Love the IMKY logo for our group.  I was thinking it would be cool to have tshirts with the same logo...  just sayin'...

    OOOOO - I second that! However, my group might consist of only 2 of us...IM Cozumel.

    I think it is a great idea, but likely one that RnP will tell us to handle on our own. Dealing with the "apparel" thing makes them a bit crazy. I imagine if we did it on our own it MIGHT be ok. Would need to get the race specific logos.

    Grant, our amazing logo guy, can get them for you in Tshirt layout. I'd just ask this be consolidated...i.e. not every shirt saying somethign different...

    On our end it's design, working with a printer, minimum order quantities, taking orders, payments, tracking sales and shipping. We'd rather you handle it and we kick in some dough to help make it happen.

    That said, I could see an EN 2010 Ironman Tour t-shirt that incorporates all of our little custom logo's, the Four Keys, etc. A Team-only that only you guys get/are allowed to wear.

    I really like the idea of the EN Tour Tshirt!!

     While I like the "EN Tour" idea (and will love it when I do my first full), what about using something like Cafe Press? Doesn't that give you the option of doing one-off's without having to worry about inventory, etc.?

    FWIW- I LOVE my red 4-keys Race Day T-shirt from last year. Really cool design, and they stood out and made it easy to spot other ENers (or EN Sherpas) on race day.

    I like the IM Tour shirt idea!

    Okay, since I brought it up, I suppose I should volunteer to organize this. However, not sure where to start. RnP, ideas? Anyone else got ideas? I'm open to suggestion!

    I just did technical shirts for the Texas Independence Relay team I was on. My guy did a great job at a reasonable cost (IMHO). I would be happy to get him to give us an estimate when we get a logo, color, etc. He can do men's and women's styles/fits or unisex.

    It still breaks my heart I didn't get a 4 keys shirt....screw up on my part on that one....I won't make that mistake again.....so I thought I would get involved.

    What Nemo said: we have a red four keys shirt that everyone inside EN should have for race weekend...as it's the easiest way to see who is / isn't on EN (or a family of EN). That would be step one. If you want to go above and beyond that, then we could endorse an IM tour shirt...but if you want your own solo one, we can just post the logos and you go to cafepress on your own?

    I would love a red four keys shirt. I was going to order one quite a while back, and Rich told me to wait. Any info. on that? I definately want one!
    I still think that an IM tour shirt would be cool. If you don't mind posting logos, then I'd be fine with going to Cafepress for my own.
    Bryan, thanks for the offer!

    Barbara,
    My guy can do small runs so even if there were a few of us we could make this happen. I would suggest something like - order going in this date....you are in or out....in other words, we have received your cash or not....then we can figure out a way to ship....just saying....

    Does Cafepress do tech shirts? How much are they, if anyone knows?
