codhead Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 While it's a bit more costly than a T-shirt, I work with a guy that does embroidary on the side. He has a couple of CNC embroidary machines (we're talking serious equipment here - the size of a washing machine). It would be a piece of cake for him to do a pie slice logo on the back of a jacket. If anyone is interested, I can have him make me a sample and post pics. Since the artwork is already done, it's a quick process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fini Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 That sounds pretty cool! Would we send a jacket (jeans/draperies/bedsheets/6-person tents), or does he have a good connection for these things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Dee Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 I'd sure be interested in seeing some pics of his work. Any idea on price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel's wife Posted February 11, 2006 Moderators Share Posted February 11, 2006 Very interested. Why couldn't he also do high quality t-shirts? Would love to see pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codhead Posted February 11, 2006 Author Share Posted February 11, 2006 I'll take him the artwork on Monday, and see what he says. I've seen some of his work, and it's nicer than a couple of Hard Rock jackets I have. I think the cost would be pretty reasonable. No middle man involved. I know he can do embroidary on just about anything, but not sure if he orders jackets or you have to supply them. I'll get the details, have one made up, and you guys can let me know what you think.

Joe Shmoe Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 And why haven't we heard anything form Klipsch on these ideas? Do they not mind that their logo is being bootlegged? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrWho Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Bootlegged? They are very open about their fan base using their logo in different ways...it's not like coats would be in direct competition with klipsch - heck, it's free advertising [] I think I would be interested in a klipsch jacket, but that'll depend on the price and how it turns out []...I've been needing to get a spring/fall coat as my leather one is just too warm most of the time.

codhead Posted February 12, 2006 Author Share Posted February 12, 2006 I'll post again tomorrow, when I get some details to pass on. I've got the logos on my memory stick to take to work with me. I'm going to try to get a jacket done with a large pie slice on the back, and a small one on the front. Don't know if he has jackets, or if I'll have to go buy one. I do know that he can do this. Same guy showed me an E-mail with a funny military patch on it. I said "Man, I wish I had one of those." The next morning, he threw one on my desk. Made it for me just for fun.

codhead Posted February 14, 2006 Author Share Posted February 14, 2006 Talked with the embroidary guy at work today. He says the pie slice would be a piece of cake. Does not sell clothing, but he can scale the logo and put it on almost anything. His concern is doing a copyrighted logo without the express permission of Klipsch. He'll make me one, but he really does not want to mass produce them without some kind of official blessing. So... maybe the Klipsch folks would be willing to give the okay to do a limited run just for Forum members (no outside sales). Whatcha think Klipsch folks?

Spkrdctr Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Spinner, your correct. Amy will not respond unless she recieves the customary $40.00 consultation fee. Remember, she is not stupid!
