The T-shirt also exists for the women??? :tounge_sm I imagine too much my wife in the bed at night with the T-shirt on her and after the T-shirt rolled in ball on the ground :D:tounge_sm;):wink_smil:)
William, you RASCAL!!! That's not what we meant when we said "hardcore" on the back!!! But hey- c'est la vie!
Actually, an XL could make a nice 'OSFA' (one size fits all) nightshirt for your gal, so I like the way you think, mon frere!
One L for me and one XXXXS for my wife (47kg-1m63) ;)

I thought in the early post it was first come first serve.
Just wondering,

Dan mentioned early-on that it's sales at the event only. No pre-orders.
These shirts are by participants, for participants. Don't be buying two to farm out to pards who missed this. Anyone getting a shirt will have earned it.
Kind regards,

Fred beat me to it. As stated at the start of this thread- all shirt sales will be first come, first serve, post-event. Nothing reserved ahead of time.
He was also right about guys snatching up extras for whomever. If it looks like demand might outstrip supply, I will limit sales to one shirt per person, to better the chances that those participants who want one, will get one. But if I have extras lying about after the smoke clears, I'll let everyone know.
Lastly, I'll state flat out that I might sell out of shirts. In fact, I hope I do. I won't be printing quantities for every registered participant, because not everyone will want one. Just a little over 50% of the BGR attendees bought a tee, so I'm using that math as a gauge for ITPW. I have to eat anything left that I don't sell.
Now if I do sell out and there is still a substantial demand, I'll look at printing another round of shirts after the event. But we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
Thanks for all the interest and enthusiasm. This event is definitely worthy of all the buzz!
One other point I wanted to make in regards to unsold extras, besides having to eat the cost. These shirts are special, one of a kind. Not because I'm doing them, but because of what they REPRESENT. They are a tangible reminder of one of the best weeks of your life, after the blisters heal and most of the Kisatchie dirt and cinders have been brushed or washed away.
I stopped wearing my BGR tee a few months ago because it was getting frayed and threadbare, so I retired it to a drawer where I have a few other special tees I've had the presence of mind to preserve. Like my Little Jimmy Dickens tee that I bought when I took my Mom out for her birthday to see him perform at the Independence Eagles club. She's been gone 10 years now, and LJD is still around- go figure. But I digress...
Unlike a generic CW themed tee that could be sold anytime, anywhere down the road, these ITPW tees are event-specific. IMO, if there are unsold extras, they should be destroyed, rather than end up on the wrong backs. Well, I'm exaggerating. But it's like what they do with all the preprinted tees and caps that said "Arizona Cardinals Super Bowl Champions"- they donated them to a charity that gives them to the poor in El Salvador.
