I voted yes, but I already have a black one from the store.

I would say it depends. But a sprint run sold at Blade would probably be the only way it would make sense. Just too much work to pack and ship all those shirts.
Otherwise, allowing another company to handle the sales would be easy. Just need permission from SY, but also very little financial benefit to SY.

They do have black with the logo in the store and they haven't had my size for quite some time now. Also, I don't think it costs more to print the same logo on a variety of colored shirts so I wasn't suggesting anything that would cost SY more $ than what they are already offering...Just more colors and sizes. I would expect them to make something off of the shirts as I'm sure they do with the current ones. It would help sales because more people would wear them and that would, or at least, might attract new customers. I wear my Larue Tactical Tee shirt all the time and I can't tell you how many people ask about it and then go to the site and make purchases. I've had 2 buddies buy scope mounts from them and they hadn't heard of Larue until they asked about my T-shirt. In the long run something as simple as a T-shirt CAN attract customers and make $. It is simple marketing and brand recognition.
thanks for the comments!

I have been keeping an eye out for a restock of t shirts, I just figured it wasn't a high priority. I think someone from Spyderco said something like 'You want us to make knives or t shirts"? I have heard stocking clothing can be a pain for smaller companies because you have to stock various sizes and colors. I know a few places who sell tactical gear got the pants and shirts because it was a pain.

Whenever I buy knives, I look at the shirts, and it seems that only sizes from Omar the tent maker are available. I want a tee shirt not a night shirt for the wife..A pocket tee would be a bonus too.

Although I already have a few of the black Scrap Yard tee shirts, I would most likely buy a new variation, similar to what Jerry has done with Busse/Hog shirts. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
