Troy, couple questions ... after May 3rd will they no longer be available? The wording seems to suggest that. Also, I see two options, one of which is American Apparel for more $$.

Don't know much about t-shirts but DO like lighter weight fabrics for Ts. Would you agree with this description: http://www.reddit.com/r/Teespring/comments/2odozy/whats_the_difference_between_a_hanes_tagless_tee/

Correct. You have 10 days to order. After that, you can only get one if 10 more people agree to pay for one.

Hanes is pretty much a regular tshirt. American apparel shirts are nice, slightly thicker, but the fit is different and they run slightly smaller.

Now I'm confused. I thought the American Apparel Triblend would be thinner/lighter fabric, not thicker? I'm wearing one right now that's light years from a normal all-cotton inexpensive T for comfort.

all of my american apparel shirts are thicker. but I guess they're not triblend.
So maybe they're not thicker - but they are a premium shirt.
I do not know.

Doesn't look like they ship to OZ....What's the best way for us Aussies to get our hands on a few shirts?
Title: Re: 2015 WKC T-shirts AVAILABLE NOW!!
Post by: pbe gummi bear on April 26, 2015, 02:13:59 PM
@Hogsy, if you want to organize the shirts for the Aussies, ship them to my house and I can Agent for OZ. You'll save a few dollars if you coordinate and order together.  Lmk!

I could actually offer that pretty cheap!!

Multi color printing gets expensive

Post by: evsky on April 26, 2015, 06:31:23 PM
yes  @Hogsy I'm keen although id prefer a white shirt if one will be available? It gets too hot down here for black most of the time. Grey would be best just saying.

I can make a white one,  but I need illustrator help from someone

I would love a white one as well! Sorry I'm not an illustrator though. :(

I'd like a white one, too.
Title: Re: 2015 WKC T-shirts AVAILABLE NOW!!
Post by: addicted-to-smoke on April 27, 2015, 08:06:13 AM
I'd go for an inexpensive white. But there's something about a white shirt and black kettle that might remind me a little too much like Weber (the company) and not WKC. Colored kettle, white shirt?

And then I want a reproduction Weber apron, like the ones from the '50s or '60s. And maybe a pony too. Because I don't have a pony.

Post by: Troy on April 27, 2015, 08:22:56 AM
i was planning on doing a yellow logo on a white shirt. I'm worried about the lettering being hard to read though.

black logo and black lettering on a white shirt would be the cheapest (single color, single side)

Pony!

Yellow on white would be hard. Red seems a little much. Maybe blue, or, I don't know, maybe, uh, Green!

Black on white would be cool. The large circle on the back. More expense, but a small pocket size logo on the front.

Does the printer require  ".ai"  format?

Printers can sometimes take a PDF but you'd want to design it in Illustrator first.
Title: Re: 2015 WKC T-shirts AVAILABLE NOW!!
Post by: dazzo on April 27, 2015, 10:22:06 AM

Yeah, but it seems the vector work is already done. I would think it just needs a color correction. Although, now that I think about it, makes sense if the original artwork is already in  .ai        ;D


Let's get do-it-yourself blanks and have your local airbrush buddy fill in your favorite kettle color....

I think I'd better go be quiet now              8)

@Troy I'm decent with illustrator - color changes, rotations etc etc I can do no problem. I like dazzo's white with black above. Even a plain white T with just the solid black "WKC kettle" and no other text might be cool. Front could have a smaller version on the chest but with "Weber Kettle Club" underneath. So many options 8)

The Aussies have placed there order
Thanks for the offer Gummi and Brian but turns out they do ship to OZ and postage is reasonable. It's just that dam exchange rate!!!
Thanks for organising them Troy
