IKWYT,
The sizing for womens clothing is impossible. :roll: :roll: The number (or letter) on the size tag never means the same thing!! I can walk into Gap and buy a size 2 or a size 12. It's all random!

We appreciate eveything you have done. :D

Thanks MPS! I just want to try and make sure everyone is as pleased as possible with what we have set up on the site. I know how complicated women's clothing can get because of my wife. I hope people get what they want and enjoy wearing the shirts once they arrive. I know I love my KKC tank tops. I bought three of them and wear them to the pool or to run on a regular basis.

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?
I'm for both. I'd also like to see some comical "WWMD?" type shirt. THAT would be awesome!

I'd definitely like to have a go a doing a few MM designs. I have a few ideas already. The trickiest one so far would have been the Island Hoppers logo but that was a bit intricate, but as you've seen it turned out nice.

I'm also still working on a Coops design(beer label) but the font is a real pain in the ass. I gave up on Old Dusseldorf.

The KKC softball team logo(seen in Squeeze Play) I've pretty much done but that part of the logo at the bottom, which is hard to make out, needs to be redone. I also want to recreate Higgins' cricket team logo.

Sounds good Icepick. I know the website where hwe have the KKC and IH shirts has a blue and white shirt like the Paddlers softball shirt. I'm thinking once we see what the popular colors of the IH t shirts are we can eliminate a few of the colors to give us more room from some other designs.

Sounds good, I'll keep plugging away at designs. Hopefully one day we'll have every shirt recreated! :D

Just to let you know, in addition to the 'Magnum Gear' section, I've also added your webpage to the right column of all pages that have a right column. It's under 'Magnum on the Web', named 'Magnum Shirts'.

Thanks James. Hopefully with Icepick's help we can get some different shirts from the show for people to chose from.

My Island Hoppers shirt just arrived! It's a well made shirt and the logo is fabulous. :D A heads up here, the womens large does fit like a medium. Just thought I should mention that, in case anyone else is thinking of buying the ladies version.

Just wondering does anyone actually offer a t-shirt of the island Hoppers that has the design on the front as well as back like the one on the show? I've always wanted one with a front and back logo a maroon with white logo and it actually scaled in the right size versus a lot of the ones I see that are way too big if anybody knows who makes one please post a link here
It made me do it Higgins!!!

I had a screen made with a local screenprinter that produces just what you describe.

I have more than a few that I had made for myself, but they've all been worn and washed so many times, (years worth!), that the ink is not in "great" shape on some of them, others that I haven't worn as much still look pretty much new. What size do you wear, and what colors do you like? I'd be happy to share if you don't mind second hand stuff, and I have the size and color you need.

Other option is, the printer keeps the screen in house and I can get shirts done anytime I want, drawback is, there is a 12 shirt minimum. They generally run between $8-$12 each depending on size and color.

I can post pics (maybe) if you'd like to see what I have. :geek:

Just re-read your post, and I'll have to check, but I know I have maroon shirts, but the print is gold rather than white. All the shirts I have are XL.

Well definitely check on the maroon I'd like to see what you have and the size I wear is an XL LOL I would rather really have the maroon with white but would definitely be interested in at least looking at the Gold cuz I know TC wore that one a lot as well I can't really think of the second shirt he wore most maybe the red? It's been a while for some reason the moon always just stood up to me I wish there was more people on here that was on board for a maroon and white LOL definitely don't need 12 shirts LOL
It made me do it Higgins!!!
