If you want but most bikers stay away from that. pretty much like the MX5 = hairdresser and TVR = recovery van. Might sound funny but not worth it on a tee


But saying that maybe "no pink frames allowed"

or assless chaps lol

I think Chilli would buy them at least!

Indeed. Intended to pick up a ratty VFR once I'd passed my test. A battered 800 passed me today and I felt a pang of jealousy

It's not Pink!

would YOU really wear any of them outside the house other than for a PH meet?

This.

Cringe-worthy stuff. You'd end up having to explain it, and I'm assuming anyone wearing one would have a voice like Clarkson's anorak voice.

Can we have a Woosh Parrot over here please?

And on a T?

Apart from a few chuckles from myself, and several odd looks from Mrs Pints (who didn't understand even after I'd tried explaining), I'm generally disappointed with things.

No merchandise worth spending my money on so far, embarrassing (and, quite frankly, offensive) merchandise for the other linked sites, etc.

I used to be a defender of the PH shop and its foibles. Not anymore. If a deal comes up on ebay for something, I'll be taking my chances there before throwing money at the new shop.

A fair comment about Dread.

One thing I'm not liking about the new site is that there just doesn't seem to be a dedicated area for goodies other than t-shirts. When I go to the PH shop, I want to see PH goodies. I don't want to be bombarded with merchandise for other crap.

The one thing I'm liking so far is the plain PH smiley t-shirt.

Reflective PH stickers please as discussed here

[Stuart]

There are more designs waiting in the wings, and we'll be doing a lot more understated and less obvious shirts too.

As Paul has said, stickers are in production and will be going live soon along with mugs and mousemats.

Other stuff to follow in the New Year.

Ok, perhaps stuff aimed at the over 40's, some classy gear, I wouldn't wear those T shirts under my thermals or my cardigans.

And there's this thread where we can keep suggestions all in one place.

That's a great idea: a PH cardigan.

Design suggestions on a postcard.

Blimey the folks here don't half like a moan! They have said more stuff is coming, and that you can submit your own designs and still it isn't enough!

PH branded incontinence pants please to catch all the boiled piss.

[oobster]

So despite a 'PH Manager Bloke' and a 'PH Director Bloke' both posting on this thread since I queried the lack of larger shirts (admittedly in a joke-ish manner) no response has been forthcoming?

Similarly, my thread on Website feedback regarding the Members Map link being broken has been completely ignored too.

Hello? Are my posts somehow invisible? Is anyone there?

Seriously... I can go into Asda/Tesco/BHS/Debenhams/M&S/any other high street clothing retailer and be able to select XXXL T-Shirts, but not on an internet shop that specialises in selling T-Shirts?
