Now that we managed to get some of you to prise open your wallets and cough up for some top of the range stickers, the plan now is to get you to part with even larger amounts of your hard-earned and buy designer Forum Polo shirts. The options were T-shirts (they show off your beer gut though), Sweat shirts (sooooooooo last year), Fleeces (no good for the warmer weather (one week a year)), or Polo shirts. Always sexy, casual, trendy, and baggy ones make you look at least two stone lighter than you actually are
I've had one made as an example. Printing is pants and fades fairly quickly, so I thought Embroidery might be preferable, and looks a bit posher (!) too.
There are several options available, so your thoughts and opinions will be appreciated, I know sitting in the office, pretending to work is very stressful, but perhaps you could all bend your minds to this.

I was going to model the shirt personally, but I couldn't take the ridicule.

Here's a couple of pics of the one I had made.
I'd best point out that I didn't use money from Tonys Gin fund to pay for this as it's not an approved forum item.

Front view - left breast with logo and your name (as long as it's 'leslie henson')



Large forum logo across the shoulder blades.



The above item will be £20, but there are variations available.

Colour doesn't have to be white, there's green, black, blue, etc etc

The logo on the back can be optional as well. If you have a shirt without the logio on the back, then around £12 for the shirt.

For now, please just comment on what you personally would prefer (assuming you would buy one of course). More than one type can be made, but it would help a lot if we had an idea of taste and demand.


Les.

Les,
I think the embroidery on the front is excellent, not sure about going so far as adding names though.
The embroidery accross the back is probably a bit rough looking ? Going that size, would really need a transfer rather than multiple rows of stitching...

Black / Landy G reen / Ford Blue - Yes.
White - No thanks.

As above.
Not sure about the back.

I'm in.

Nice

However comments...

Not sure I'd want my name on mine, might be better if I was incognito, safer that way

Not keen on the 'breast' embroidery as I find it tends to give me terrible case of joggers nipple

Not convinced about the logo on the back either


So can I have a plain black one?

Front only I think - without the name underneath - that way the price can be kept down. Count me in provided they make them big enough

Les,
I'm not to sure about the logo on the back but the rest looks fine. I don't really mind the name bit either although a green shirt with yellow writing would look good

Mo

a large Blue [pref dark blue if available] with Logo only on front Please

Let me know total cost inc postage & I'll paypal it to Mr Treasurer [Tony]

Front only on green for me please (LR green of course )

If people do want names, how about Forum names rather than actual names? I know some people use their name but most don't...?

Sure Bish, any name you like. Forum name or title - whatever you like.


Les.

Yes please les would be very interested but as DR Goon said big,big,big.

The demonstrated embroidery brings to mind thoughts of satin/ nylon bowling [curling? ] jackets
Now THAT would stand out in a closet full of Landie related cloths
cheers
John

if we have or user names on them, then its alittle easier at shows etc to know who is who.

any wooly hats on the way?

[quote] any wooly hats on the way?[/quote

Would that be with a bobble on? Perhaps matching red socks and superior attitude.


Les.

Yep, would be interested in one with embroided front only, perhaps with my forum name underneath, in Black size L

Very 'Devon 4x4' Mo

Les, they look good, green or blue front only would be my pref.

What colour would the rest of the shirt be James ?

Stephen, so it is but they're quite welcome to copy my colour scheme

Mo

Les,

I'd have one I think black shirt with yellow embroidery would look good, forum name on fronts a good ide for shows and a like. I wouln't mind having the logo on the back either.

Matt

Sorry forgot to mention colour perhaps orange shirt with black username or is that a bit ott

You're getting as bad as Andy/Moglite for colour coordination

OK mark what if I go totally mad and had black shirt with orange username

Have you thought about loosing a couple of wheels and getting sponsored by KTM ?

Mark when I was on two wheels I did more damage than on four or are you just trying to get rid of me

Now look, you people with rather gay colour taste can only have silver, normal silver, angry silver, gay silver, but definitely silver. You can buy one of those indelible ink pen thingys and tart the lettering up if you like, a bit like painting by numbers, only no paint, and no numbers either.
There's just no pleasing some people.

Les.

Not at all.

More damage??

Les, can I have mine in silver please.


Mark,I can do more damage without even trying.

Les, can I have mine in Epsom Green Metallic with silver writing. Would prefer my Forum name in case my wife spots me at a Show.

Neil

No.


Les.

no point asking for Bottini Grey then?

Mandy,

thats just posh 'pompey speak' for dark silver

Nige

So now we have had every colour option known to man, back to the ranch!

Are we getting any clothing or wot?

I am too scarred to ask for Dulux Celebration Red

Will

Any News LES, Are we going ahead with the shirts ?

Yeah,

Get back to us on the shirts.

I've always wanted to be able to say we have had the shirt off yer back

Nige

My embroidery in 'primer grey' please

Can i hae a shirt too please

do they come in super big fat person I'm not that keen on size?

I'd go for just the logo on the front of a black shirt.

Matt

So what are we doing about shirts then??????
Is mr henson going to SOD if so ill order one and pick up then if thats ok.

could I have mine in pale blue front, green back, offwhite shoulders + neck, white sleeves, Hammerite gold lettering, with silver lower arms please?

cheers

almost forgot, Embroidery on the front only sounds good, name hopefully optional.
