep, tee shirts are a great idea, count me in for a couple (a long-sleeve option would be good) .Any progress on designs, lads and lasses?

personally, I think the logo as found on the stickers would be fine on a t-shirt - less is more as they say
