[Mr Will]

I've copied the list over to the wiki here: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Suggest that we stick to it so that people don't get missed and we can track who's paid. Can all those looking for a jersey at the moment please pop over and check the details are correct - we have a lot of missing sizes at the moment.

[Scott W]

I've put myself in the Wiki table twice as I need a top for myself and one for my wife also as she'd like one. Wasn't sure how else to order the two separate sizes otherwise.

[S6PNJ]

So who has approached PH Towers and asked them for permission to do yet another run? Rob_T did all this last time but I don't think he would want to run a second batch, so who is doing the 'political' bit as well as the co-ordination bit?

[TomE]

Would there be any opportunity to switch the colours around a little on the current design if another run is made without it affecting cost? I was lucky enough to get a shirt last time round and would like another one, but I'm not sure whether I really need two identical ones and I'm sure I'm not alone.

I was just thinking that it may help to increase the order numbers slightly if, say the black was changed for navy or maybe the yellow for red, as it would mean that those who already have them may be more likely to order again?

I'm not trying to throw a spanner in the works in any way, and I'm sure I'd end up ordering one either way eventually, but it was just a thought.

I have no issue with another run of PH shirts being done

My preference would be to stick to the same design - I like it and it makes it easier for us to spot each other out on the road if we know what colours to look for.

[Gruffy]

I'd only be interested in a fresh design, to be honest. I already have one of the originals. I'm happy to do the design work and I know there are no production charges for basic designs. There's a £120 set up charge if we want to do something completely custom, that doesn't use their base designs as a starting point. Split between everybody that's only £5 or so - not a huge premium if people were keen.

[TheLemming]

Any advice on sizing? Happy to get another order window as I missed the last one somehow....

I'm normally a small, 36" chest. Looking at the sizing however the medium looks as if it would be quite baggy and the small a bit too small?

Ditto to TomE. I seem to have been lined up for a new shirt in this new run when I'd only want this design in different colours as I have the yellow / black combo. Yellow for red or black for Red - whatever I don't mind.

[Gruffy]

Swapping the yellow for red is probably the most universal/generic colour way. Size wise, these do come up a little baggier than other jerseys. I don't think we can mix the Pro fit and the Regular fit in the same order (for discount purposes) and I'm guessing not everybody would want a close fit?

[R1gtr]

I already have one of the originals and like the exclusivity of it, I mentioned I would be interested in a new Jersey but I think the colours should be changed to either:

-same as before but Red in Place of the Yellow

-swap the black and white round, and red instead of yellow trim.

Maybe Gruffy could draw up the above options and we could take a vote, I think the original design with new colour scheme will sell many more copies.

[Gruffy]

Please excuse the crude PS'ing.

Option 1 (try to see past the crap quality - I just 'inverted' the colours for a quick example)





Option 2

Edited by Gruffy on Thursday 3rd July 18:20

[Gruffy]

I like option 1 for the extra variety (for those that already have an original design). Black on the torso also disguises the bellies of the Powerfully Built. The pockets would be white if we did a straight inversion but I think maybe keeping them black would make this a good jersey for stty weather, hiding the spray well.

[R1gtr]

Well done Gruffy I like 'Option 1' I would definitely buy one or two of those.

[yellowjack]

Cheers, Gruffy!

Guys,

I am on my iPad too, so can't change the list either!

But please put me down for two XL shirts please.

Thanks,

Nige.

[ALawson]

I assume this the second design!

I'm a 38" chest and in real clothes am a medium all day long, I took a med in the PH top two runs ago and whilst it fits it's a little tight under the arms, fine in the summer when I'm slimmest and not layering up but too tight for winter/pies.
Bought a large last run and it's just right, enough give to layer under but not at all flappy in the wind.
