    ChrisL, thank you very, very much for the linen "Certifyd" strop. It arrived just a few minutes ago on the day you specified and is THE best packaging I have ever seen for strops. I am now 'retiring' the linen side to two old Russian shell strops I have and will be using Mr Certifyd exclusively.

    That doesn't look bad at all - do you have higher resolution so that it doesn't pixelize in shirt size. I suppose It could be fine as it is as a small logo on the chest.

    I have it on a number of strops too and can take high-resolution images, but I'm not very good at the post-processing to clean up the background texture.

    It was a higher resolution but it got downsized when uploaded.

    If you don't mind send it to me at xxxxx and I'll put it on a t-shirt in the srp store to see how it looks.

    If and when available I'm in for a few. Shavers and non shavers on my list of 'Certifyd'.

    Thanks to GhostEdge for the high resolution image we now have it in the SRP store.
    I don't see it yet listed among the other products, but the direct link seems to be working

    Certifyd T-Shirt Tee Shirt from Zazzle.com

    I selected to make it available on any type of their t-shirts, but I didn't see a pocketed one (may be I missed it).
    You can pick the specific shirt in the style selector under the colors on the right. The default option is the one I'm getting - organic cotton and natural color since that's close to the strops.

    I think I also want to create one with gold colored letters on dark brown background to match the leather strops with that label, but have to figure out the details so that the image background doesn't show up on the shirt.

    At the moment you get a 10% discount with coupon code ORDERSHIPTEN, or if you sign up for their newsletter they'll email you a code for 15% discount.
