Ready, Set, Consume
For a long period in which the MGoStore laid fallow because the previous company stopped existing in all ways except accepting orders. This did not go well for people who ordered or my inbox. So I searched about for another company that would not do this to the readership again. I have found one: Underground Printing, an Ann Arbor company you're probably familiar with if you've ever gotten a student t-shirt at Yost with your season tickets. They will not disappear; they will make sweet shirts.
So. There is a store:
As always, you are directed to consume for the good of the nation.
Also! I'm pleased to announce that MGoBlog reader and extremely talented person Six Zero is going to be running an MGoShirt contest before the season starts. He's created around a dozen designs that will battle each other for supremacy; the best-loved shirt (and maybe a couple more if more than one that must be had) will go in the store. That starts Monday. Fight for his love.

An Emperor of Space shirt
An Emperor of Space shirt
is definitely in order for the coming season.
Some other ideas:
-QBForce
-Family Values (perhaps with some version of the famous Alan Branch / Anthony Morelli picture included)
-Unverified Voracity - some sort of MGoBlog plug, i.e. "I don't believe it until I see it on MGoBlog"
-Minor "Rage"
August 7th, 2009 at 2:16 PM |
Wow
Wow
If someone could work down that AB/Morelli image into a simple one color image that could come across on a t-shirt, it would be simply amazing. I wish I had that kind of graphic design skill..

Any chance the "Charlie Weis should probably eat less" shirt comes back?
I also like the idea of something using the phrase "Jabba the Coach".
I also also like the idea of the phrase "The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Forcier." incorporating a picture of a jedi or Darth Vader or something...
If we aren't supposed to eat animals, why are they made out of meat?

What Brand of T-Shirt?
Can anyone tell me the T-Shirt brand for this store? American Apparel, I hope??
August 7th, 2009 at 2:06 PM |
Brand of Shirt
Brand of Shirt
Currently the shirt brand is your standard Gildan. Couple of reasons
1) The Daisy color made by Gildan is the best representation of UofM Maize out there. American Apparel has a "Gold" color which is too Dark.
2) American Apparel shirts are nice, but are a tighter fitting shirt which doesnt necessarily work for everyone.
That being said, we will probably be introducing "fitted" versions of shirts for those of you that are interested in American Apparel or higher end shirts.

Thanks for the response. I would definitely look forward to 'fitted' American Apparel shirts. For tall thin frames those AA shirts fit perfectly. Gildan or Hanes T-Shirts make me feel like I'm wearing a bed gown.

These Maize shirts are pretty similar to how they look. We aren't big on the "Gold" version that many shirts come in. This is why we use the Gildan brand, its the brand used for a majority of UofM athletic printing.

Anyone have a word on how small these shirts run? The Richrobots' ones were very tight on me. I need to know before i splurge on these epic shirts.
I hope Brian profits from these because they are all the dogs bollocks. Fav: East Lansing, it works on so many levels.

In the FAQ it sounds like you can exchange items. I'm guessing if you get something too big/small you can send it back and get the next size up/down. But you do have to pay the S&H.

How the shirts run
How the shirts run
They run pretty true to size. They are Gildan brand, so if you go to your closet and check out the t-shirts that are from Gildan, Hanes, Fruit of the Loom, Anvil - this is the type of fit you will get.
If you like the fitted shirt, we will be introducing those in the future as well...

I'm a little disappointed that Barwis Gym is available in sizes other than small... and that it doesn't have at least one wolf. Don't worry, I still bought one (but may add wolves later).

I've worked with them a number of times. Although I dealt with the East Lansing store, the service and quality was always excellent. In fact, I think the shirts are distributed from Ann Arbor anyway.
I look forward to picking up some shirts.

Don't think so
I would imagine that first of all that they'd understand the intent of the shirt. And secondly, I'm sure they'd be glad to have left. Ohio is an awful state and if they had any "home state" loyalty, they would have gone to the-university-that-must-not-be-named.
