We're thinking about getting some t-shirts printed for the Scottish Smallholder & Grower Festival to promote the RBST. RBST are on-board, and as you'll see the shirts will be co-branded. We want to gauge the potential interest before getting a load printed though, and would welcome feedback.
These would cost £10 each with £2 of that going directly to RBST. We're looking at two colours - grey marl and black. Images of draft 'designs' are attached - the lighter colour one is supposd to be grey. (http://www.accidentalsmallholder.net/forum/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)
Some questions - would you buy one of these as they stand, and if so which one(s)? If not, would you buy one if they were better designed/had a different slogan, or would you not consider buying one at all?
No commitment - we won't be sending you an invoice! - just need some honest feedback please.
Ta,
Dan

I dare to be rare - and rbst member and would like any of those to show off at the mart - black or Grey is great for me as I have never acquired the persil effect.

I think t-shirts are a super idea. Personally, I am not so into slogans, and would prefer a t-shirt that just had the names of the organisations, but I am probably in the minority, I would think.

Prefer the peppa to the perm
Just grey and black? Would prefer another colour. The greeny one was nice...
If you go with peppa and just these colours, I'd buy a black one. I expect I'd buy a black one if you went with perm, but I wouldn't like it as much :D
-
Yes a good idea, but if you can get one to fit me someone at the factory will get paid off :roflanim: :roflanim: Will have to get me a T A S t shirt do you do them in long sleeves please.

Love the t-shirt with both logos on idea. Not so keen on the slogan idea-sorry.
Would prefer a few images of rare breeds perhaps? Just my thoughts, not a criticise.

Also if I have a choice I would opt for v neck to round neck

Not in the UK. That's a US company with a trademark registered only in the US. :)

I like the peppa one in grey but would prefer it in green ideally.
I like the slogan.

Not sure if I am allowed to cast a vote as I am not located in or around Scotland, but for what it is worth, I like the Peppa design but not in grey. Green or blue would be a nice colour :eyelashes:

I'm not in Scotland either, but prefer the black peppa.

Thanks all, and you don't have to be in Scotland to express an opinion, any comments welcome. :)

We might do a black one with just the logos - for the understated look and a green one with the logo and slogan for those who want to make a statement.
Looks like peppa is the preferred font.
We wont be able to do sleeves and V necks though - just too much stock to carry for what's not likely to be a HUGE seller.
Further comments still welcome ;D

Thanks for the feedback. Colour of t-shirt is really hard to get a consensus on. Our TAS t-shirts are all green, and we've had a lot of people say they'd prefer them in grey or black, and a few of the comments here say the opposite! The difficulty with a green shirt here is that both logos feature green, which means we're restricted to rendering the logos in monochrome.
So, we're almost settled on this, and will be producing a black polo with the two embroidered logos (see below) and the gray cotton t-shirt with the slogan 'Smallholders dare to be rare'.
Now, who wants to order one? :D
-
I would like to order a black polo, please - what do I have to do?

We need to price and order them first. :)
They will be for sale at the Festival, and we might be able to post some out beforehand if we get them made up soon enough.
We'll keep this thread updated and if we do decide to sell them mail order you'll be able to order online.

excellent, thank you!
