Spring into Plaid Heaven

Spring is certainly taking its sweet time arriving, but try to visualize with me the moment when you are on your back deck, on the boat, or at an outdoor concert and you notice that the warm summer sun has gone down and their is a slight chill in the air. You don’t want a bulky jacket or sweatshirt..it brings back too many memories of this past winter. What do you reach for?

Plaids and Chambray from Weatherproof.

The details on these shirts are great and their softness surpasses none (perfect for those evenings when you may be a little red from too much sun). Ladies don’t fret, they do have a couple of the styles made just for you.

The catalog has  been added to our E-Catalogs. Check out page 64 and 65.

CamoHex: A Updated Camo Look

Sport Tek is introducing a new kind of pattern for their performance tees, sweatshirts and hats. It is a new twist on an old classic. The CamoHex is a  sublimated digital camo that uses small hexagons in a tonal pattern.  We gotta admit it is pretty cool.

The tee’s are 3.8 oz of 100% Polyester, go from XS-4XL and come in youth sizes. But the real question is how well do the work when you print something on them?

I used Sisser Cad-Cut Fashion film and did a small front logo and large back image on the ladies tee. (And yes I did that on purpose as I intend to wear it later….) The pattern shows through the orange film a bit but personally I liked the effect. It makes it look like it is more apart of the shirt and not sitting on top of it. The film went on very easy and looks quite good after a washing.

These shirts are perfect for your team, gym, or corporate team building, come in some cool colors, and have other matching items so you can make a complete outfit if you so desire.

Let us know what you think! Here is the CamoHex link  on our website where you can find them and the color options.

After 2 feet of snow we are thinking Spring and Spring Sports. Specifically how to make it easier on our customers to find everything for their  team without having to shop for items in 40 different catalogs. Color is their main concern because If they have to shop in 40 different catalogs, they tell us  the chances of color consistency becomes iffy. Enter Team 365!

Team 365 has made it easy to find all your teams gear in one easy spot.

They have teamed up with Champion, Alo Sports, Dyenomite, Headsweats, and Flexfit to insure you have color consistency for your team color across all aspects of  apparel right down to duffel  bags.

Marsala….take it or leave it?

Marsala is the Pantone Color of 2015. We are not terribly impressed by this years choice but here is the explanation that Pantone gives for it.

The Versatility of Marsala

  • Equally appealing to men and women, Marsala is a stirring and flavorful shade for apparel and accessories, one that encourages color creativity and experimentation
  • Flattering against many skin tones, sultry and subtle Marsala is a great go-to color for beauty, providing enormous highlight for the cheek, and a captivating pop of color for nails, shadows lips and hair.
  • Dramatic and at the same time grounding, the rich and full-bodied red-brown Marsala brings color warmth into home interiors
  • An earthy shade with a bit of sophistication, texture is the story in print and packaging. A matte finish highlights Marsala’s organic nature while adding a sheen conveys a completely different message of glamour and luxury.

If Marsala is your color you are going to have a great year. If not, well 2016 is not THAT far away. Either way whatever color gear or promo items you go with we will make sure your logo looks good on it.
