Default FB T-Shirts

Has there ever been any FB T-shirts made?
No FB swag on the HAMB site

Yes, Shelly had Fordbarn T's available prior to selling FB in 2010. I'll dig up some pictures that I attached on another post. For some reason this has zero priority with Ryan.

Are we the orphan child? I'd like a shirt if they were available and at a reasonable price.

Here is a FORDBARN "T" Shirt, that I have had since the Shelly days.
I think that they could actually sell a few. I wonder why they are not interested in making them.

Perhaps Ryan would grant someone on here an informal license to make and sell them.

He probably isn't interested because it can be tedious, time-consuming work with little return on your investment.

You folks that want Tee shirts might want to get in touch with Marcy on the HAMB. That is one of her lines besides doing other things. She may want to do something like that & get permission from the boss. MAYBE??

I think they could sell a good number of FB T's if someone in Atomic Industry took the time and initiative to have them made.
It may be tedious, time consuming work with little payback, but if the HAMB has them, why not something for FB?
Don't forget the FB logo is their property and cannot be used w/o their permission as this statement appears at the bottom of the page......"Steal our stuff, we'll kick your teeth in"

I'm not taking sides on this issue but I can tell you that having T-Shirts mad with silkscreened multi color logos is not an inexpensive endeavor to undertake. Last time I looked you had to order assorted sizes and a large minimum quantity so, the up-front out of pocket cost can be prohibitive, especially if you are having them made on spec. It has been my experience in situations like this where everyone is hot to trot, that is until they have to actually pay for the idem, be it a T-Shirt, Dash Plaque, etc.

The Cigar City Flatheads made Dash plaques commemorating one of our events, with most of the proceeds going to a charity... We couldn't even get our out of pocket cash back so, we were hesitant to offer up the water transfer decals but, they sold out in just over a weeks time, so you never know what will or won't sell. You've got to be willing to take a chance and commit to spending money...
