To summarize:

  1. Waiting for quotes from Hincapie and LeslieJordan technical T-Shirt suppliers - once these two are in a final decision will be made as to who will do them for us…

  2. Mr. Tibbs is gonna set up a PayPal system for orders and final costs will obviously be posted. expected delivery times from manufacturers will aslo be posted.

Over and out…over to Tejas, Norte America and el señor Tibbs…take it from here Tibbs man…

I looked at Hincapie and Leslie Jordan websites. By far, Oomph is the coolest looking. Since Craft appears to be out, now you know my vote.

Stephen,

I can put together 400 shirts for you all 100% poly moisture wicking fabric in our Short Sleeve Raglan in “Black” including the printing of three locations (front two color, back two color & sleeve one color on black) plus the set up for screens to print all for $13.25 each.

Shipping is extra, UPS Ground in USA is about $.25 a shirt. If you want to order less then 400 pieces the price is $17.25 printed including set up.

We also manufacture with the cotton poly blend moisture wicking fabric and that is $2.00 more, but doesn’t come in the raglan sleeve style but the #101 style with basic inset sleeves.

We can also just sell you the blank shirts and the published pricing for them is as follows: #141 White Short Sleeve Raglan in the tech poly fabric
500 or more @ $6.39
499 or less @ $10.49 #141 Color (Black) Short Sleeve Raglan in the tech poly fabric
500 or more @ $7.39
499 or less @ $11.39 Call me and we can put something really nice together for you. Thank you for the inquiry. I look forward to your reply.

Okay…we have costs from www.oomphsports.com and our friend Chris Artibello…his email verbatim:

Shirt $14.50 – for 200-250 units.
Screening – 2 color front & 1 color back = $6.00
– add drop to sleeve = $2.00
Set-up fee – $35.00
Shipping $75.00-$100 (obviously depends on weight and ship option)
Please note Stephen, our shirts have a manufacturer’s logo on the left sleeve. That will not change.
Chris

For example…for 200 shirts thus:

$14.50 x 200 plus
$6 x 200 =
$4,100 plus $35 plus $75 (for example) = $21.05 per shirt plus shipping to wherever you are in the world - which won’t be much for a shirt!!!

Add to this the $10 for charity…

Approx. cost for the oomph Tees are:
$35 more or less all inclusive to your mailbox.

So, we have some decisions to make…who do we go for? The 3 of them have been fantastic and really helpful…Oomph, Hincapie and LeslieJordan…Craft I’m sorry to say have not contacted me…

Who shall we go for???

  1. Do you actually sleep?

  2. Oomph, without question, looks far better in black or white. If you go Oomph, I would order two. If the others, only one, mainly to support the cause. (and I’m still unemployed!).

Did you post a price for Oomph?

ok, sorry, I went back and saw the Oomph prices. It appears they would be a bit more than the other two, however, I still vote Oomph.

yes, scroll back up and you’ll see Oomph prices…

Sperera, Could you post pics and prices for each on one message it would make comparing easier. I do like the oomph shirt though.

sperera, I like the oomph stuff.

good morning Europe…

Good morning Stephen, from England. Any new news?

Sperera, Could you post pics and prices for each on one message it would make comparing easier.

Omph from Europe would be my preference.

Andrew

Want a hat. Sent you an email…

I think it’s only fair on Hincapie to wait for them to send me a photo of the product for me to stick up here…I think the fact Oomph have sent me an image and I have stuck the design on it tips the balance in their favour because of it.

When we have the 3 designs as pictures, then we have to decide.

Good morning Stephen from the fine state of Michigan where it’s a balmy 26 degrees. I’m off today so I think I’ll take advantage of this fine weather and do some deer hunting with my muzzle loader. It’s still black powder season here. Any news on the other quotes yet, as far as images?

Jeff Morrow

nothing like killing defenseless deer! fun cubed!

I know it’s so cool!!! Not only that maybe there will be less dear/car collisions and maybe, just maybe if the deer heard is thin out there won’t be as many deer dying this winter because of starvation. HMMMM? Besides, they taste so good.

Okay…so I’m committed to being unbiased…I have made them all as equal as possible given what was sent to me…hey, I’m a designer, let me do my thing…

In fairness to LeslieJordan, the Tee pic they have is crap compared to the other two…

Stephen,

The Oomph is much nicer then the rest IMO . I haven’t seen any of them in person to feel the material or to look at the quality but just on appearance I would have to say the Oomph shirt has my vote.

okay…1-0-0 to Oomph

Keep this bumped
