It's been awhile since we've made any new shirt designs (besides InZane). Anyone have any new suggestions?

I know nothing about t shirt art design but a caricature design ala Ed Roth style would seem to be a popular model given our membership age group.

Nothing specific coming to mind yet, but something celebrating our girl's age and the fact they're still out there, still bad ass and still kicking butt......

Offer a version with a pocket. Much more likely to sell me one or two if there was a pocket version available. I know some don’t want that opt but that’s the only kind I like.
Maybe a collared version with a VRCC insignia on the pocket? Just suggestions....

There was a Yosemite Sam pic going around FB, he had his guns drawn (6 barrels) and his hat said Valkyrie. Not sure what ever happened to it but would be a cool design.

My favorite shirt was the one that was done up for DOTS in 2006.
It had one of every Valk with mountains in the background.
A variation of that one, maybe even one including the 1800's might be nice.

oZ co-opted that. Actually I would be worried about copyright infringement.

Quite some time ago I attended and supplied a number of short sleeve and long sleeve blue jean shirts, and a few t shirts embroidered with this logo I designed to our local VRCC summer get together. Might be nice to have something like this made again. .jpeg)

Silkscreen pictures are great. I like Valks, engines, and dragons and Viking Valkyrie babes (cleavage is good, but exposed hooters not so much).  There's a tremendous amount of great Valkyrie/Dragon artwork on line, but copyright on much of it could be a problem. I know nothing about that area of law (other than the potential trouble part). But 90% of the time, whatever words are added ruin the shirt for me (not including Valkyrie/Honda/Flat6/1520/etc).... but the little sayings. I'm proud of my bikes, but I won't wear shirts with braggadocio or smack on them. But opinions do vary.

Last longer and doesn't fade nearly as fast. I know it costs a bit more but, the quality is worth it (to me). Rams

I agree, no cliche "biker" slogans or images, or anything running down other bikes. Just a nice simple design with something referring to "Classic" would be nice to wear. I do like the InZane shirts I've purchased in the past as its nice to have the reminders and I still wear them. Kind of a funny story...the Mrs purchased a Go Tell Your Momma What The Big Boys Ride hat at Billings InZane and proudly wore it that week. When we continued riding through a few more States and eventually back home a couple weeks after the event, she noticed a lot of folks staring at her and her hat wherever we would stop."Go Tell Your Momma What The Big Boys Ride" on the front of a lady's hat means one thing when you're in a group of Valkers....the meaning of it is a little less clear otherwise

Honda Valkyrie Embroider that on a shirt pocket and I'm in for a few of them. Of course, that depends on how many I can afford.  Rams

The denim shirts are more expensive. We were actually doing them previously with choice of model and color. I know our printer has embroidery patterns for Tourer, Interstate, and even SuperValk (I don't remember if we have Standard). If there is enough interest we can certainly do them again. I have one here, I'll see if I can get a pic and post it.

I don’t suppose you have anything like that in what I think is called a golf shirt? I know, some folks ask for the world. But if I don’t tell ya, you’ll never know. Unless you’re like my wife and know what I’m thinking before I do.  Rams

Technically, we can put it on any shirt (not sure if t-shirt material would embroider well). It's just a matter of amount of interest. We have to meet minimum order numbers to get them done. I texted our embroidery person, she will get prices and minimums on Monday.
