I'm running low on corporate-branded golf shirts for work. I used to have a whole closet full from trade shows and employers, but they're all getting a bit tired, and I need some new ones. Suggestions?

Red Hat golf shirts are $38.95 US, whereas Ubuntu golf shirts are $19.99 US. ThinkGeek.com offers all sorts, starting at $25 US. I'd prefer if companies would just send them to Polar Bear for us, but that doesn't happen very often. :)


Note: I do computer training and IT management, so geeky shirts is just a fun wardrobe choice (that [livejournal.com profile] leapfish hates). I also wear all sorts of non-branded clothing.

I have a golf shirt with an APEC Chile 2004 logo. If interested let me know.

Oh, that's fun! I bet it would cost a bundle to send it here though. :)

Let me ask at the post office. However it's not heavy, so I bet it won't cost much :) It's dark blue with light olive green letters.

Sounds pretty! Seriously though, the post wasn't for my friends to start subsidizing their respective national post offices just to clothe me... :)

Post is public... so as a Public Servant, all the money invested in your package will be reimbursed in my salary.

So, I'll take it as an investment.

i love that stuff.

and you know, if you found a high-res version of any logo you wanted (or made a good enough approximation), you could go to that site i gave you (cafepress.com), submit the logo, and just order a t-shirt.

they offer that option in addition to/instead of opening up an entire "store".

Hey cool, I didn't know they did golf shirts too, I'll have to consider that!

clocks, shirts, buttons, mugs, underwear, messenger bags, etc...

Sadly, no corporate logos. Oh well.

Cafe Press is not exactly the cheapest way to buy clothing... and by "not exactly", I mean "not at all". You get exactly what you want, at a price. I bought matching FSM* t-shirts for Zach and I and the total, after shipping, duty, etc. was close to $60.

They're nice t-shirts, but not $60 nice.



* The "In the beginning..." one, not the "I was touched by his noodly appendage" one. Too much explanation required with that one.

A golf shirt for $16.99 US plus shipping ain't terrible. Sadly, they won't allow corporate logos, for fear of infringement. I probably wouldn't get a Polar Bear logo past them.

Be careful how you ship it. J ordered some stuff from them and it arrived without a problem (although they shipped UPS and it took nearly a month to arrive). My stuff came with duty due on it to the tune of about $15 dollars.
