          If I had a ML polo, I'd wear it all over. I wear my Spiceworks polo every week and it sparks tons of conversation.

          Same here, my SpiceCorps shirts get a lot of mileage.

            I would definitely buy one. I got my shirts made from a girl my wife knows. They were nice golf polos with the embroidered logo. $25 each.

              Can I have permission to just print my own personal shirt with the ML logo? I can have it printed and shipped for like $20 depending on what material is chosen... @scottalanmiller @Minion-Queen

                  Many of us would probably do that, actually. I've got Expert Ts here for that sort of thing.

                      It's not the cheapest, but moderately priced at about $28 for some quality dri-fit material. It got more expensive with name brand shirt manufacturers such as Champion/Port Authority/etc.

                      I found cotton as low as about $15-18. I could probably find cheaper online if I really looked, I just picked the first couple Google searches.

                        @DustinB3403 but at $28, there is really no margin for profit. ML would have to pre-order for printing, order in bulk of 10 or more, and use cheaper material to justify having the swag.

                        Teespring does that very thing, but with t-shirts (margins on polos are pretty thin compared to 100% markup for an affordable $20 t-shirt).

                          I have no issue with that at all. If you want me to do the coordinating (read @jenuinecase will be doing it). We can make that happen. But they will be preorders.

                            @Minion-Queen @BBigford @DustinB3403 Expert Ts Design Their quote for 50 shirts is at $10.04 each (still, that's $1004 total), and a single one for $17.49. I wouldn't trust that site for anything, if anyone else is interested in picking one up I'll go to the actual store. Worst site I've seen in years security wise.

                              Whoa, that is super affordable at $10.04 for 50 shirts considering it is 70% less than buying only 1. That's some good profit margin for ML.

                              @Minion-Queen, you could do the pre-order route... let people know that it could take an indefinite amount of time until the limit of X-needed was reached, then orders would be processed. Unless that is getting to be too much of a hassle for ML attire. If you're only generating interest of dozens at a time, like a quarterly surge of 30 people, you could determine an amount that would be needed to make the whole thing worth it (like 50, 75, etc). You wouldn't really have to even figure in shipping, you could just pass that cost to the purchaser. The only thing I would be concerned about would be the margin of payment processing. If you had a business plan, you would get the standard 3% off the front end removed in no time, but that 3% on the back end to the processing company...

                                        I need a couple more solid clients and I can hire one full time.

                                        I have a quality part timer.
