Limited Edition GWJ Shirts

If you've absolutely no interest in buying a GWJ shirt, please move on to the next thread!

We have not ordered shirts yet. This thread is to gauge interest.

Well, after much wailing and gnashing of teeth, we've finally moved on getting some fine GWJ summer-wear. After some thought on the matter, we decided that pretty much every site out there has t-shirts, and we've all got enough of those. So, in preparation for E3, we're going to be getting the staff a way to pimp the site using their bodies without breaking a single law!

We decided we'd sell a few of this limited run, but we need to gauge interest, styles, and sizes that we'd need to get. We are settled down to getting either Short Sleeve Button Down 'Camp' Shirts or Pique Knit Sport Shirts.

The 'Camp' are fairly casual button down shirts with an open collar, straight button hem, and a single unbuttoned pocket over the left breast. It would be embroidered with the GWJ logo over the left breast pocket and under that would be the site address. I will be getting these in either medium blue, khaki, or a dusty green (I'm not yet sure if we will have color options for each person or if we will have one shirt). Because of an initial set-up fee with this company - which my wife's company has worked with for years, and does excellent work with excellent quality shirts - and the fact that I have no awesome deals for shipping, these shirts would be around $40 each.

If that's a bit much we will also be getting Pique Knit Sport Shirts (similar to Polo style or Golf Shirt for those of you more familiar with that). These are short sleeve 100% cotton shirts available up to 6XL. Again, the GWJ logo and site address would be embroidered over the left breast. These will likely be Navy, Stone/Khaki, or Blue colored shirts, and should cost $27-$30 after shipping.

This is not the thread to order shirts. Please just let me know either here or through private message if 1) you will likely be interested in shirts. 2) How many you want if more than 1. 3) What sizes you'd prefer. And, 4) Whether you'd prefer the Camp or Sport.

The amount of interest in this thread will really affect how many shirts we end up ordering, though we have to be careful with our budget and this will be a small run of shirts.

Sounds pretty cool. Anything that I can wear in public to confirm how big of a nerd I am, I''m all for.

It would be XL for me, both styles would be of interest.

Not sure what a ''camp'' style shirt is, but I don''t usually wear polo knit shirts, so I''m guess I want a campy shirt.

What happened to the idea of a T-shirt with the Sway comic on it (I was hoping the space invaders comic)?

Anyways, you can put me down for a medium ''camp'' shirt.

Looks like I was right in not leaning towards Polo shirts

I''d take a camp medium, I think Stan would look great on a khaki shirt. Too bad the denim and button down casual shirts are so much.

I''d get one and I''d like it to be large.

how much would the shipping to the EU be? Depending on that, I''d be interested in a shirt, don''t know which one though, yet. Leaning towards sports, but I''d rather wait for the scans.
Also are these the regular US sizes? I think then I need L, but I have to look it up on the comparison table, it may be M due to size differences between EU and US.

No hay banda!

If you end up just doing camp I''d still be interested, though I''d like to see the samples first.

Both polo and camp will end up being offered. Again, I''ll be posting some scans tonight.

You might want to keep an eye out on the site this weekend. We''ll probably ask those interest to go ahead and essentially order their shirts this weekend (at least commit to an order). Since we can only front the cash for a limited order this time around, the shirts will be available on a first come first serve basis (staff excluded). I plan to put the actual order in on Monday evening.

We''ll make a separate post later for the actual ordering process.

I''d be interested. Need to be XL, but I''m not sure on the style/color. Seeing those scans would definately be useful.

I don''t need the 2XL for me, I just know as soon as the babes see me sporting my new GWJ gear they will be lining up to cozy up on the inside of it.

any idea on the shipping costs to Canada. Oh never mind, I know Certis will support the lcoal economy by having them manufactured here.

No, they will be shipped from the US. There will be an additional charge for shipping outside the US.

I don''t have those specifics yet.
