i don't believe you
non of my 5 hats have any ratings
good choice
i'll have mine in NATURAL
medium size
with OZSTOC patch
front and rear
Which ever way it goes, a dark green colour under the lid is good at reflecting glare.
NOW come on " S ", some prices etc. from your hip pocket

what about those "cat in a hat" type kids wear today. :hatwave
Don't write caps out, they have they're place. I would buy one of each. I wear a cap more often than a hat, but if I'm spending time in the sun then I'll go for a light broad brimmed hat.
WHAT VEST ????????????????
lol i dont have one yet...
so nobody liked my idea :'(
Tell em to bugger off, by a badge and stick it on wotever they want

Agree With Brock here on Hats, Caps and Vests
We settle for a Colour (so we all match) (maybe a sep colour for the Ladies)
and then sew on Logos ,,,,,,ie small for caps & Hats and a Large one for the vest.
Now maybe Streak could organise these thru his Business or we go and get our own so long as we know what colour and style to get.
My 10 cents worth :p :p
Tipsy
gents just wait and see :) i am working on all this as we speak.
Sorry dab, no disrespect intended. But I wouldn't wear one.
Dark cap and light colour hat.
I think the ST1300 and 1100 Are needed to promote what we're are trying to promote, otherwise it's just some random letters OzSTOC mean nothing to a prospective member or another motorbike enthusiast.
If you had shown me those letters without explanation when I first got my ST I wouldn't have known what they meant. But place the bike there and "hey, that's my bike"
Ok that's about 50cents worth.
People,
I am comming fairly late in this discussion but would like to suggest A legionair cap as supplied by the Cancer Council.

These caps are spf50 and cooler to wear than most caps or hats. They stow very well in an ST glove box. They have a toggle to adjust the size.
Could I also suggest that we pick up the orange colour from our shirt an use this for the cap. This would serve two purposes.
1) Tie the hat colour to ou existing colours.
2) increase the visibility of the user thus adding to the safty of the wearer whirl road side with their bike.
You may also want to consider visibility when deciding on a colour for the vest. Black is the worst colour to make you visible on a dull winters day. :wht13
ok this is some of the stuff we have come up with
Caps, will cost around the $10-$15 (Below is not the actual cap we would use, just something i had in the shop)
([url]http://i1222.photobucket.com/albums/dd499/ozstoc/2012-10-03132556.jpg[/url])
Bucket Hats, Will cost around the $16-$18 Mark (Below is a basic bucket hat, i am looking at other designs
([url]http://i1222.photobucket.com/albums/dd499/ozstoc/2012-10-03132634.jpg[/url])
Vests: Guessing around the $24-$30 Mark (the vest below i think we can do in a Navy or Black)

We had to take the essence of the logo to embroider it as it is to stitch heavy to be cost effective, and also for it to fit properly with the detail on the caps and bucket hats.
Happy to hear thoughts and opinions?
Definatly need the ST1100 and ST1300 on the caps/hats/vest. Point of order, the 1100 has to be first as it was made first and without it being a great bike Honda wouldn't have sold any, and so no 1300.
:bl11
Let me explain this one a little better, it is not as simple as wacking something on a hat or a shirt.
If you read all the posts here, you all want different colours of hats, and then some want hats, and then caps, I am paying my digitizer to redraw the Ozstoc logo so it will fit on bucket hats correctly, as the badges wont fit properly, and the logo itself is over 20,000 stitches and does not stitch out well on just a shirt or a badge. the next problem is cost, we have t purchase around 50 of either caps or bucket hats to be able to buy it and put in the shop at any reasonable cost.
Caps are simple, they are adjustable, and easy to deal with.
Bucket hats are another problem as one size does not fit all, there are small, medium, large, and extra large, so we just cant buy one size.
Vests are another problem again, as has already pointed out, some want vests some want a full jacket style with sleeves.
so it is not as simple as giving a price, and putting it up for sale, we have such a diverse range of members, and wants and likes, we just cant make it all.
I do my very best to cater where I can, and coming up with ideas, but i would appreciate a little bit of slack when it comes to doing all this as there is quite a bit involved.
if you have problems with any of the above your welcome to ring me on 0488 385 858 if you need further explanation :thumb
Cheers

I will have one of eack :thumbs
If the intention is to promote what we are about, then wy not replace the"ST 1100 ST 1300" wording with "Honda ST Owners Club"
When I people ask what I ride I often reply, ST1100. To which they answer, "oh a BMW "
Hey Streak, My 2 cents.
Bucket hat needs the ST1300 ST1100 on it as well. Cap looks great, velcroe adjustment on the back would be good.
I thought we were talking about a leather vest, my mistake. But they look good, I'd be able to wear one during the Townsville Winter, this year winter was on a Wednesday.
Looking very good :thumb
I like it,
And thats all that matters
Ok here is the Latest design we have come up with, remember we have limited space to work with on caps and bucket hats, so we are working simple, make it stand out, and retain the essence of the badge we put on all our shirts.

We where really happy with how it came out, i think it would look fantastic, but we would really appreciate the thoughts from as many of OzSTOC as possible, as we do this for all of you, so we want you to have a say in it.

We have had a couple of suggestions from our Facebook Page, with adding Honda into it somewhere, and also maybe changing the top line colours to ST OWNERS CLUB to work in Honda Colours as well, just food for thought
Shiney, your more than just a pretty face, looks brilliant :thumbs
Having the top line in red and white should look good :thumb
Here is the original changed to red (just did it quickly in MS Paint to give an idea what it would look like)

IF it was in GOLD
it would be better !!!
I am not going to create different things for different people, the group has always had a consistent look with badges, shirts, stickers and the like.
what we decide on will be what the majority of the group decides, it is the only way it works, hence why i keep putting up ideas.
Teela has made a very good suggestion about caps in doing them Orange with a white strip in the peak, and then doing the logo on it so the bikes stand out more, so i am going to have a fiddle today and see how it looks.
It is looking like caps will be the way to go, and I will do bucket hats for those who want them, but we will have to make sure head sizes are right as being blunt there wont be returns because it didnt fit.
i am just trying to remember the bugger who nominated me to be the merchandising man :rofl :rofl

Streak, sorry to be a pain but I thought the idea was to make HATS, not silly baseball caps. I don't play baseball and neither does the vast majority of the rest of the worlds population, only the yanks and the Japanese do.
Baseball caps look like you've got a duck on your head and they don't keep the sun off your ears, so they won't stop you burning. :well
The name of the thread is OzSTOC HATS, so when you have a design for a Hat that provides me and both my ears with shade please can you let me know and I'll gladly purchase one, till then...
Reply Number 65 (Page 2) has a picture of a bucket hat that would suit me just fine...anything except a stupid baseball cap! >:(...way too Americanised for my taste!
... and Sabie just what the h**l is "puggaree"? ...sounds vaguely disgusting to me :eek

before you all get your knickers in a twist there are reasons why we are pushing the caps agenda...
Bucket hats are a real problem as they are in multiple sizing, this is taken straight from my suppliers website:
Supplier 1.
Bucket hat Sizing: Sizes: S/S, S/M and L/XL
Supplier 2.
Medium, Large, Extra Large
so we would have to order say 25 of each size, and hope that they sell evenly, we don't have the cash in the bank to have $500 worth of hats kicking around, as the smaller amounts you do the more it costs.
with some you can get "fits most heads" so what do we do for the people that buy one and it does not fit?
I live in this industry, and i create caps and bucket hats for work places & sporting groups every week, all the stuff i am telling you are the same problems we run into on a daily basis.
Hence why i am pushing towards caps, one size fits all, there is no wastage, and we don't have to order big lots to cover it, we can just keep it ticking over :thumb
I've got a couple of those blue caps with the red checks too Sabie.. just a couple of different logos on the front.
I avoid caps because I've had so many things chopped out of me I try to keep the sun off my face, ears and neck as much as possible. I'd be happy with an OzStoc patch and stitch it to the front of a good quality sun hat.
Gents,
It has taken Streak a lot of time effort and money to develop the design for the hat/cap. As has been stated, its not economically nor logistically viable at this time to go down the road of a bucket ht due to sizing issues..
I will be placing an order for the cap when its available. I dont need to worry about protecting my ears, as they were burned off by the Mrs years ago, and the neck has been blasted thru with withering looks as I cant hear so good for some reason.... :grin :grin :grin
Shouldn't the caps read OzBMWstoc? :rofl
