    Hi everyone,

    Would there be any interest in some AEM Limited Edition T-shirts?

    For those of you that have one of our first batch of t-shirts, these would be very similar. Same base specs:

    - ATC™ EUROSPUN RINGER TEE. ATC9001 – Charcoal Heather/Black
    - 60% cotton and 40% polyester

    High quality material....first batch turned out great (we have none of the "popular" [haha] sizes left).


    Here is a mock-up of what the Limited Edition shirts will look like (I photo-shopped the emblem to be used onto a photo of me wearing one of the shirts from the first batch):

    View attachment 17111

    We are hoping people are willing to pre-order, and also be OK with not actually receiving the shirt for a little while (likely a couple months). Here is a little background as to why.

    Supporting local is a big deal for us. And right now things are highly uncertain for many local businesses due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

    @Miss Tesla runs a small business based out Neepawa called Promo Time. http://promotime.ca/ Her team creates all sorts of promotional items. High quality stuff. @Miss Tesla 's team created the first batch of AEM t-shirts, and like I said already, they turned out great!

    Promo Time recently had to shut down (non-essential business). I appreciate 100% why this is necessary, but the reality is that this is very hard on a small business - both owners and employees depend on the income to live. We want to send a little business @Miss Tesla 's way for when she is able to open back up.

    We are going to sell the AEM Limited Edition t-shirts for $24.99+tax. That price will include shipping/delivery to your door.

    If you think you would be interested in pre-ordering an AEM Limited Edition t-shirt and supporting a couple another small local businesses (Promo Time and Angler's Edge Mapping), please let us know by responding to this thread. Thanks for your consideration!

    I’ll take one. Will PM with sizing.

    Any chance @Miss Tesla can throw the logo onto a kids t-shirt as well?

    @Jneuf (and everyone)

    Hold off on the PMs for now. If there seems to be sufficient interest, we will create a Paypal link on our website to deal with the pre-orders. From that link you will be able to select the size you want.

    @Miss Tesla can confirm the specifics, but I suspect we can work something out with regards to a kids t-shirt. Thanks man!

    I can vouch for the quality cotton on the 1st run of shirts. (or maybe mine is the 2nd run?) Very comfy nice cotton.

    I love the hoodie idea.

    I also really like logos that run down the sleeve

    Another idea for logo placement is on the hood itself, placed so when the hood is down (which is always where it is for me), it's right side up and visible from the back....or along the cheek area when the hood is up, which makes it pretty visible when hood is down.

    Just my opinion on coolest hoodie logo placement would be-- big logo on back, one logo on one sleeve, and a small logo on opposite chest-- where a breast pocket would be, just a bit higher. An alternative to AEM logo on sleeve would be your "hook slogan"- We Survey. You Fish!"...or "We survey." on one sleeve, and "You fish!" on the other. ...just a few ideas. I won't be offended if they're poo ideas ;)

    I'd pay 80 bucks for that.

    Good on you guys supporting small business!

    Hoodies sound like a great idea also. We will think about that a bit, as there are a few more design considerations I think to consider (good ideas shared already, thanks guys).

    But to maintain focus - if you are interested in a t-shirt, please let us know with a comment.
