That was the other reason I didn't persue it further. I KNOW there would be huge demand for them, but having hundreds, or mor likley thousands of them just doesn't jive.
Maybe the boss will change his mind, -The JJ has sponsors. - Alliance members give him money.. - You can't flame idiots anymore... The rules have changed, this place is mainstream now.
I dont really see the difference between t-shirts and patches. As far as the other stuff, yeah there has to be a cut off point somewhere. We dont need chones, shower curtains, floor mats and seat covers but patches would be cool.
wow.. a HAMB shower curtain....yes!!! i could be on the phone and say 'well, i gotta go shower with HAMB" that would fuck them up!!!
How about HAMB Energy Drink! Always thought it'd be cool to duplicate the HAMB tags with your screen name. Front pocket size,of course.
I Think A Patches Like The Logo Would Be Very Cool I Be In For A Few Aslong As Ryan Gets A % For The Hamb
I really don't see the difference between the stickers we put on our cars and patches that get put onto our jackets...yep, someone's bound to put a Jalopy Journal or H.A.M.B. sticker on their import daily driver...but the point is showing support (and giving financial support) for the place we like to be...and if they're only being sold here, like the Alliance Member firewall tags or the stickers, then I'm all for it...that's why I wanted them personalized, then it'd be like buying a Best Wishes Gordy, XOXOX autograph from some famous broad when your name's Ed...
As I said earlier,,,I don't care one way or the other,,,but,,,if Ryan don't like it ,,,it ain't gonna happen,,HRP
I believe Ryan would want to have the control in anything that has the HAMB logo on it. Being the #1 thing is to limit it and not saturate the market. He could have done that years ago and been a very wealthy person but is doing the right thing and making it limited to HAMB members like his decals and shirts and the latest Alliance Tags he has done . He is keeping it down to earth for all of us here. I am waiting for the next HAMB shirt run that should be coming up in the near future!!!!!!!!!!!!! KNUX!
I can understand that, and by all means he should have control of it...I wish they made H.A.M.B. shirts in my size, but we can't win em all...and I'm gonna try like hell to get some decals the next time an order goes up...
How many of you guys thought it was cool,the first time you saw a Von Dutch hat? Now since Paris Hilton wore one on her reality show,that shits everywhere. Looses it's value,in my opinion. Everytime I see someone wearing something with VD on it,I ask them,"do you know who Von Dotch was?" "No",of course.
Ah, the old "Kennith Howad hates you." It would be a shame to have to make "Ryan Cochran hates you" bumper stickers too.
I'm surprised the boss hasn't chimed in yet...I'd send him a PM, but I don't want to bug him...he'll find the thread soon enough...it'd be nice to have H.A.M.B. patches made by a member and be sold exclusively to members only, which would significantly lower the "Von Dutch effect"...
Good point! I'm a patch collector, but I can see how it could get out of hand. And I've asked trend whores that same question.
i don't think it will happen. if it does it should be a limited number.would love to see the stickers come back.what should be done to help out with the site is to make up some HAMB stuff in limited numbers ,say 100 hats, buttons, decals and shirts and have a week long auction one piece at a time and the item goes to the highest bidder.it would make some $ to help out the HAMB site and will go to someone that wants it bad.bidding wars are fun to watch sometimes.another thing that a few of us would love to get is whats in the back window of Steve Caballero's of the Road Zombies car.what do ya got to do to get one of those?I don't skate but I'll learn if i can get one of those.lol.one last thing.someone was talking about getting too much stuff floating around and I agree 100%.I got a shirt when they went on sale.I only put it on for car shows or swap meets.still looks as good today as when i bought it.there's another HAMB'er that wears his to the car shows and swap meets around here.after seeing his on him every time I put mine on it lost its apeal.still cool but lets keep the numbers down.still like your shirt Jim.lol
I would gladly join the HAMB ALLIANCE at a discounted rate if I could receive a patch instead of a TAG. That tag thing would be the most expensive peice on my car. A patch I could smear grease on it and match my car perfectly.lol
i just dont fuckin get it... the alliance aint about a patch or a tag. . . and trust me, them tags would be less expensive than the patches IF they ever got made.
I can make a 3 1/2" patch with up to 12,000 stitches for $6.00. I've got 30 embroidery heads. Could turn them out real quick...with permission of course.
Have you guys ever thought Ryan is avoiding this for a reason? You should have left this back on page 3 where it was this morning. patches= no if were voting..
I can get em ALOT cheaper, as cheap as $2.15 each for 100 2"ers. I could get them even cheaper employee priced, that's customer price, I would donate 100 to auction if I can keep 1 for myself too bad the idea got shot down.
I can understand, I would like a shirt or patch just to wear to auto events to help spot other members, and so they could spot me. If you walk up to a stranger and say, "Are you on the HAMB?"they reply,"Ham? No, roast beef!" Or just look at you funny.
if i see anyone with a HAMB patch on their jacket i am cutting it off with a very large very sharp knife.
What is the difference between a patch and a shirt?? Well other than the patch i could put on my own shirt since they don't make HAMB t's to fit me. If Ryan supports it so will I, if not I will not.
