    Default Which two WhiteBlaze hiking shirts should we carry? please read post before you vote

    This is not a post to start taking order for the WhiteBlaze shirt. I want your feedback one which two shirts we should stick with. I have created a voting poll that will take multiple votes so please only vote twice and pick the two shirts that you will like to see us have.

    This is not to place order, it is just for feedback. Order will come later.

    I went and picked up the our sample hiking shirts this past Saturday. I have included links that will take you to the pictures.

    I want to stick to two basic styles of hiking shirts. This would make it easier on me when it comes to ordering them and shipping them. Could everyone that is interested look these shirts over and let me know which ones they would be interested in.

    Here are some suggestions of what I think would be the best. I think shirt shirt C & D would be the best two to stick with. But I would like to hear from everyone else that is interested in buying a shirt.

    Please ignore the darker colors in the shirt it is not a defect in the shirt. I took the pictures of the shirts outside and it was raining and the colors are where the shirts got wet.

    (shirt a), I don't think the logo was placed in proportion of the left chest pocket area, it does not look right.

    (shirt b & shirt c), The logo on the left sleeve came out real well. I think maybe the logo with the hiker facing forward (shirt c) is the better of the two.

    (shirt d), The 6" logo in the middle of the front of the shirt I think turned

    Please vote after you finish reading this.

    I like "D" the best, but I am not crazy about the color of the shirt. Nice idea!

    If you're gong to have two shirts I like the idea of one having a pocket. Voted A and D.

    Will they be made of a synthetic (coolmax) or atleast a 50/50 blend?

    Shirt D. Truly I will stick to my original opinion. That should be on the back as it appears on the front, and the original design should be placed right above where the left pocket goes............

    Looks like D is the winner so far. C is my second choice - hiker should definitely be facing front...symbolism of looking to the future instead of where he's already been and all that.

    That is because you have to put the check marks in all the blocks you pick the first time. You don't vote then go back and then add one. You do it all the first time.

    OK. I was confused by the only vote twice bit. They always let me back in the booth a second time on election day...

    Here's a variant for consideration: Shirt D in long-sleeve wicking fabric, with either a chest design and a small design on back just underneath the collar; or a large back design with a small design on the front right "pocket" area.

    I like Shirt C for a short-sleeve option.
