AO Custom Jerseys

Pandora's Box 101

Tom, Im supposed to be taking the bus up to osan this weekend and I will scope out prices for 50 and 100, as per your request.

So far my concerns...

1. material... I am unfamiliar with what the old diablo jerseys were made of. All I ever had was one of the older JT jerseys. Also keep in mind that Im getting these made in the same country that the Starter and CCM factorys are in. So a real nice hockey blank could conceivably be used. I was looking at these CCM jerseys (NHL) and at 18 bucks a pop we cant go wrong.

2. Printing process... I have to go research the economy on what methods are available. If any one has any insight on the different types of screen printing email me at [email protected]. Also if you guys want to splurge a couple of bucks on sewn on letters and numbers lemme know...

3. I need AGD approval once this done so lets keep it market friendly.

4. shipping... It has to be done priority mail... the only prob is that if I send 50 packages out in a week they will think I'm black marketing (which I'm not).

5. Price... Should get more reasonable with the more orders that are made. Like I said I'm not trying to make a profit just trying to do my part. I am projecting a price between 35 and 50 shipped its a big ballpark but; these should be sweet! Also if tom wants a free one for letting us do this I'm going to have to spread the cost. LOL.

6. designs... keep em flowing I will set up a new thread with a vote on monday/tuesday. Once I can figure out this Poll posting stuff! ~edweird = Forum nOOb~

Lastly Thanks for the support and Submit more ideas!!!!

sounds good.

For materials: My High School hockey teams practice jerseys would be a GREAT material. They were bought at a local store, but I will see if on the tag it mentions anything. They are really thin, light, and breathable, and it doensnt have the tradmark big mesh holes of regular hockey jerseys. It really would be perfect.

printing process, i really dont know. but, i love the idea of the name and number on the back but that isnt realistic. Could we just put Airgun and a # on all of em or something? or is it possible to get our names and #s of choice on each?

seems like approval wont be a problem from Tom.

get back to us on price.

we have tons of nice designs...and im gonna make a new one today.

I say we use the new Lions logo....come on guys, its new! hehe, rock on brothers

[edweird]

I also like the new logo and it would be far more screen printable than the original. But I would modify the crest between the lions to be more of a dark gun metal color. Something for me to work on. Also remember this is a AO jersey first and a AGD jersey second. At least is the direction I was going.

Now to retool the new AGD logo. wish I had photoshop. results at 11...

Also remember this is a AO jersey first and a AGD jersey second.

why? i like the idea of having the AO logo on the back bottom under the #.....but i think the lions on the front would be better

[TITAN]

i dont think they should have a large AO.ORG sign on them because then its like supporting the site more than the company. i think it should have some airgun designs type thing on the front. have the new style agd logo somewhere. have like the name and number like deded has on his design, and have maybe automags.org logos on the sleeves or somethin like that all on footemps first design

[Rob @ DNR]

What ever design is picked, I am in for a minumum of 3 jerseys right now. I am going to see if my team wants to outfit them selfs in these. If they do, I will get 10...

[ThePatriot]

35-50? That is fine, but i will have 2 jersies then...but i probably would switch off, even if i wasnt gonna wear the jersey im still gonna get one because i think it is a great idea and something i would really like having. MAY THE BEST DESIGN WIN!!!!

*edit* LOL forgot the most important part, i think Deded's is the best jersey so far...very great design with the blue, i like it a lot

[edweird]

Ok here is the answer about the AO jersey vs ADG jersey arguement about 3 posts up...

As a random non-AGD employee I feel that it is improper for me to ask to design, market and sell "official" merchandise. A highly AGD dominant jersey with little or no Automags.org (also an ADG property but not a profit generating engine) influence would cross the before mentioned line.

So not that that little unplesantry is over... im totally in favor of having the AGD logo on it ... new or old. personally I like what I did with the new one but the masses will speak next week.

By the by here is my redesigned logo I know it should be on the redesigned agd logo thread but I made it for this prodject so take a gander

[Snooky]

Did anyone like any of my 3?

[Snooky]

this one is my fav of all the ones i made

[Lockawam]

I like the one that snooky jsut posted. It has mainly AGD stuff on it and a little of AO. I think that is almost perfect. All it needs is a little more on the back.

[TITAN]

it needs the ao logos horizontal on the sleeves and the new agd logo and dededs style back then it would be cool

[Snooky]

yeah i dont have anything but paintbrush so the ao signs are supposed to be going down sleeves but i could turn them like i wanted. I wanna put the same yellow and white stuff on back but i cant figure a good way how maybe foo who originally came up with the dots on side can make one with the dots on back. I like mine too but it needs something more on back like the dots then i think we got something goin. I dont like the new logo and the old one reminds me of medievil times so i like how it looks. If they can make something not so patched together i would like it more. I dont care if anyone uses the jerseys i made to come up with thier own ideas seeing as how i ripped everyone elses graphics off. I hope u guys didnt mind.

[Snooky]

heres my 4th try. I like this one best now because it has some cool stuff on back so its not so boring. Tell me what u think.

[Snooky]

pic didnt show ill try again. this is 4th one.
