GORUCK Challenge

My vote would be just the logos, without words. Black background. White Arrowhead. Red W. Clean and simple. Recognizable from a distance. Would look great on bags and hats. And I think it lines up well with the aesthetics of both brands.

Just arrowhead and W?

^Yeah. GORUCK has patches with just the arrowhead, and unless you're familiar with this thread, you probably wouldn't understand the significance of the patch if there were words, anyway.

if ya know, ya know…

I was just clarifying what Z was asking for but thanks for the condescending answer :-\

No bags, clarification is always appreciated! certainly was not intended to be condescending.

I think I may have misread it as a statement towards me when it was just a general statement, all good

Note: All my art supplies are in storage. I did this with sharpies, and these are the only colors I could find (the dark green is a light green over brown). I can send someone a basic design and you guys can fill it in electronically with more accurate colors. Give me a moment to draw up a blank one.

Haha, bags, that wasn't my intention, but after re-reading my comment I can see how it could have been interpreted that way. Admittedly, a poor choice of words.

thanks for sharing jaco…
after reading through it, i'm not so sure about it if you/we really should "modify" that patch in some sort of way. not sure if it would disrespect the actual purpose of it!?
maybe we should just create a special patch for the boys&girls of the IH crew that went through all of this along with you.
so actually same meaning as the "GORUCK tough" patch has for those guys, just for the Works/IH crew and just in reference to the challenge the stubborn crew went through?

I was under the impression that is what we are doing?

from what is shown on the page before we're only modifying the original tough patch so far, instead of creating a complete new one…that's just me though!

maybe we can get V.O. to "create" something?!…

@adam313:

Once again thanks jaco for posting things that are already on their website, which I (and others) have already read.

I had not until Jaco posted it….

@Nerkg:

Where is this challenge taking place?

Great question, I am sorting it all out currently. It started out looking like Colorado, but given the high altitude here and the fact that these challenges are demanding enough without the addition of elevation. So now we are now looking at spots with a more reasonable altitude. Not to mention someplace we will all want to hang out and is relatively convenient for everyone to travel to. As soon as the location is picked I will post it in this thread.

I think Adam is doing a great job already. I haven't committed to this yet but most likely will join in.

Adam, thanks for the designs so far.

@urbanwoodsman:

thanks for the designs so far.

Much appreciated urban. I'm making a few without the arrowhead logo so we can move past this, "you shouldn't be doing this" vibe. Pics soon.

I'm thrilled that you're considering this!
