HST Swag

Post by ERIC »

I'm looking for some input on HST swag. As most of you know, we've had free stickers and some shirts, etc. available for purchase from CafePress for a long while now. If there is interest here, I'm considering adding to what we now offer. Small patches has been suggested in the past and I like the idea. Also, decals that are more suited for vehicles (i.e. modern custom cut). Any thoughts on those? Other suggestions?

I'm also looking for A) someone interested in assisting with graphical design work (please PM me - no big secret that I suck at graphic design work and could use some help), and B) suggestions for print/production vendors (respond here to this thread)? Any merchandise developed would be sold at (my) cost.

OK, I will interpret the non-response as a lack of interest.

There is interest. I'm just not that creative.

There are companies out there that do what i think your after if you get a design down (4 day workshop in John's garage after his brew is ready?)

http://www.americanpatch.com/ for the pack

and: https://www.carstickers.com/Create_A_Custom_Decal.php for the car.

Have to remember, this is the slow season as well.

actually I spent an hour in paintbrush and made something kind of cool I guess, just probably not worthy of representing the site. I dont have graphic design skills either. There is interest, just no one is saying anything :)

I'm like the others, just not sure what my input would be.

Well, sitting here in semi quarantine, had a little search time on my hands:

I have a "Got Mountains?" for the rear as well:

Nice, those look brand new.

The original HST sticker still adorns the back window of my Xterra, a little worn from the many years since it was put on. Quite amazing how it has lasted. The HST patch I have sewn on one of my favorite jackets occasionally causes people to ask where they can buy HST outerwear. :)
