      @Filthy @Palmer so yeah, it turned out a charcoal color. Still damp in the photos. I don't hate it, but it certainly could be darker. I like white shirts, but at my best I am a slob so darker colors tend to hide that a bit more.

      I'm going to purchase some of that stuff you two suggested and redye it in the future. I am penny pinching because my fiance and I are about to welcome two puppies into our home this Friday!

        @oaktavia the blue/orange from the logo look nice against charcoal…maybe you don’t need a full black tshirt. A somewhat darker (and more even) charcoal would be brilliant for the logo colors IMO. A second dyeing with the same product would probably get you there.
        Good job.

        The journey is the objective.

          @mojojojoe thanks for the feedback. I'm not totally concerned with it being super dark, but there is a bit of unevenness to it that a second dye job would help. I'll likely do this in the future but for now, it'll be this way.

                  Yeah I think I might just leave it as is. Looks good now that it's dry.

                    @Oaktavia one thing I didn't say is to make sure to wash that separately or with other black clothes or it will bleed all over everything.

                        Any chance that any of these tasty t offerings from Japan could ever make their way to Gosport?

                          The strange things that wake you up in the night - I was woken last night thinking about the snaps or buttons that were left in the sea in Gosport to be used on a shirt/shacket.

                          Which item was that?

                            I remember this but can’t recall what they were used for.

                            I received a $100 gift card for Amazon but can’t think of anything I should use it for.  Can I have some suggestions?

                                I just got Katie a Mr Coffee Cafe Barista espresso machine that does espresso, cappuccino and lattes  for her bday.  We love it.  I was a black coffee kind of guy and now I’m all about that foam.

                                  The nitro brews are awesome.  Maybe I’ll get a kegerator and try to figure that one out.

                                    No sorry.  Haraki did them in a rush argot to ask us if we wanted any.  He fessed up this morning….

                                    We released 2 new designs of loop wheel T-shirts on the other day. We released in late summer and I didn’t introduce to UK. Didn’t I? I hadn’t introduced, yes?

                                    This year, I was late for deciding the designs. Also I wanted to sell shirts in Spring and I planned to release T-shirts in summer. That’s why the schedule became like this.
                                    I’m sorry.
                                    Next year, I will introduce you earlier.

                                    HARAKI"

                                        Pretty cool design on the 21oz.

                                        "next year I will introduce you earlier"–---sounds promising
