Well, my white st6 one is on its way already apparently, I'll write up how the large blokes size fits my puny 5'8" frame, and quality etc. When I get that one I'll know what size to get in blackest black! (Or fetching bike-matching orange? lol )
I may need you to get a tape measure on the ready when it arrives Gassoon :thumb:

My two T-shirts arrived this morning  :lala: .

I'm 6'7" tall and normally wear XXL tops. These T-shirts are made of good material and - perhaps more importantly in my case - are a perfect fit with ample length (normally my biggest problem when buying T-shirts) so I'm a very happy bloke.  :)

The logos have turned out well too, even though the parts I thought would be white are in fact a very pale grey. Actually, I think they're very smart on both my blue and black versions.

So a big 'Thank you!' to all of those whose efforts resulted in the production of these very nifty garments. I for one am delighted with them and recommend them to those who might still be dithering.

:text-goodpost:

As someone with an identical physical stature (6'7" and XXL) I'm glad it's long enough. I can buy one now!

The Big and Tall section is really just big from what I can see.

All I can do is repeat what I said above,  namely that I normally wear XXL stuff and the XXL shirt fit me perfectly. I long ago stopped looking at chest sizes in cm/ins as they were of limited use to lanky me.
It seems to me,  based only on MY experience of course, that the sizes are probably standard.
HTH.

My Tee came today, too, just tried it on for a perfect fit! So, I'm 5'8"or 9"  :shrug: and usually take a M or these days a Large in a shirt or Tee shirt.
The measurements of the tee laid out on the floor are:

across the chest = 53 cm
from top to bottom = 73 cm



Sorry about the poor image quality from my crap phone.

The tee is a great fit for me, and plenty long enough. I was also pleased by the quality of the material.

The printing quality is good, fairly bright, and should last a few washes!

Looks like you have used a blurred image of the logo on your carpet Gassoon.

I can't get the link to work now either.

This is from the FAQ section of my soon to be launched V-Strom.co.uk Shop  :)

4. Why did you stop using Spreadshirt, that was really convenient?

A. Because the feckers took the design, allowed it to be uploaded to our shop, took your orders and then decided there was a potential Copyright infringement. I don’t mind them being risk averse but the way they handled the situation was poor. The upside for you is that I will now buy and stock the clothing items which means they will be cheaper and quicker to arrive, the downside for me is chasing you for all the basic information you like to miss out when placing orders, you know, like who you are, where you live and what item you want.(Wow, the wife is right, I am a grumpy bastard)

Morning,

I'm just about to place a batch order of various colours, sizes and logo (chest or breast), if you let me know what you want before tomorrow morning I can make sure you get what you want.

Pricing to be confirmed but likely to be a saving on the Spreadshirt price.

Note: These shirts are described as unisex.

Polo shirts................. :neen:   [actually, I'm serious!]

A Large Black, with logo centre please. (Hope that's not one-pc !)

And how about stickers?! (Or did I miss that debate?) :thumb:

I'll enquire about Polo Shirts but I don't really want to have to build a Warehouse here..

I was keeping hush about the Stickers but between you and me they should be here next Monday. These will include three different sizes of the logo and the existing V-Strom.co.uk lettering decals as a set and then two sizes of Window Stickers (round like a Tax Disc) for the inside of your Car etc.

Woo - hoo !..... :grin:


One thing about polos is you could probably get all black ones in, with logo on breast, just get different sizes make it the 'standard' for the forum...Most popular top, and visible branding all year round. Who wears owt over a polo?
Cunning sod, me :)

Read the FAQ - should I order now and arrange to have something StromTrekkery printed on it myself, or is there a plan to order in some customised ones? Either is fine, but I thought I'd check first :)
