Bill,

According to logosportswear their items are digitally printed. I know for a fact they aren't screen printed. They do look a little thicker, but they do not look like the stuck on vinyl. I'm not sure about other board members, but I am pleased with mine.

You are correct about Magnum's tanks. The one with the worn look was a 44 and the newer looking one was number 14.

Thanks! I've been wanting one of those for a long time.

What's the difference between King Kamehameha & King Kamehameha #2?

The only difference is the positioning of the logo. It is a little lower on one versus the other.

Ok, thanks!

I would really like to see a t-shirt that just had a bit white Team Cross on the front of it. Sort of an official secret "MPI fan club member" t-shirt!

I think I saw one of those shirts on cafepress.com.

Could you imagine if we had a big meet up and everyone was wearing an Island Hoppers t-shirt

I have two, and I'm wearing one of them right now.

Coops, if someone could get the artwork we could set it up on the site. I know someone also mentioned Cafe Press. If there is one on there already maybe we could post a link.

Also, what would everyone feel about an official Magnum Mania t shirt? We could have people submit designs and vote for the one we liked best, or have another method of choosing? What do you guys think?

Hmmm, when you open the ladies choices it lists the tshirt as 'Juniors'....

is this for ladies or girls??.... makes a difference

IKnowWhatYoureThinking · Wed Jul 30, 2008 3:05 pm

These are women's shirts. I don't know why they would list juniors but here is their description of the shirt:

Bella® Juniors Short Sleeve T-Shirt Details
Style(s): BNR-6000
Adult Sizes: Small (0-4), Medium (4-8), Large (8-10), Xlarge (10-12), XXLarge (12-14)
A traditional crew neck in a fashion-fitted silhouette. 5-ounce, 100% ring spun combed cotton; set in cover stitched neck, cover stitched sleeve and 3/4" bottom baby hem, side seams for shape retention.

I hope this helps you out.

I don't know if this will help, but I found some links to Bella Juniors shirts online. This one might be the most informative:

I think they gave a pretty true size estimate for the Island Hopper shirts. When is a size 8 ever a large? It's a medium (or sometimes a small) other places. When I ordered mine, I made the assumption that they ran small and bought a bigger size.

Miss Q · #28 Post by **Miss Q** » Wed Jul 30, 2008 5:01 pm

the sizing seems to run small....

XXL is only a 12-14..... usually 12-14 would be a size med-large, XXL is normally a 22-24.

I hate to be a pest but is there another brand that maybe sizes more accurately???

Miss Q,
I agree, their sizing seems to run small. I think that they were telling the truth for their shirts. If you wear an 8-10, buy a large...at least I hope that's what the size chart meant. Who knows, one of my daughters may get an Island Hoppers shirt..

I know some of the ladies wanted the option to where this style t shirt would be avaliable. I checked and this is the only brand, in this style, that is avaliable for what we are doing. I know we have a several regular t shirts, a fitted men's t shirt, and three fitted women's shirts. We are very close to running out of design options, and I would like to keep those open for other shirts we may want to try and design (Magnum Mania, Coops, Old Dusseldorf, etc). I really am trying to accomodate what everyone wants, but this is about as much as it can be narrowed down. I hope everyone understands, and I want everyone to get the Magnum shirt they want.
