a couple idea for shirts

zmancbr · 10-30-2008, 04:23 PM

I voted for the sunset one, since I love the design, But I would almost certainly buy any or all shirts if they were made. You have to have something to wear when herfin'!

Scottw · 10-30-2008, 04:57 PM

I'd buy one of each. The sunset pic is awesome but the charter member looks pretty cool as well.

By what process would you print the sunset one? I used to own a skateboarding clothing company, currently design everything for my wife's company and have a good deal of experience in the design and printing on clothing.

Heat transfers would be about the only way replicate it exactly but they wear off or crack after a few washes... screen printing is the way to go, but getting that picture to come out (along with the drop-shadowing on the letters and things like that) would be fairly difficult and certainly expensive.

The Charter Member one would be very simple and straight forward... plus, white shirts are very inexpensive.

What about a dye sublimation for the sunset? I've got a few of those that hold up incredibly well. Don't know if it can be done in any other color but white though.

BTW, I'm partial to the Asylum but would seriously consider the sunset as well.

Now that I look again, what about the Asylum logo on the front pocket area and the sunset full size on the back?

I agree ^^^^^, the sunset design would look great on a white tee, but it needs to be screenprinted in 4 color process, getting good seperations then finding a good printer... and your done. The good thing about a design like that is you keep the film or art, and if you need more later thats a big expense you'll avoid.

The first tee charter member tee would be cool, print a couple hundred, limited ed.s "sewn with pre-embargo Habano seed cotton

... it works with the cigars, Keep it one or two colors screenprinted cheap and cool, print white on black, and black on white. one screen, easy.

I used to print a lot of tees.

Just playing around. It might be cool to transform it into a simple comic type image, and look very nice embroidered on a nice polo, (ash grey colored, of course...

)

TripleF · 10-31-2008, 02:48 PM

One on the right for a Tee.
One on the left for a polo!

replicant_argent · 10-31-2008, 03:05 PM

still screwing around....

drob · 10-31-2008, 04:00 PM

I would think the colored one would offer more choices in the color of the shirt you put it on. But, I like the charter member as white on black, on the back.

NCRadioMan · 10-31-2008, 05:30 PM

I like them both!

Rockestone · 10-31-2008, 07:49 PM

One of each please. You could have the charter on the front breast pocket and the Club Asylum color design large and in charge on the back. Sweet.

just trying to catch up on the shirt issue, are the two pics here the only two or has it been narrowed down to these two? anyone used the IP addy as the inmate number?

poker · 11-01-2008, 07:56 AM

No, they are not the only 2. These are just a couple ideas we came up with.

BTW mmblz got the charter member one up on a white T.

RHNewfie · 11-14-2008, 08:38 AM

I like the plain white but I think I'd do white text on black. Just a thought.

RHNewfie · 11-14-2008, 08:44 AM

Oops, just saw the link for the shirts. Anyone order one yet? Also, anyone know if you order a black one if the text will be in white?

color of the design does not change.
the website will show you a preview when you select a color.
there's a thread somewhere - someone posted a couple pictures of one the shirts.
