Tri geek hat business: ideas for ladies needed!
Quote | Reply
I've been making and selling hats and bags with "triathlon" sayings on them, like this:



I could use some new ideas. I will happily send a *free* fleece hat to anyone who sends me a great idea for a hat. Many of my hats are online at http://www.tribabe.com Hope to hear from some smart/funny people!

Thanks, Erika O.

For some reason, I like the idea of a hat that says "smartass" on it, but could you wear it into the grocery store? Not me!

*****
I've seen the threesome tshirts, which is OK for hanging out in the transition area, but again, could you wear it anywhere else? When I was a kid I always thought men who wore tshirts that said "Tuba players are better lovers" were pervs... imagine wearing a "wanna have a threesome" hat in front of a 9 year old! AHHH, the 9 year old might be the first to wear it!!

Ding ding!

I think "Shaved and Tapered" is a winner. I'll work on it this week and post a pic. What color of hat would you like, I have many choices:

You should have a hat (black or dark blue) with some nice yellow/red flames on it. That hawaii print would also make a stylin noggin cover.

If I make you a hat that says "Bonk Proof" will you wear it?

Yes I would, I would also wear poser. the first because it seems I am lately, the second just to see who would actually talk to me in transition with it on.

Not sure I would do the Bonk Proof one. Good idea but it sounds more like a clif bar ad or something. for an athlete it seems arrogant. I'll never forget passing this French dude with a hat that read "pass me if you can" on the back. Well, I could and I did. I would feel like if I wore that hat I would be doomed to bonk. It happens.

Poser is fantastic! At the moment I am a WICKED bad poser so that would be great to have. I could wear it around till I finished a race again. That would be motivation! Its gotten to the point of poserdom for me that I dont even say I'm a triathlete any more.

I didn't think of that facet of bonk proof, no I probably wouldn't wear that I was more thinking of the play on words of BOINKPROOF. POSER is definetly wearable though.

I'd wear a hat that said "smartass" on it... ;)

No dice on the "bonkproof" one though - that's just begging for trouble.

I kind of like "shaved & tapered" too...

Wow,

That is really cool. I can get a custom embroidered skull cap for $15.- a piece ?

This is very tempting to get my slowtwitch handle embroidered in one (along with the TM sign)....

I'll embroider anything you want on a hat. It's just the kind of girl I am.

I think your slowtwitch handle is a great idea!

"poser" was floating around Seattle on lots of beanies at the peak of the Grunge scene...



I would buy a hat that said "NOT a roadie" (of course, I am, so it would be even better...)
