Rabit,
The khaki is as close to the blue sun shirt from Jayne's wardrobe as is possible- might need to wash it a bunch to get an exact match. For the fighting elves, I am going to run some with "Texas burnt orange" should be really close, other choice is called "cedar" which is a bit more red- just in case the dark orange is just a little bit off- the black shirts are just variants that look good and are really popular.......
As far as the pre-ordering goes though- you can request any color that you want,I can e-mail you a color chart if need be, and any garment for that matter- even tote bags- I will get back to everyone about the pricing if they want a sweatshirt or long sleeve T for example, they will be just a few dollars more than the short sleeve T's.

The khaki and burnt orange work for me.

You mention washing a lot - how do the images hold up under that? (Most of the shirts I've been getting, well... don't )

Thanks!

The Blue sun images are printed onto the heaviest weight, best quality (6.1oz vs 5.4oz) shirts that are available. The shirts will hold up just about forever, I have one non-Blue Sun Gildan shirt that is about 9 years old, and gets worn and washed regularly. If you want to preserve the image in pristine condition, then wash and dry it inside out to protect the image from rubbing on the surfaces of the machines. As for the printing, for the Blue Sun I multiple pass print the image on there to push the ink deeply into/through all the fiber layers of the fabric- it takes longer and uses more ink, but the only way that the image will go away is if the shirt finally wears down to bare skin. The full color shirts will receive the same treatment with the white underbase that must go down on a colored shirt before printing the colors over, so the same condition will apply-
All of the shirts come with an unconditional warrantee on quality of workmanship and materials so if you ever do somehow manage to wear one out I will send you a new one- :)

I'm sold!

Once you have HK's final images up there, I'll go back and indicate my interest in those. And once they're for sale, I'm buying a bunch.

And a hat. I just lost all my hair, so it's time to cover my head with Blue Sun...

Many thanks, Alex (and Hell's Kitten, too)!

okay, is it possible to get baby doll Ts that are longer than navel length? I mean, it's winter, and we need those kidneys to be kept warm. A baby doll tshirt to me, is *fitted* not *cropped* which is something else entirely.

Hanes Silver for Her make a good fitted women's T.

Is it possible to post precise measurements of the Tshirts, ie length, width etc for each size? That way those of us who are wondering will REALLY know if it's going to be suitable or not.

Cheers, and sorry for being so picky.

Hey Suze,

I can and will print those designs on anything that you want- I can find some longer stretchy shirts for you- there are many styles- wide banded, spagetti strap, short sleeves, long sleeves, anything- I will just charge the extra for the cost of the shirt over the T-shirt- if you have anything in particular just let me know- or describe it to me exactly, and I will get it for you........ :)
