5523Pathfinder Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 (edited) Ok, my Mom has a small embroidery/shirt printing business(Patriotic Pride Embroidery). I had mentioned to her about making some shirts and hats for us, possibly other stuff in the future. She made me some samples and I think they cames out pretty good. I would like to get some opinions on some stuff that she just finished for me. Here is what we have so far.... This would be the base t-shirt.... This another shot of the shirt with the logo on the sleeve.... Now the back of the shirts, I wanted our logo big enough to read. She went a little further and added my truck from a photo I sent.... Adding my truck took a bit more work. I came out really nice, but would of been better if I had sent her a better photo. Here are the hats she made. ONe is a Flex-fit hat, and the other is an normal rear velcro adjustable hat. On the hat design, I think it could loose the square border. I think it would look cleaner. So, tell me what you think, what should change or any other ideas. Pricing will come later, but I would guess somewhere around $25 for the base T-shirt(with logo on front and back), and $20 for the base adjustable hat. Thanks all and I hope you like it! EDIT: The base T-shirts will not have a Pathfinder on the back! This was a demo shift only! The plan is to move the Logo up on the shirt where the truck is now.

fleurys Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I think it's fantastic! It's good to see new services poping here and there! I like the t-shirt but without the back pictures and logo.. I'm more of the subtile type...Also, for the cap, I would really like it if the logo was smaller a bit...so It does not take so much place... But that's just me... This is great ! Let us know about the next steps.. I'll be supporting you for sure ! S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She can put anyones rig on there, but it would raise the cost of the shirt. I figured I would give this thread a week to see what everyone says, then maybe a poll. Prices and shipping are to come.

HankG Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I don't wear caps, but I do like those. I agree with fleurys, however, that I'd like a shirt that had a small logo on the breast/sleeve and nothing else. I too prefer a more subtle look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nytrosfinder Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I definably want a shirt... could you make the pathfinder on the back a 2-door possibly? If not its no biggy... I have a 2 door so i just prefer it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 2 door so i just prefer it... the Pathfinder in the shirt is mine, and no, it wont be there on any other shirt. The large logo on the rear will be moved up to where the truck is now. That is unless you want a custom shirt with your truck on it. Edited May 18, 2009 by 5523Pathfinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 lol Reading is a lot to ask there Derek Like the shirts, large logo on the back or a small one on the breast and/or sleeve is good IMO. Not really a hat guy, but I do agree that it would look better without the boarder.. and maybe a bit smaller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really a hat guy, but I do agree that it would look better without the boarder.. and maybe a bit smaller Well, as far as the hats, the border can be removed, but getting the lettering smaller will be a challenge. The NPORA can be shrunk, but everything spelled out would be tough. More or less, you wont be able to read it. Oh, the shirts, I think, looked pretty good with the logo on the front and back. The logo on the sleeve, I can do without. Edited May 18, 2009 by 5523Pathfinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Yeah I was kind of thinking that the lettering would be a problem smaller. I have a friend who does this sort of thing as well, and have seen some of his work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She can also use the same design to embroider other things(sweatshirt, jacket, ect). Edited May 18, 2009 by RedPath88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavefromOZ Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 They look great, but the cost to ship to me would be out way the value of the shirt. I might look into one of our embroidery companies we use at work to get a hat and shirt done. I would do a beanie, but it doesnt get that cold here.

GrimGreg Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 $25 for a T-shirt? NOAS gets shirts with 3 color printing for about $8 for shirt and printing (quality shirts too not paper thin ones). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramon Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Nice job tell your mom she is really good I love the hat and it looks nice with the truck so sad it was removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5523Pathfinder Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 How much would that cost me? Probably a couple of extra bucks on top of the shirt price. Before we get too far, I want to make sure everyone is cool with how it looks(design, size, ect). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nunya Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Not sure if I like the hat(and I'm a hat person, logo just seems too big). The shirt I am liking though, curious as well about having personal truck pictures on the back, wonder what that would cost.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laxman0324 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I love both, my only suggestion for the flex fit hat is maybe having NPORA across the back in a smaller size and get rid of the border. I want one of each, and if we can get a pic of our truck on there I am all over that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevor Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I'm in for both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
