View Full Version : Shirts
Ok, I'm gonna take the plunge and float the idea of another shirt run.
Shirts would need to be paid for upfront, prior to ANY orders being place with manufacturers.
Are there any members keen to help design a shirt?
My thoughts were that we could include the sponsors logos on them and perhaps approach them to help out with the setup costs of embroidery or screen printing. This would give them some exposure and help keep costs down for members.
What are our thoughts?

Not a bad idea Luke,
If your gunna make them then please dont make them out of the same material as the last lot of shirts. Mine has never come out of the cupboard!!
Maxy
Are we talking polo style shirts ? There is a place next door to where I work that does that kind of thing. :wink:

Maxy
I agree the stitching on the hem of mine came undone after the first wash and has several pulled threads that haapend just to easliy. (does anyone know how to get coffee stains out??)
See what ideas I can come up with as to designs for new shirt
They'd not be of the same material Maxy I too found it pulls very easily.
Doesn't stop me wearing it though 8)
We could do a polo and a tee if people are keen. The tee would obviously be cheaper than the polo and we could do it as a simpler design etc.
I have already got a company lined up that has our logo digitised so we'd not need to pay the fee to have that done again. It's where I got the caps done. Also we have the place where we got the last run of shirts done (early last year I believe) so we could go there again, although it was a little expensive ;)

a polo shirt will be nice and i would wear it more
Not much of a designer Luke but would like to be able to get some shirts whether they be polo or tee shirts. :)

I would be in, prefer tee shirt
only problem last time was that we went for such a detailed picture on the back the only company that would do them was the one organised. If they fell apart we probably should have spoke up earlier and we could have got them replaced, by the sounds a few went. I rang at least a dozen screen printers and none were interested in doing a detailed logo only for a couple of shirts.
maybe we should just get something simple embroided ansd screen printed as my kids uniforms all come from that mob ( the idea came from) and my union shirts and none of them have gone bad so maybe we should hit them up about the material.
It was fun with everyone putting ideas forward last time so would be good to do again.
Luke i would be happy to help again

Sounds Great!
I wear mine to 3D shoots, when I go.
Ken :D
I'd be up for one, polo would be the go for me. But either would be great.
John
What about one in either camo or a khaki colour so we can wear it hunting 8)
I don't know about wearing it hunting....
The animals don't care where we are from.
We would be wearing them to advertise the site and our sponsors, yes?
I love the idea, as i was not a member last time so don't already have a shirt. :cry:
I would prefer polo. Maybe we should do one of each as opinions on style sound pretty divided.
Puk
One of each was the intention ;) And you could choose one or the other, or both.
The polo would, as expected, be a bit dearer, but along with that, more "fancy". The tee would be for those with simpler taste and not as large a budget ;)
8)
I would put my name down for both as I was also not a member last time and missed out,both Adam and I would be proud to wear TBGA shirts in any style 8)

definitely.one of each as well. :)
I'll definitely take a T shirt 8)
Ado
Mate I will have at least two of each :wink: .
The material of the last T shirt is good in some cases and typically I wear mine to shoots, but it would not be my first choice again :wink:
Please note however I once wore mine to gym and I had the worst case of raw nipps ever so please take my advice and dont do any form of exercise in one :lol: :lol: :lol:
Here's what I've come up with so far.

Things like logo and font sizes would change a bit as they have to be a bit larger than in real life so you can actually see/read the text on the screen.
A Tee shirt design is not far away too :P
Of course, this is just the start and feedback is welcomed on all aspects.
cheers.
8)
Love the green and gold effect Luke,I also like the logo /words I will be happy to take a few off your hands
Andrew 8)
I like it Luke.
I seriously can't think of any alterations i would make. Go for it.

how much are they each ?
Haven't gotten that far yet Brandon, still working on the designs.
This is just a few examples of my first attempts to get a feel for what you blokes (and girls) would like.
I've got to do a more basic design for a tee (as apposed to the polo designs you see above) that will be a cheaper option.
I haven't even gotten to consulting with the manufacturers yet but will do so soon :P
cheers.

An update to correct an omission - my apologies also to Mick for forgetting to include the logo for Trohpy Bowhunts Australia on the shirt design.
So, here's the updated version.
http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k205/griffo79/shirts/green-yellow-green-with-bh-1.jpg
Are there any changes at all that people's would like to see?
thanks for the compliments and feedback so far.
8)
Is a white collar the best, or will it show up sweat/dirt quicker than other colours?
Puk

mate i would like to see trophy bowhunts on the front insted of have 2 logos on the back
A) I didn't know what colour to make the collar, so I've left it for now.
B) If I put the TBHA logo on the front - it'd not be too clear (from the front) exactly who/whom the shirt was "for". IE it's a TBGA shirt and also shows we're supported by the adorning sponsors (as implied by the presence of their logo).
But if you were to see a TBHA logo next to a TBGA logo on the front...who would the average Joe assume the shirt "belonged" to?
8)
One the back how about putting one sponsor at the top then the TBGA spiel then another sponsor at the bottom.
Or you could have the sponsors names on the sleves and no logos a bit like the HRT FPV racing shirts.
And have you forgotten about WOODIES OUTBACK BROADHEADS, BLING STRINGS as a sponsors :wink:
Each sponsor was asked if they'd like their logos on the shirts and if so, if they'd be willing to pay for the logo set up fee for the digitisation of their own logo - thus keeping the cost as low as possible for you but helping us make a top shelf, professional looking shirt.
Those who were interested you see on the shirts...those who weren't...aren't.

Top looking shirt there Luke,
When do you roughly look like putting them up for sale. I am of to work for the next 5 to 6 weeks & have got real bad Internet connections where i am at the moment overseas. If you could keep us in the loop, i will be in for 2 for sure.
Cheers Grunter
I will be very surprised if it happens within 6 weeks mate.
Thanks for your compliments and support!

Luke the shirts look great what about the t's how are they coming along?
I'd like 5 polo's and 3 t's
cheer,
Gnome!
I might get some time to do the design of the T's this arvo ;)
8)
Here's the T-shirt design.
A very basic design to keep costs as low as possible.

Luke- Will take 2 T shirts and 1 polo shirt, just let me know when to pay the money into the account. They look great, what colour for the T shirt??
Cheers,
Rick :)
Luke,
I'm not wanting to be picky, but i was just wondering about the font for the TBGA on the back of both shirts.
It isn't possible for you to do it in Capitals in the font and colours you have it in on your signature photo, is it?
I think it looks really effective.
Just a thought,
Puk

Hey Puk,
I have acutally changed it on the updated version of the polos (the one with Mick's logo on it now) but forgot to when I did the T design :oops:
It's not the same exact, but pretty close.
I'm not sure how the orange and yellow would fit in with the green gold on the shirt but :?
I'll have a play :P
cheers mate

11-12-06, 06:02 PM
I'll have a Pink T xxl please!
Gnome!
be interested to see the final product first. Last one has stayed in the drawer whole time. Is it just me or are these really baggy sleeves on the polo's a pain for getting in the way of the string of a canted tradbow?
Never been a prob for me Ed, but I could see how it might.

Luke I would like to see the writing of tgba to foster, right to hunt put on the back as well if not maybe in small print on the front under the logo.
Gnome!
How about a camo pattern on the collar?
No brown, but in green, black and perhaps yellow? (to match in with the shirt).
Garden Gnome!
12-12-06, 02:30 PM
Yeh sounds good to me 8)

Something like this:

Maaaaaaaaate! Thumbs up for the collar, will it add any extra to thecosta though?
The Arrow heads that are all over the polo shirt can they be put on the T's? just thinking along the lines of cammo when one is wareing out hunting.
Gnome!
The arrows could be on the T shirts, but the we're doing T's so people can get a shirt for under $20. The arrows would only push the price up.
The camo on the collar might make it a tad more expensive. We'll have to see.
8)
Garden Gnome!
12-12-06, 03:03 PM
Yeh thought as much bout the price for the T's. Perhaps you could have a choice Plain or for that little extra the arrows just a thought though.
Did my pm get through?
Gnome!
I guess we could do a choice thing...but it's a LOT of mucking about from my end ;)
No PM mate today mate

13-12-06, 08:06 PM
id take a t shirt depending on price
Approximate costs at this stage will be:
Polo's $35 plus postage.
T's $15 plus postage.
The artwork is currently being sorted at the manufacturer's and when I have a definite price I'll let ya'll know.

13-12-06, 08:18 PM
luke ill take 1 polo shirt when there ready
When I get the definate price I'll put a thread up asking for orders.
These shirts will be in a pay BEFORE you receive basis only.
We've been caught well out of pocket on too many occasions in the past with people ordering (stickers, caps and shirts) to be ordering shirts before members pay.
8)
I received the test print from the manufacturers just the other day, and, let me tell you, IMO these shirts will look **** hot! :twisted:
There were a few lil things that needed tweaking so I've emailed them today and am waiting for their reply.
A definate price is not too far away and I'll be asking for orders soon.
Hope you didn't spend all your money at Christmas! ;)
8)
Any size you want to order mate....when I get the final price and put up the orders thread.

im interested. I would like to see previous t shirt if someone could post a pic .as well as new design before they get printed
Mate the designs are in this thread if you go back in the previous pages and have a gander.
I will certainly be posting the final design here before I ask for orders (of both polos and tee's)

Hey Luke any more on the shirts? Will be home in the next week or so. Will be up for 3 polo's if they are the same designs that you have in mind.
Grunter
I am still YET to hear from the manufacture :( :evil:
I'll try calling them today.
And yes, they are the same as the last design posted in this thread.
8)
Grrr... they don't open again til the 9th of Jan so we'll have to wait til next week.
Sorry bout that folks.
