Question VKG T-shirt

I am going to have some silk-screened VKG t-shirts made. These are the ones that will be one of the "free-bees" with the Performance Klasse car membership and will be available for general sale. The quality will be above what is available in our VKG store now since these will be real silkscreen. I am debating two items though...t-shirt color and design (what else is there right?)

I tend to like the design of this t-shirt (may add URL to the bottom of the back though). I like the grey color as well. Color is a no win situation to me because everyone likes something different and everyone uses the t-shirt for different reasons. I love black, but that gets pretty hot at car shows and therefore usually where grey or white shirts.

So, time for some input. What are your thoughts on the color and do you like this design or would you prefer something different. If different, what? And be realistic to what I can design. Honest opinions. No hurt feelings here. My vote is for the t-shirt above.

I will be working on the Select Klasse stuff soon. That will be more work and only ordered as a member joins.

I like that shirt but would prefer a white t-shirt.

Maybe a slightly larger logo.

Pre-shrunk shirts would be awesome...

Maybe the eagle logo on the back between the shoulders.

I like the design. :agree:

My vote would be for Grey or black. If the majority goes for Grey, I'm up for Grey, but either color would work for me.

you guys do a good job of proving my point on color choice.

seems like all like that design so far. i think the maroon negative is nice compared to just the logo alone. color matching during silkscreening has always been a challenge to me. i will work with the vendor though to make sure they come out maroon.

i like the slogan on the back too. something to set the t-shirt apart.

it is an option at a cost i'm sure. do you mean really having a pocket or just the logo in the pocket area? if the latter, the logo can be shrunk to fit there. personally, i like it large, but would like to know from all if a pocket logo is preferred over the chest logo.

i failed to ever mention that you can look at the VKG store on our site for some options and what we already have available for designs and logos as it stands now.

Black.

It don't show all the greasy spots I seem to accumulate on my clothes.

I like grey too, better for hot weather.
