Is it possible to get t-shirts with the official VRCC logo on them anymore? A couple years back I got one of the black T-shirts that had the VRCC logo on the back, and a smaller version on the chest. I have been unable to find those again. (maybe I'm just looking in the wrong place.) I didn't see them in the F6Rider store.
Thanks

Yeah, it's such a great logo, you would think it would be a stock inventory and a consistent seller. At the same time, I understand the volume for sales of anything club related has dwindled to the point that a minimum pre-order might be required to make a run of shirts so that a small business is not sitting on inventory (money) for months or years. I know I would be down for a couple if the print quality was improved to at least what is was years back. The last shirts I purchased, whatever printing process was used was less than satisfactory. The print only lasted a couple or three washings, the shirt itself was good. Prints should last as long as the shirt. Then again I wear my favorite shirts way past the time most have become grease rags  |

I do the same thing! I have lots of T-shirts that have probably outworn their intended wear out dates...but I still wear em. (As long as they still fit that is...)

... The print only lasted a couple or three washings, the shirt itself was good. Prints should last as long as the shirt. Then again I wear my favorite shirts way past the time most have become grease rags I'll agree the later shirts are not quite as durable as the older ones but two or three washings sounds like you're doing something really wrong. I wear VRCC tee shirts almost every day . I'm still wearing shirts from 2004 and I'm wearing and washing shirts regularly from the past few years. Wash printed shirts inside out. Don't wash or dry them on high heat. Warm is fine. They may fade some over the years but the print will hold up much better than if otherwise treated. We'll talk some about the logo shirts and see what is practical. |

I'll mention your name and contact info in case she needs more advice  I am well learned in areas where I don't want to end up doing chores, such as the kitchen, laundry room or yard. I have also learned that part of a Griswold cast iron skillet that you pour the grease out of, leaves a peculiar scar on ones noggin long after the wound heals  |

We bought some of the Confederate States shirts a few years ago, and they did the exact same thing. My better half always turns them inside out, and washes them in cold water, but unfortunately that didn't make a difference in this case. They were faded very badly after only a few washings. The shirts are of decent quality, but the printing is quite poor quality. On another note though, the shirts we got at InZane shirts have held up quite nicely. |

The shirts that sell at Inzane come from a different supplier than f6 rider. I will look into getting some logo shirts to Inzane if there is enough interest.  |
