View Full Version : Which two WhiteBlaze hiking shirts should we carry? please read post before you vote
This is not a post to start taking order for the WhiteBlaze shirt. I want your feedback one which two shirts we should stick with. I have created a voting poll that will take multiple votes so please only vote twice and pick the two shirts that you will like to see us have.
This is not to place order, it is just for feedback. Order will come later.
I went and picked up the our sample hiking shirts this past Saturday. I have included links that will take you to the pictures.
I want to stick to two basic styles of hiking shirts. This would make it easier on me when it comes to ordering them and shipping them. Could everyone that is interested look these shirts over and let me know which ones they would be interested in.
Here are some suggestions of what I think would be the best. I think shirt shirt C & D would be the best two to stick with. But I would like to hear from everyone else that is interested in buying a shirt.
Please ignore the darker colors in the shirt it is not a defect in the shirt. I took the pictures of the shirts outside and it was raining and the colors are where the shirts got wet.
(shirt a) (http://www.whiteblaze.net/forum/imagefiles/shirta.jpg), I don't think the logo was placed in proportion of the left chest pocket area, it does not look right.
(shirt b (http://www.whiteblaze.net/forum/imagefiles/shirtb.jpg) & shirt c (http://www.whiteblaze.net/forum/imagefiles/shirtc.jpg)), The logo on the left sleeve came out real well. I think maybe the logo with the hiker facing forward (shirt c) is the better of the two.
(shirt d (http://www.whiteblaze.net/forum/imagefiles/shirtd.jpg)), The 6" logo in the middle of the front of the shirt I think turned

I like "D" the best, but I am not crazy about the color of the shirt. Nice idea!
If you're gong to have two shirts I like the idea of one having a pocket. Voted A and D.
Will they be made of a synthetic (coolmax) or atleast a 50/50 blend?
I voted for shirt "D" in long and short sleeve

i like shirt D! I think that one looks the best! So how much are these shirts running for??
Shirt D. Truly I will stick to my original opinion. That should be on the back as it appears on the front, and the original design should be placed right above where the left pocket goes............

Voted C & D....Color is Fine....Assume they will be coolMax or some other Poly ....
Thanks for your continued work on the shirts and the site in general.

I like D, but will order whatever style is chosen.
I liked A... it is small and still noticeable..not a billboard add..grey is perfect...my only concern is material..for hiking???sur looked like cotton or 50/50 to me..hot and wet come to mind:-? ..could you find out about maybe getting it prited on a stretch wicking base type?

Looks like D is the winner so far. C is my second choice - hiker should definitely be facing front...symbolism of looking to the future instead of where he's already been and all that.
It only let me vote once.
That is because you have to put the check marks in all the blocks you pick the first time. You don't vote then go back and then add one. You do it all the first time.

Here's a variant for consideration: Shirt D in long-sleeve wicking fabric, with either a chest design and a small design on back just underneath the collar; or a large back design with a small design on the front right "pocket" area.
I like Shirt C for a short-sleeve option.

C, love that forward facing hiker on the sleeve.

I seem to be in the minority - but I voted A and B - I like the smaller logo and the forward facing hiker just seems backwards - guess I'm used to the new logo by now.

I like Shirt C for a short-sleeve option.
Small design on the back underneath the collar is very cool.
D looks great, that gets my vote. I just don't really like the logo on the sleeve. I would get a long-sleeve as well.
I like the logo on the sleeve, other hikers can see it while you're hiking and it'd be a way for us to recognize each other. D just seems to big, so I vote A and C with C being my first choice.

I like shirt "C" but also with the "D" logo on the same shirt in coolmax or poly.

C for hiking, D for town - but with a white blaze! Looks like the design lets the tee shirt color show through?

Great job so far attroll. I voted for C & D. D is probably my favorite. Man, I sure hope you're able to get "tall" sizes.
I picked B and D, but there is no question that I like D better. Thanks!

C, love that forward facing hiker on the sleeve.
My thoughts exactly.....C first, all others tie for 2nd choice. The chest strap on my backpack will cover up part of any chest logo. The other suggestions for it to be a wicking type of shirt offered in both long and short sleeve also get my support. And since instant gratification is too slow I want one yesterday. :D

Sorry but it is going to have to wait. I am juggling to many things right now. I was able to find time to squeeze getting the sample shirts done. I am trying to prepare for the WhiteBlaze hiker feed coming up next month. Once that is done and gone by and I get settled back in I will start taking orders for the shirts.
I like A and D, but would proudly wear anything you put out. Thanks for your hard work!

lol! Hopefully not the last
I like C and D. C because just like a tattoo, all should be facing forward not looking looking backwards. We should be looking forward in our lives not dwelling on the past.
D in longsleeve.
