Fantastic development!!!!! Just spoken to Alan Romick of
www.headsweats.com and he has given me a fantastic price for technical race hats. They make the hats for the Ironman brand...say no more. Here's the deal:
$5 per hat, including the embroidery of the logo for 300 hats minimum. The shipping would be about $50 to an address in the USA.
Special thanks to Chris Artibello of www.oomphsports.com for this contact. Oomph have also pledged support on the Tee-shirt front and are coming up with prices for us....so are Hincapie sports. I will post details when they come to me.
This makes each hat $5.17. When we add the postage cost and the cost of the packs to send them out in I think it'll come to $7 total per hat.
So, if we add $10 for charity on each hat they would cost around $17 each!!!!! Great!!!!!! The chosen charity for the hats is:
CAF - the Challenged Athlete Foundation, as this is a favourite amongst many of you and also of the people who're doing the hats....this has helped for the price too!
I have visualized a white one below, from their catalogue.....we can have any colour.
So, we have a price at last.....we need postage prices only. This is the design, ignore the red trim....imagine this design on the above:
So, let's get some orders in for the hats!!!!!!!!!!!!! Those of you who have already emailed me I will check if you wanted hats.....many, I hope, will now also want hats so re-email me please!!! or Mr. Tibbs of course.
