OzSTOC Hats (At Haieg's request)

[Streak]

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

it was probably that bugger Graham Strang in Toowoomba

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.

Awesome work as always Streak
I love it

Cheers

Looks good 

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

like this one

IF it was in GOLD
it would be better !!!

thanx
for the EFFORT
BUT my girls say the colour is ORANGE


and we WANT   " GOLD " !!

just wanted to say this is a long quote  :)

Hi Streak,
Just caught up with this thread. I have been away from the forum for a while doing other things. The only comment I would make about your latest hat Logo is that the two bike Silhouettes still make it a little busy for a hat or cap. How about ditching the image of the two bikes and replace it with the word Honda. (There is only one colour for a cap as far as I am comcerned and that is black).

[Streak]

ok Ladies & Gents,
               I have taken all thoughts and conversation on board, and i have come up with a caps logo combination that works i think, we looked at putting the honda in there, and changing some of the colours, but we really wanted to retain the essence of our logo, so see below the cap and logo combination we have come up with, i think it will look very smart and tie in with our current look.

There is no Honda or Australia in there as it would make it to big, and would make all the writing to small

what do you all think?

[Brock]

Nice.

[tj189]

i like ti too 

[bluehonda]

Streak, I think it's great but since you asked, or am I being a pain in the neck?
Since we read from left to right in this country, I think the bikes should appear from left to right in chronological order.
I'll be wearing one no matter which way they are.

[Streak]

Hi Brad,
             if we did that we would have to change the entire logo, as everything we have has the bikes that way, so changing that is not an option.

and no your not a pain, you can only but ask.

[harieg]

HO HUM


YAWN


A yawn is a reflex of simultaneous inhalation of air and stretching of the eardrums, followed by exhalation of breath. Pandiculation is the act of yawning

[bluehonda]

I understand and also appreciate that we talk openly.
Really I guess there'd still be as much interest if it only had ST Owners Club without any logo.
It's much better with a logo.
Glad you're at the helm.

Streak,

I love it  , stop development and go to print  . Can I order one please. 
I think by now you've realised that the majority of us love the work you've done and appreciate the effort you have gone to. But please, consider that further development for the sake of a few voices may be overdoing it and possibly unnecessary.

Here is a thought, put it up to a vote if you really want a final bit of feedback.

regards

Ruben

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.

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...

[Sabie]

Hi Streak

Looks really great, I'd be very happy to wear both the cap and the hat with that logo.

I think you have done an outstanding job.  Let us all know when we can put our orders in....

Top job 

 

Hey Whiz, majority rulz  , I've gotta wear on as part of my uniform, otherwise it's a peak cap or felt hat with puggaree. 

[sargent]

Can't wait to get me hands on a couple of each.
Top job Streak.

[Whizz]

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 

[Brock]

Pugaree is the band around a hat like the kaki one on an Army slouch hat.

and caps!!     silly idea
leave the back of your neck exposed to radiation (from the sun)

[Streak]

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

Whizz I'm surprised you don't know what a puggaree is!!

In the photo below, the red and blue band around the felt hats are the puggaree, the hats are hot to wear for a long time, but better than being in the sun. The Officer (back to us) is wearing a peak cap, as an officer I have one for Official functions. But you feel like a bit of a dork with it on. Also I wear the same uniform as the officer in the photo has on, which is the day work uniform. The recruits have station wear uniform on.

So we also have a baseball cap to wear (like the Coppers but with red check) for everyday use. It's not American, just practical.

Cheers Sab

my girls and i were at montville 2 weeks ago a, white bucket with internal adjustable band
$15:00
i should have bought it for a sample

SORRY all

may be i'll take them back up this weekend
or go for a ride  !!!!!!!!!!!, if we can remember which shop

[Bikebear]

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.
