AF Gear Shop Launched!

The long-awaited AF Gear Shop is now open! ---> http://www.cafeshops.com/afcom

The prices are indeed a bit high, but that is out of our control at this point - AF makes absolutely no money on this merchandise. However, the more products sold, the cheaper the prices will be.

A few pointers:
1. CafePress constantly offers various discounts. Be sure to check for CafePress Coupons on the web ( http://www.google.com/search?q=cafepress+coupon ) before making any purchases.
Current coupons:
$5 off $50 with code: SHOPNOV15 Exp 11/15
$5 off $30 with code: SPAYNEUTER Unknown Expiration
2. Surprisingly, the color does not appear to fade, as I personally have a hoodie, a golf shirt, and a t-shirt and they are all very nice.
3. Beware of the t-shirt sizes - their Large is very large. I would recommend Medium for most people.
4. The golf shirt is pretty good quality overall and has a very nice fit.
5. The hoodie is awesome and Medium size is perfect for me. (5'11, 155lb)

Re: AF Gear Shop Launched!

Nice, I think I'm going to pick up a T-shirt.

I was looking at the calender, are there any pictures in it? I think it would be neat to feature a car of the month here on the site, then at the end of the year put all the cars together into a calender featuring the selected rides.

That is exactly what I was thinking. The calendar you see there right now is just a one page deal with all the months piled in together. However, once we do get the car of the month thing rolling they will all be definately on the multi-page calendar.

I am sorry but...

I think that logo has to go.

Just my opinion

It sends the wrong communication.

I see that logo and it says: imports specifically Japanese and Skylines at that. Logos should have a more simple design and be a symbol for the entire organization.

I thought you Igor posted a request for a logo design in the graphic forum.

I guess you stopped monitoring it.

Anyway

Just my opinion

I think AF should pay for a professional to design a better logo but seeing now how AF spent tons of money to make all that gear I guess there is no point anymore.

I see that logo and it says: imports specifically Japanese and Skylines at that, it also says cartoons and looks like it was designed by a middle schooler (no offense to middle schoolers). I think something better can be designed.

Anyway

If you feel this way then why join the forums? It's the same damn logo... get over yourself.

No really I didn't notice that.
You are a master of the obvious.

Anyway, I took out the part about the cartoon. That wasn't right.

Re: AF Gear Shop Launched!

First off, I have never posted a logo design request - that was decal design request.
Second, the AF logo is enjoyed by most everyone that I have talked to.
Third, no money was spent on creating the merchandise as it is outsourced to cafepress.

..and no, the logo will not be changed.

I must have missread the post. But why have a decal request when all you have to do is use the same logo. And also did you notice everyones take on the logo in there decals, most were different from the AF logo perhaps you needed to be more clear.

Ok... I'm going to be the bigger man and not say anything other than this; You should have kept with your original post of "Whatever".
