Update on Tees

By Rob - Posted on 05 May 2009

A quick update on tees.

Well, the order is a little complicated but have now got some pricing and they are all under 30 bucks (even the LS), for tee without a back print think it will be 23-ish.

There is a slight problem though in that not everyone filled in the colours for the print. And I think some people can't possibly want what I think they have put in the print.

For example, the vast majority of people who wanted chocolate shirt have asked for red/black print, which will look nice. Some have asked for red/white and some for even blue/white. On chocolate - yerch!

Some people have asked for blue/black print on a pink tee. What are you thinking!?

Looks far better with red fill if you ask me:

The trouble is - there is no accounting for taste. Can I treat bad taste as errors and only use these combos:

Black shirt: white/red/blue
Chocolate shirt: black/red
Grey shirt: black/white/red/blue
Natural shirt: Only one request without colours - you'll get red/black
Pink: black/red
Blue: black/red
White: black/red/blue

This will make things soooo much easier - less chance of error and possibly slightly cheaper.

Sorry, but it's all a bit stressful!

So are we good with the 'normal' colour options?

I'm sure I opted for blue/red, as I thought the blue would be a dark blue, similar to black (looks almost like the black/red version above).

I agree the blue/black option looks yuk.

Happy to go with the black/red option if dark blue/red is not possible.

Less options

Will keep us looking more like one group than just some rabble, if you ask me.

your standard "chocolate with red and black text" may not turn out as "nice" as you think if the black cant be seen against the dark brown......

Chocolate, white blue

Loz, so you want this:

thats right

I must admit though, I wouldn't call that "Chocolate" per se, but yeah, I like that.

Its almost just a grey hey?

Thanks

I'm with Lozza....

This looks alright.

Rob, I cannot open the spreadsheet from work, so not sure what I have ordered. But can I change my chocolate to Lozza's option?

Will check and update spreadsheet at the weekend

No more updates yourselves... as not everyone was filling it in completely anyhow.

Now we used that to get the overall gist of things I will be putting up a list with mock up of colours so everyone can see what they (think) they ordered.

Anke is now down for Chocolate, Long Sleeve, Blue/White, Classic, No back print. Pale Pink, V-Neck, Red/Black, Classic, No back print. Both small.

Any more updates - email me!
