Molon Labe T-shirt

[hank327]

I like #1. But will buy whatever wins.

 

[AF_INT1N0]

I like option 1 the historical one.

I will take one for me, and one for the Wife.


Also the Historical would make one Heck of a Bumper sticker..

 

[Wayne G.]

YES!!! Glad you're doing this! I voted for option 3 but I'll take a couple of them in whichever graphic is decided upon. Please let me know when you get ready to put together an order.

 

[308win]

count me in for one either way - XL

 

[jfh]

option 3:

Lettering on the chest.

But I'd take option one, if it comes down to that.

Ash gray, Navy Blue lettering; high-quality t-shirts--size 2XLT.

I'll take two, and probably another one or two in other colors.

Forgot to mention that! You will be able to have the lettering on the chest or on the back. We will also have different types of shirts for different prices (ie. cheaper, light weight T-shirts. OR a few bucks more for heavy weight, more durable shirts. Might offer long sleeves as well if anyone's interested.) The variables for prices will be documented in the soon-to-be GB thread. (After this poll is done)

Sorry; what does "GB" stand for?

...the soon-to-be GB thread

 

[ColinthePilot]

I'm in for one. as long as the t-shirt is black (so I can wear it under my uniform) I don't care about the other stuff. I like option #3 BTW.

 

[ducktape944]

yea i like option 1, will defiantly buy one...preferably black or tan

I would buy one if you offered #1 with small lettering over the left side of the chest - like a designer logo on a polo shirt.

I am not into shirts with big bold lettering (front or back) because they are not appropriate for business casual wear.

 

[Bazooka Joe71]

I really like the first...And the third isn't too bad either.

Count me in.

 

[jfh]

OK, I will buy both one and three.

But, I'm a bit negative on the blatck T-shirt / white lettering idea. Hot in the summer, a bit of a design cliche.

How about an ivory--e.g., like the "marble" of the image--with the black lettering.

Just increase the script to bold, so to speak, and make it big enough to be read from 7 yards....

#3, Black shirt, white text.

 

[spartan55]

Say, what does Molon Labe mean again?

For those that did not pay attention last time.

And yes I will take one if you offer any in 3XL.

No problem. Shirt color, size and ink colors will be chosen by the buyer, per shirt during the GB

Hehe, funny screen name you got there.

It means "Come take" or "come and take them(weapons)".

Cool, white shirt with red or black lettering sounds about right.

 

[akodo]

I too am a big guy. I see you are offering up to 5X.

Well many of us big guys are big in multiple directions, a 3XTall or a 4XTall is what I normally choose.

however, not all talls are equally long. i'd love it if you could actually measure regular and tall. I believe the standard is to measure at the top of the collar all the way to the bottom, the part that would cover the plumber's crack

 

[akodo]

p.s. I like the idea of ivory with black or dark brown lettering, 'historical' like in your link

 

[Davo]

I like option one.
How about white with blue lettering?-kinda keeping with the Greeks colors of choice...

 

[ArcherandShooter]

#3 is best choice, but I'd like one no matter what you print.

 

[ducktape944]

any idea when this might actually happen?

 

[30 cal slob]

options one or three but i'll take several (XL) regardless.

 

[brighamr]

I don't have the photo skills of some



This is the first prototype, centered on the front of an XL-T. We couldn't use the image verbatim from Wiki (copyright), so we eyeballed it and made our own.

I'm thinking about enlarging the design by about 1.5 to cover more surface area. What do y'all think?

I'm gonna perfect the size/ratio over the next couple days, then hopefully start the GB.

 

[Superlite27]

It means "Come take" or "come and take them(weapons)".

I don't intend to be nit-picky or condescending, just informative:

Different languages contain different ways to express an idea. Often, translations of sayings in one language are difficult to transfer, not because of lack of the concept, but lack of the language to express the concept.

I'm not an expert on translation, I just remember reading somewhere that the closest meaning is "first: come, then (if successful in coming) try to take"

The gist I received is that the first part (coming) must be completed before even attempting the second - the taking. Both of which are under contest.

Whereas the English translation gives equal credence to both "come and take", the Latin provides a chronology where there is a question of completing the first before even tackling the second.

I voted for #3, but #1 is cool too. Count me in for at least 2 Large T's (preferably black). The one's pictured are great!
