Why does KY not have a Hometown forum shirt?  Anybody know?  I'd like to see Dan'l Boone and Simon Kenton carrying AR's on an outline of the state with "The Dark and Bloody Ground" underneath.

Michael

Edited by Stump:

UPDATE 5-15:

Ok, we had a poll for the design of choice (in another thread) and we have a winner, #3

We also have a close second:

Both of these designs are available right now in the AR15.com store, under the "Build Your Own Shirt" section.  The logos are available in the drop down box choices.

Here's the link to the "Build Your Own Shirt" area of the AR15.com Store:  http://store.ar15.com/store/product.html?cat=1&prod=264

If you'd like to read more about the Build Your Own Shirts, our fearless
leader, "Goatboy" has a continuing thread about this product here:

Stump,

I have seen tacked threads in other HTF's that mention officially sanctioned arfcom hometown t-shirts started by the same DEV staff member Spawn. Was this a one time offer we missed out on or is that just how they sit up on-site sales??

Looks official to me.

Whoops, started the above post before anyone else had put up that thread, and didn't send it sorry.  I'd be in.

Well that is interesting.  I'm afraid I had no clue there were a few in circulation afterall.

Looking through Spawn's posts, led me to an official Store thread on just this topic from Goatboy himself:

http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=1&f=65&t=1127174


Now, in that thread they show that they clearly do not have logos built for KY, or most states for that matter, YET.  But he does say to contact them if our Hometown forum would like to get involved in a design.

So, the question is, would we like to get involved?  How many would like an official shirt?
 


Hellz yes Stump. Im down for a couple. Now all we need is for a resident Kentuckian with more artistic ability than me to come up with a nice design.

Side note, is anybody else down for a hooded sweatshirt option??

I'll take a T Shirt or two, maybe a hoodie depending on price.

As far as design, I say bolt on front, rifle on back(SBR would be my preference)!
Link Posted: 4/20/2011 12:48:14 PM EDT
[#19]
I could be down for one assuming we can all agree on a good looking design?

I'm thinking the bolt face logo on the front left breast and a full logo on the rear that would be the KY state outline with some crossed M4's or something along those lines?
Link Posted: 4/20/2011 1:27:38 PM EDT
[#20]
I'm down for more than one as well - Also gonna be looking for the big and tall flavors. Also, could we make sure they don't end up with cheap base shirts? I hate buying a 3x and it shrinks to a L after one wash.
Link Posted: 4/20/2011 2:17:03 PM EDT
[#21]
How about something like KY Sawgrass' avatar superimposed over a crossed M4 and AK? Then "ARFCOM KY HTF" arched over the top.

OK - keep in mind I suck with photo editing, this is just a visual of what I have in mind using some Colt Commandos (per the SBR request above)

ETA, updated to include boltface logo...

Quoted:
a crossed M4 and AK?

Just my opinion but no AK's! The only gun(s) that should be displayed on this shirt should be some variant of the AR-15\M-16\M4. I know there is an AK section here and a lot of members have them and love them but this is AR15.com so having an AK on the shirt (or any other weapon) just seems wrong to me.

Link Posted: 4/20/2011 4:45:42 PM EDT
[#24]
Great concept.

I'm all for the M4/AK idea. It is, after all, the "Home of The Black Rifle".

2 cents and all that, of course.
Link Posted: 4/20/2011 5:47:03 PM EDT
[#25]
I'll buy no matter what the design. I do think the AK would not be suitable for AR15.com.

I will work on a design tonight and post it either tonight or tomorrow sometime.

I would be down for a couple, probably in a Large. I like this last design or something simple like the bolt face over the state outline.

Semper Fi.

Id almost be down with more of a simple thing with a clean state outline and the BFL - Maybe something else small incorporated? I'm a fan of KISS-ish designs - There have been a number of states in there with more than one logo available, maybe one with the guns n such and one more simple?

I like this one if you take the gun out and move the BFL to where the gun is currently. or the first one either of those a good.

I really like the Boone and Kenton Dark and Bloody Ground idea mentioned earlier in this thread.

Possibly even without the flag. I like simple and subdued. Grey shirt, black state outline and BFL, something like that.

Finding usable silhouette images of the two is posing to be an issue right now.  If anyone can locate them let me know.

The white would work well on a Black t-shirt. The colors can be reversed for a gray T-shirt. They can even be done in shades of OD green or tan for a really subdued look on those color T-shirts.

ETA - I think it might look a little better like this....



I could make the boltface logo bigger but I tried that and I think it looks better like this? Just personal taste but the bigger the bolt face logo gets, the less I like it.

Oooh! I really like both of those.

I like this maybe with this small on the front left breast pocket area, and large on the back....would be cool in like OD green, black/white. This would be easier to print and cheaper since it's all single colors. It's got my vote!
