Would You Wear This?

Thinking of a few FF&W-styled tees. American Apparel 50/50 material, Portland printed, JB art. Let me know if there’s interest…

    Hi Jason,

    I like it and the color. How about olive too? Do you mean 50/50 cotton poly? I an 100% cotton guy. The blend makes me emit odors detectable by trout and um. . . other creatures. Those new micro fibers are OK though.

    I like it!

    @John—Thanks for the feedback. The material I am currently looking at is indeed 50cotton/50poly. I’ve used the exact same shirt for a couple of years (from American Apparel), and it wears well, washes/dries well, and takes a reasonable beating. They also do an organic cotton, too (I think). I haven’t committed to anything yet, but between responses from the E-List and the couple of comments here, I may run with some tee design before the holidays. Perhaps a poll is in order to choose the fish?

    @Aitor—To the point! Thanks, my friend…

    Sign me up! I hope you accept paypal and do the S&H stuff down here to Chile… So drop us a line (maybe through the e-list) when this great idea comes to life.

    Tight lines!

    @Marc, Grunde and Simon—Thanks, gents! I’m going to look into doing the shirts in two fabrics (the 50/50 has been great for me, but there also seems to be a 100-percent cotton contingent out there). I may release a design in one fabric, and add another fabric if I can balance the cost/return ratio (trust me when I say that I’d be thrilled if this project even manages to break even this year).

    I like it. I would definitely wear this around town and at the local stream…

    @All—Just downloaded a survey plug-in for the blog. Once I get the thing figured, I’ll run a survey or two about the tee in another post, and then get shirts on the way… Thanks to all who responded!

  10. Jason, I really like it too. Is there any thing on the back of the shirt? I also go for 100% cotton and the olive color sounds nice too.

  11. JB says:

    Bill—Nothing on the back (at least for this particular shirt series). I’ve gotten other votes for olive, as well (the first comment, and a couple of e-mails). Perhaps what I’ll do is offer the 50/50 in gray and the cotton in olive. Need to check color avail…
