Your right and theres a 99% chance everything will be fine indeed. But lets consider that 1% worse case scenario for a minute.

It doesn't matter how many are printed, how many are sold, for how much and to whom, its unauthourized use of a TM. Say a few members are seen and unknowingly questioned by some Henckels employees I.E management and learn that they are being sold on SRP. Technically SRP is endorsing this sale especially when mods are signing up too. Companies can be pricks and ignorance is not a defense.

I would hate to see Vgod or SRP get into any trouble from this. Anyway I have done my bit by expressing my concerns and I now have a clear conscience.


(Secretly I am tempted to get a W&B)

EDIT: I am not trying to discourage Vgod, just expressing some concerns.

I thought you were a Kiwi!? I agree with your thinking, but that is typical of the Japanese thinking( at least my mother! )but not us round eyes!

Only by birth right and pigmentation of my skin. I am told on frequent occasion that I am very Japanese and sometimes more than actual Japanese people.

Round eyes I love that term.
I gotta meet your mum one day, she sounds like a grand lady.

Couple of quick questions. Are they going to be silkscreened? and what brand of shirt is gonna be used for the shirt? (my size varys by brand)

BTW, THANKS Vgod for picking this up and putting it together!

Also, will the shirts be available in long sleeve as well?

Excellent idea, but can you adjust the spelling of Henckels before productin? I'll vote for/choose either steel grey or basic black. Are pocket Tees an option? Pockets are good - they're somewhere to put the glasses for those of us needing artificial enhancements - or the ball point pen so we can write notes to ourselves for clues on what was supposed to happen next.

Too many options?

they should be either gildan or hanes heavyweight. they will be silkscreened. i cannot do longsleeve, polo, tank tops, caps, pockets, tails, ties, tattoos or tophats. just short sleeve shirts. i am trying to keep this simple. like someone else said, there have been a few threads on this prior. this one is happening.



for everyone else, thanks for your input on the shirts. i do have the boker images. i personallly like the 1869-1900, and the 1924-1935 images. majority vote wins.

GUYS - I work for a Japanese company and I come to SRP during the day to ESCAPE their madness! Not be reminded of it. Please cease and desist from this conversation - I'm trying to put in my order for a bootleg t-shirt!
