Sweat wicking under shirts RE WORST UMPIRE EVER THREAD

[ArchAngel72]

So due to this thread.

I put together a couple thoughts posted and came up with these "logos"

Is there any interest in them at all?

 

Ordering 15 with a 10/xl and 5/2XL

They are 24$ each at the moment.

Its the printing that cost so dang much.

 

Admin if this post is against the rules I fully admit I did not look up the rules about it and will accept any and all slaps.  IF not Im just looking to see if anyone wants in on this buy and to see how many I SHOULD order.

Do these come in Navy blue?


You probably could add

in my 30 years of coaching, I have never got thrown out for calling a ump "MF'er!

Could we put a face mask on the front and/or back?

I have interest in a large or so, but presumably we'd need to get to enough folks interested in that size, assuming you'd be willing to do a handful in that size too.

No, a target 🎯 on the back. 

OOoo!! A doormat!

Sh!t, just print the thing in Braille, and get a discount from the ADA.

Well since Christmas a few years back I've been forced to wear a hoodie with Umpires Rock on it since it was a gift from my Grandsons.

Usually the front … doesn’t do much good when you wear it on the back.  😜

I  know you asked for these in another thread, but … 

“That call covered all three bulls!  Horri-bull, Terri-bull, and bull $#!+”

I'm not loving including the heckles on the back.  Not that the particular ones you've chosen are bad, I think I'd just love the mask logo and TWWU on the front.

Maybe the last line attributed to "You" on the back as a quote.

I'd order one either way, but my $0.03.  (two cents plus inflation.)

I think it's too busy also, if I had more time I'd design one.  Maybe I'll try in a bit.

Small logo (mask is good) and Bad Blue or something to the effect under it on the left breast.

Back can have a quote you prefer, have several options available hopefully.  We could always put to a vote on which 2 or 3 you want to start with and to gauge interest. 

I'd like to see UA get involved with this, their larger ability to store investor could lead to better design and lower cost - but we'd lose some ingenuity I suppose.

OK 

 

so kicking around making it one quote instead

 

"As voted by parents and coaches both I am "The Worlds Worst Umpire""

 

??

If you go with the list of real diatribes hurled at umpires, I'd suggest the top line over the list say:

When you are as wrong as you think the umpire is:

 

(Love that Bad Blue logo @wolfe_man!

Isn't the whole point to have "The Worlds Worst Umpire" on the shirt somewhere? The shirt should be a play on that phrase. It's design should make fun of the idiocy of the fans.

I like the "Bad Blue" logo on the front.

The back should say something like: "I am the worlds worst umpire."

I wouldn't be interested in any of the umpire cliches on the back. Those are tired old tropes that I can live without.

[ArchAngel72]

Personally these are "wicking" shirts so a large block of logo which DOES look awesome will make you regret buying it when using it as the shirt will hold all water/sweat right there and not allow it to dry out.

Ask me how I know when our Place of work put a massive 12x11 block of logo on our backs.

 

Just the "quote" on the back to me is what it should be and a small block of quotes will still allow wicking to happen vs a large chunk of paint

I didn't mean to hi-jack this thread, so I've removed my design ideas. I'm obviously thinking differently than the others.

I am not interested in the above shirt design though.  It's too busy for me personally.

Thanks for trying to come up with something from our post idea!

How about

Voted the worlds worst umpire and all I got was this shirt.

Just having fun. No hard feelings to whatever someone comes up with...

Now I kinda want to be called TWWUE so I can qualify for a shirt!  The coach's confused look as I beam with excitement at his proclamation will be priceless.

Here's my thinking on this. Haven't been an umpire very long but from the beginning have always been told to portray a good demeanor and professional look.
I wear moisture cooling shirts under my CP and find them very functional and would use this shirt for that. But there are times I'm observed before or after the game in the shirr and wouldn't want to be portrayed as a joke or joking about the position.
The farthest I would go personally would be the "It's nothing until I call it" design. And I'm not sure I would display that pre or post game.
I'm not the best and still have a ton to learn but I can say regardless of the game, I'm giving my all and being professional at all times.
Just me fwiw, but I would get a shirt as decent looking umpire attire is definitely lacking.

No worries Sir and not at all a hijack  this thread was for ideas and by all means if you want to be apart of the idea maybe we can run 2 shirts? 2 designs ?

I was still trying to keep the notion and idea alive and also trying to gauge interest. There does seem to be some. But I honestly do not see "enough" 

by all means I respect your design and liked it just was putting in my experience on the Large back logo and what it might do is all.

I do agree with the business comment.   Maybe I should start a poll to see which gets the most votes and go with that saying. Of course after building some more thoughts here as well.

Your little pentagon with the umpire inside it over the pocket is really cool I liked that design
