Which looks best? Note these are the back with the standard logo on the front. We're trying to get a feel for what we should order for the show coming up. Many thanks in advance.

Erik,

Jodi and I vote for black. She also suggests, if possible, include some type of border or fade the edges and either make the image oval or just round (soften) the edges.

I like both. For me I would probably get the black one since it doesn't show dirt like the white one would.

Erik,
I think that it is great to get back to the show t-shirt not being generic. I voted for the black one for the same reasons as RAY.

voted white. Like the shirt looks very much like an In n Out shirt. White ones are always more popular

Actually here in California Black is now roughly 60-80% especially in the car sale area. And check out In&Out's latest shirts. http://shop.in-n-out.com/2013-Black-Now-and-Then/PABGIBAOOHGELGLH/Product

They're moving to black too. I've had more people that work on cars tell me that they don't even buy white shirts anymore because they don't stay clean very long. FYI, these shirts will be for purchase only. However, you will be getting a totally different one for free if you registered for the HB show and it's not generic either. It's only one color though and not as detailed. Thanks guys. Keep the comments coming.

My first choice is not the black or the white. As already mentioned, white gets dirty very quickly and the black is hot in the sun. Most of the shows around here have gone to the gray shirts, which are a compromise between the two evils.

OK Erik, I'll play. I too would go the Black t-shirt route. Californian's are used to the heat and if it's hot, it's hot. The color of the shirt doesn't make much difference unless you're standing in direct sunlight for a considerable length of time. Are we relegated to sizes smaller than 2XL? Cause that just ain't going to cut it for big boy's like David H and myself. Also if the event give-away t-shirt could be made in 3XL then maybe I could have one that I could actually wear. Not complaining, I have learned to deal with it and I love the design artwork. Just asking the question. Good luck to whomever has to make the final decision. I most likely won't be easy.

Hey Frank, I'll make sure to order a few of these in 3XL for you guys. Would you mind if they were a few bucks more? I don't think the free shirts will come in over XL. Of course I'll take care of you guys. And I think we're going black to see how they sell. Might try to do both white and black.

Erik-

Great artwork! Frankly, I think both will be popular. I don't say that to avoid making a choice, it's just that I think different folks have different preferences, as the above comments would confirm. I know what a drag it is hauling boxes home after an event, but I think they will sell well, and having both colors would make them sell even better. Best of luck in your decision!

Regards,

Steve

What's crazy about this thread is that I have 300 views and only 20 have voted. Usually people are dying to give their opinion on the forums! ;)

Black or grey for me. I can't even get through lunch with a clean white shirt.

So, I take it the shirts are going to be black? Just a hunch.

I'm already on the hook for an XL and need another one XXL

Price, please?

Sorry guys, we decided to not move forward with these shirts. However, you will be getting a new tee shirt design for this show as part of your registration.
