Here is one of the logos I will put on the front. Completely fictitious one.

Der, I reckon just the crown bit would look good, but with white balls on the end of each cone lol. It wouldn't be illegal as shirt is still not predominantly white, but it could have the opponent seeing 5 balls LOL :lol: :lol:

Got mine today. Looks great and feels very comfortable. Even though I got a XXL I think it is still a little too small for my liking. It will still fit fine but I generally like shirts to be a bit loose when playing TT.

You are one of the first, certainly in your area, to wear one. You are a pioneer.

Got mine today, wore it tonight for a hit with GP. I agree Bv that they could be a little roomier, but fit ok. Its mainly around my shoulders that its snug.

Now I'm beginnig to get scared about the size of these shirts. I'm waiting for a XL, and I'm 1.85 long and weights about 80kg. Usually wear L, but since I heard these were rather small in sizes, I thought I would go with the XL. Now the question is, will this fit me???


Haggisv posted these measurements in the first post:

Quote:
It comes in 3 sizes, approx measurements are as follows:

Size L: Height=73cm, Width=52cm
Size XL: Height=75cm, Width=54cm
Size XXL: Height=77cm, Width=56cm

Note:
Width is measured from side to side on the chest
Height is measured from the top of the (folded over) collar to the bottom of the shirt


Measure your current shirt according to the methods above and compare to Haggisv measurements. That will give you which size to choose :)

Oh dear me Speedy. You really do embody the image of us skåningar being slow and lazy ;)

Sorry people, this is a local joke for Speedplay, perfectly illustrating my point above.
No English version as I am afraid the true meaning will be lost in translation and culture... :(

    Faur å seån sidder tysta å stilla framfårr brausan.
    Ettårr itt taug sir seånen: "Höer faur vhor de spragar i brausan?"
    Faur svaurar: "Hör sel, din lade drul..."
    :lol:

Brab could a translation lead to something like one we have "you reap what you sow"? (Seems a lot less words though!) :lol:

Nah, it just illustrates "slow and lazy" in a very nice, typically Southern Swedish way.

OK, here goes for you, Reb :). A somewhat useless translation as the finer points of the joke are truly are lost in translation and some cultural fog, I am afraid.

Imagine this being written not in the Queens English, but in a regional dialect, like Glaswegian or something similarly strong.

    Father and son are sitting quiet and still in front of the fireplace.
    After a while the son says: "Father, listen to the fire crackling."
    Father replies: "Listen yourself, you lazy good-for-nothing."

Now, I really don't expect you to find this funny nor do I expect you to understand it, but there you go, Reb :D

OK, enough sightseeing, back on topic again ;)

Speedplay, throw some more wood on that fire. It's getting chilly.

In my opinion, the shirt looks too basic. Needs design but otherwise okay.

Actually Brab, there wasn't much lost in translation I don't think. I can see the funny side. Thanks. And yes we return the topic to shirts. Makai, I'd also like to know what you think would make it less boring? I think they look pretty smart, but if there was something to make them look even better, I'd be all for it. :wink:

A crazy idea here, crazy parially because i'm not sure I will be able to tag along for it, but I still think it would be cool if we all tried to get a picture of our self in the OOAK shirt and posted it here, perhaps someone with photoshop skill could make it look like a group picture? Could be cool to have on the shop site :D


That's a VERY good idea actually!!! Someone also already suggested to run a little competition, to see who can take the funniest picture of you wearing the shirt, which I though was a great idea too!

Not to shoot your idea down Speed... but taking individual photo and turning it into group photo is a nightmare i would think... Different distance of object being photographed, lighting, poses, etc. etc...

Turning them into a collage is another thing, put many into one...

Individual photos of funny, interesting, unique, crazy, or whatever is way easier to do...

I'll see if I can contribute some during the meets with the guys down under...
