An evil idea

Many more pictures like those and we'll gave to post an adult warning in the front of the site!

In case anyone remembers what started this mess, here's a pic of the shirt!

Wow... I bet that hurt when that duct tape got ripped off...

Def Those came out great! I really love them. But the only question is.... Do they come in Chubby?

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #33 on:** January 29, 2008, 02:40:45 AM

They'd better, or I'll have to find something else to wear!

While I can't compete with Redneck or duct tape humor, I can offer some details on the availability of Multitool.org t-shirts.

Def and I had been working on the idea for quite some time. In December I took the plunge and ordered a minimum quantity. Naturally, several shirts have been appropriated for some of Def's nefarious schemes. A couple even made it into my grubby mits.

Here's the skinny: The shirts are 100% cotton from the Gildan line. They are "military" green and imprinted with the Multitool.org logo in light gray. Def said the color combination reminded him of the shirts from the old MASH TV show. Of the original 12, we have 5 shirts available for sale.

Once Def gets back from SHOT and I get well from this upper respiratory mess, I will be ready to sell the shirts on hand and take orders for a reorder. The minimum quantity is 12 pieces.

Pricing will be as follows:

Sizes Small through Extra Large - $15.00 each plus shipping.
Sizes 2X and 3X - $18.50 each plus shipping.
Shipping will be estimated using the US Postal Service. Shipping will be available to all corners of the globe. Payment will be required at the time of order. Paypal will be accepted and preferred in most cases.

As to the possibility of caps and other items, that will depend on the success of the t-shirts. The trick isn't the price per piece when dealing with shirts and caps, it's often the minimum quantity. My screenprinter will do 12 shirts as a minimum. My preferred embroiderer has a 48 piece cap minimum. They will do 24 but charge an arm and a leg. The cap manufacturers routinely require a 3 dozen minimum at wholesale. Naturally if the interest is there, I am ready and willing to explore the possibilities.

Reports from early beta-testers of the shirts are favorable!

Technically... as a guy, wouldn't you ALWAYS be carrying a tool? Regardless of what's in your pockets???

Now I only have 2 questions:
1-how much is shipping?
2-paypal addy??

PS-LUV THE SHIRT!!!!!

They look pretty cool! To boost sales maybe you should get some hot girls to wear them... whilst out in the rain. Better make em white too.

Have you thought about going the cafepress.com route? They can put any image on anything and do it relatively cheap considering there is no minimum order.

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #57 on:** February 15, 2008, 08:18:29 PM

I actually don't handle the promo stuff. Travis is a professional promo guy and I throw ideas at him like crazy- he takes the more sensible ones and make them happen!

Well Def,if you had taken me with you,you would not have been caught.We could have infiltrated through the Shipping and Recieving dock disguised as a couple of "Innocent looking boxes".
