@Zax that's all well and good if the rest of us were (cough, cough) male models. Notice how many wanted 3X plus? If the typical age of this group is as 'experienced' as I think, a bunch of us have shirts older than you, too!
In my humble opinion, You have handled the merch thing perfectly if not better. You dont push it ! its there if you want it ! It may never come this way again ! And when the really cool shit hits like the shift knob or tag toppers for example, it is a complete feeding frenzy. Leave Em wanting more. Dont change a thing !!! Since a lot the people on the board have become.......OLD......... we find ourselves with the lower part of our arms waving back at us when we raise our hands. Since this is pretty much universal, is there any chance of a long sleeve brick shirt ?
I SWEAR, I've said this before and I'll say it again. I wish I bought multiples of the this shirt. Someone has finally put a saying, a motto, a line to my life......or at least I feel like it describes my being. If I can steal this...... "HOT RODS AGAINST THE WORLD"
I liked that shirt too... They sold okay, but not great. I should do em again in comfort colors... For some reason, I really want to do a green shirt right now. Like, grass green.
Truth be told I liked the shirt design when I bought it and the saying was good. I didn't think of how much it would matter to me until I got it and started to think about it more. It captured my feelings and love for old hot rods and all things against the world. I like green (The Jalopy "paint" shirt) and brown (the early JJ shirt)...it's still one of my favorites even faded with holes.
OMG Yes Please! I still have them hanging in my shop even though they are all used up. The idea and the art work was amazing! I bought a bunch each year and gave them to friends for Xmas presents. They also still have them hanging in their shops. Looking forward to this if it happens again.
Got my Brick Red shirt today. Bitchin looking. Comparable quality to my favorite shirt from Kennedy Bros. Also warned the wife about washing it alone in cold water. She looked at the HAMB logo but doesn't understand? Thanks Ryan
I sent my wife and daughter the links to the new shirts hoping they are looking for Christmas gift ideas for me. Fingers crossed!
I wish I bought multiples of the this shirt. @1oldtimer What a true statement based on ordering one , then waiting a week to order another one and it is already sold out. XL is the fastest size to sell out in most T's here and elsewhere. That is what I have been wearing since the days of Penney's white crew neck T's as a teenager. Yikes... that makes me very old. Hello, When this post came out, I went to the section to look at what was posted. I normally gravitate toward Black shirts, t-shirts and long sleeve t-shirts. The majority of my shirts are black and separated for the seasons. Yes, So Cal has seasons, especially along the coastline. During the winter, the short sleeve T-shirts get a well deserved break. The chilly mornings and sitting on a few benches with my wife all bundled up in her sweatshirts and jackets is cause to put on a hooded sweatshirt, as well as long sleeve shirts. But, by the afternoon, it becomes t-shirt weather most of the year. For some reason, this winter, the temperature is either colder or we are getting rather old and long sleeve T-shirts are the mode of the day. So, the weather predicts what we wear. I had hoped to have a couple of other long sleeve shirts that fall into the rotation daily/weekly. Jnaki My wife was looking at what I was doing on my laptop. She then bought me the latest HAMB T-Shirt for an early Christmas present. Now, in record time, the new T-Shirt arrived at my doorstep and is ready for the whole T-Shirt/shorts mode. But, for now, it resides in the “wait until it gets warmer” mode as it is 45-47 degrees along the coastal beaches and cities. It stays that way until after breakfast, then it got to a high of 60 with the shade areas colder. Definitely long sleeve t-shirt and if we venture outside, hoody weather. Yes, we know it is winter and elsewhere folks are wearing gloves, jackets and long leg pants with boots. All of that style is still around waiting until it gets really cold all of the time. But, for the past several years, it is T-Shirt and shorts weather almost 365-6 days of the year in coastal So Cal. Note: My wife says my legs have gotten dipped in cold water so much that nothing phases it when outside in cold weather. So, lucky me, it is T-Shirt and shorts all year long. A nice rotation of t-shirts for spring-summer will include the excellent black HAMB/Jalopy Journal latest T-Shirt. YRMV Well, I would like to order another black T-Shirt with the roadster design, but the orders need to go to everyone else that likes the shirt, too. So, if I wait for a couple of weeks closer to Christmas, it will probably be sold out like all of the popular HAMB T-shirts. Awwww! Thanks for a fast delivery and an excellent T-Shirt… It is under the tree as of this posting...
