I have had a few e-mail chats with those nice people over at Headsweats and they have agreed that rather than one of us taking shipment for all the Hats and Visors and having to then repackage and ship out to the rest of us all over the world - They will ship individually to all of us . When we have the design finalized and we place the order it will be as simple as e-mailing Matt at headsweats and he will do the rest <img alt="banana.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/banana.gif"><br><br>
Unfortunately they are not abloe to do individual orders in the future - as they outsource the embroidery so they need at least 30+ to make it financially viable at any one time<br><br>
So make sure you get your order in<br><br>

Thanks for all of your hard work, Neil.<br><br>
Yes, let us know when to pull the trigger. I'd hate to miss out.

 

[Kate60]

Great negotiating Neil, very much appreciated!

 

[Doug33]

Excellent job, Neil. Looking forward to seeing the final design.

 

[Stitcher]

Yay....<br>
We'll need to have an order time and deadline to make sure this is something that we can do again if we need to.<br><br>
maybe, if this works out, they'd do something like this for us on an annual basis......<br>
That way, we can get updates if we want, and they still have a bulk order to send to the embroiderers.

Awesome, awesome news Neil! Thanks for picking up the ball on this.<br><br>
Any idea what the lead time may be on the gear? I'd love to have everything ready by mid-May at the latest, just in time for the bulk of race season.

 

[neil donnelly]

Hobey<br><br>
The lead time is 3-4 weeks but with all these things I expect it would be a little longer<br><br>
So I suspect the sooner we order the better<br><br>

The Ironmate said she'd have something later today or tonight. I will be sure to post as soon as she's done. She thanks you for your patience. I'll get the scoop, too, such as if she needs more information or feedback or what.<br><br>
Neil: Just occured to me that I haven't given you an order. I apologize. Figure me for one of each. Maybe more, but that'll do for now.

 

[juliemboyle]

One of each for me too.<br><br>
Thanks for doing this!

 

[Alaska Mike]

I think I speak for everyone here when I say that Ironmate doesn't need to thank us for our patience. She's the one doing us the favor. Please extend our thanks to her.<br><br>

Big thanks to everyone involved in getting all of this together.

 

[hobey]

A big fat 1 to that! You've got a special girl there Thor, but then you already know that.

 

[neil donnelly]

Thor tell Heather she is a superstar and we are the ones who are thanking her<img alt="notworthy.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/notworthy.gif"><br><br>
I had already factored you in for a couple <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"><br><br><br>

Just out of sheer curiosity, Neil, what is the total order count for hats and visors? I am curious as to how popular this idea is.

 

[neil donnelly]

So far the Hats seem to have just won the nomination with<br><br>
31 Hats and 20 Visors - spread over 35 <span style="font-size:x-large;"><span style="color:#0000FF;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><b><span style="font-family:'Century Gothic';">L.I.T.'ers<br><br></span></b></span> <span style="font-family:'Century Gothic';"><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:small;">Neil</span></span></span></span></span></span>
