CaveVan Shirts! Get yours!
« on: August 14, 2015, 10:12:17 am »
I have been working with one of our other CaveVan members here to have some T-shirts made with the CaveVan logo.

The plan is to offer an initial run of shirts to those that pre-order.  Your input here will help us to know what colors and sizes are most popular so that we can stock some that can be ordered in the future. Now will be your chance to have any color you want though!!!

We have narrowed down the choice of shirts to 2. Either 100% cotton or a 50/50 blend. Rob was nice enough to print and send me one of each to test.  ;)

I wanted to actually wear and abuse these shirts before deciding that they were a good choice to put the worlds coolest logo on ;D  I've been washing and wearing them daily for weeks now. Crawling around on the ground and generally abusing them ;) Sometimes wearing far more than washing :o Just to see which one absorbed and stored sweaty stink more than the other :o Fortunately the 95* temps have helped out with this testing ;)

My personal preference so far is the blend. It comes out of the wash fresher and less wrinkled. It also doesn't seem to hold sweat nearly as much.

Both are wearing about the same at this point.

I will update this topic in a few when Rob gets me the color choices and sizes. Then you can tell us what you want over the next few weeks. Initial shirts we think will be $25 shipped in the lower 48.

These are some of the test shirts that were printed for Rob and his kids!



As you can see no animal testing was done, we used only real children! ;)(in a real Eurovan)



Test shirt!! KTM and Syncro T4 testing day 8)

Needs to be 100% cotton, fairly heavy weight (no "tissue tee") USA made to get my $...  ;D

I'm curious why a t-shirt has to be USA made?

These will be printed in the USA and sold by a USA company.

While I can appreciate the sentiment, this is a forum based on German made vans.

You own a German van, so why draw the line at t-shirts?

I think Cole needs a piqued knit polo shirt with an embroidered CaveVan logo in navy or black.  I need one too.
Thanks,

Sorry, this got pushed down the to-do list. I just bought another house and have been furiously trying to move and complete Eurovans.

I'll get back in this and see what the time line is like.
