New Mk Tanks (not a session report, but check it out)
When:
Fri, 08/10/2012 - Sat, 08/11/2012
Hi everyone,
As many of you have seen, I've made a round of Mk tank tops specifically for kiting. It's been a long process with the shirt company, and now I think I'm at a point where I'm happy with the design and materials enough to do some larger orders for everyone who's interested.
Please feel free to post feedback, but I'm looking for the specific info below from people who are interested ordering shirts.
-What are your top three (in order) color patterns? Please use 1-19.
-(Other color suggestions?)
-Would you prefer the backs to be bright, or black?
-Would you like reversible/double-sided shirts or one-sided?
-How many do you want commit to?
Depending on the feedback, I'll let everyone know what the final plan is ASAP (hopefully in the next 2 week).
I'm waiting for pricing on one-sided shirts. Double-sided shirts will be about $70 and will have reenforced harness holes included. I don't think I'll be doing harness holes on one-sided shirts because they will be much lighter. My current plan is to do the front side in argyle that's brighter, and have the back panel be bright solid matching colors so that people are easily seen on the water for safety. Order large (or multiple shirts) if you want them to go over your drysuits.
Feel free to email me, pm me, or post on here your answers (or questions). If I get enough interest in a specific color/colors (at least 6) I will order them.
I'm excited to offer these!
Below are some possible color combinations. I'm aware that I'm giving way too many (19!) options but I'm curious what people gravitate towards.

I'd like to get one. I like 3 and 6 (Celtics Green). I also like 15, but white instead of grey (so red, black and white) would be baller. I think bright backs would be pretty cool for increased visibility.
The harness hook is not necessary IMO, since you can wear it under the harness as you would a rashguard. It's good having access to the harness (line knife, handle in the back, etc.)
Awesome designs, Jeremy!

Are you taking orders so you know how many to get? If the intended use is to wear over out wetsuits would you recommend ordering one size larger than normal? are you doing short sleeves also? Can I send you a check? and 9 would be good for visibility on the water.

I'm asking so i can see the interest in colors, and how many to get. I'm not ordering extras for a while... so whoever has interest, I will contact them and work out details as i do this order. designs 3, 4, and 6 look like they will happen at this point.
I would definitely order larger for the fall... I got a large and it fits good now... but I'll get an XL for my drysuit.
I could do shirts with sleeves, but first things first.
Checks, cash, or paypal are fine.
#9 would have an orange back... any designs with orange, red or yellow backs should be good for visibility.

it'd be solid backs, either black or a bright color. without the "core" and I'll add a cool subtle "Mk" graphic in the opposite shoulder of the 3 elements design.
