I did an Olympic distance Triathlon this weekend and posted some pictures because I wore my (wife designed and had made for me - she is a graphics designer) BlackBerry Legion t-shirt.
I wore it to show my support for BlackBerry and I also wore it at the gym and while training on my bike. Hey, it was free marketing for BB.
Anyway, the single design and print was about a bit expensive but several people said they would be interested on getting one and I asked my wife if I ordered 10 t-shirts how much would each cost. She told me 24 bucks.
Anyway, I'm just asking to see if anyone out there is interested. If I get at least 10 people that say they want one I will have them made and shipped to you (you pay for shipping).
I found the quality was good and I've washed my BB t-shirt about 20 times and it still looks pretty good so it does make a great workout t-shirt. I also made a long sleeve one for me (I live in Portland and it rains often) but that's because I'm kinda crazy.
So let me know if you are interested.
Also, if you like the Playbook you could check out a little contest I started. One of the prizes is a BB Legion t-shirt and a nice bottle of wine. I'm tracking my numbers but I'm not eligible so you can enter. Just need to be a BB and CB fan with a post history that reflects it. http://forums.crackberry.com/blackbe...4/index14.html
If you are not a BB fan and are not interested, please don't post anything. I did not attack any other platform. Thanks in advance.
Sorry I'm not interested in the shirt. I really like the BlackBerry Legion though. Good for you, going out & making your own BB fan shirt. That shows true dedication to the platform. I vote you should be the CrackBerry Fan of the month
Hey guys,
So far we have six t-shirts so if we get four more I'll place an order for ten. If so, I'll post here and send you private messages as well.
You guys will probably enjoy the t-shirts if we get them. I know that when I was training at the gym or out cycling I enjoyed wearing them. No need for comments or anything, the t-shirt said it all without attacking anyone else. Just a proud member of BlackBerry.
Also, when I was running the TRI, I found myself pushing a little harder since I was wearing my BlackBerry colors. Besides, Black is my favorite color for t-shirts and it has a little attitude to it so I've enjoyed wearing it for workouts.
I would prefer having these tees printed at the same place for this time. If popularity demands it, we could always ask @CrackBerry Kevin for these to be placed in the shopping center.
Dugganm,
I'm pretty sure we could work something out to ship you something. Especially if you are willing to wait. I actually have a friend that goes to England from time to time.
Cesare21,
Well, if there is some demand for it that would be nice because the unit cost would come down. I don't know but guess Kevin would support something like that. Lets see what happens.
Hey Cesare21,
Believe it or not I have a friend that goes to India every year. Not really useful info right now but next time he goes I can ask him to carry a couple of t-shirts if you are interested. Shipping within India would be much cheaper and he is a pretty cool guy so I'm sure he would carry it for me. Just saying.
If people want the t-shirts we will keep producing them. I just don't want to get stuck with a bunch of inventory if there is no demand.
Understandable. I was just thinking it might not be a bad idea to have them on hand for the holiday season. I could see it making a good gift for BlackBerry fans.
sorry about the late reply. The count is eight. I am afraid I'll just have to be happy with my current t-shirts and go with that.
I don't think there is enough interest on these t-shirts at the moment.
No problem. I'll still wear mine until the BB10 phones come out with a physical keyboard and beyond.
