Live Steel Strings T-Shirts now available---$5

Post by Sid Hudson »

Hey guys,

Just a quick note to all of our customers:

We have had many requests over the last year for Live Steels Strings T-Shirts.

So……., I called up my buddy Tommy Dodd and ask for his advice on T-Shirts because that boy sells a lot of T-Shirts.

Tommy told me that by far that Black was the best seller and the most popular sizes were extra large and XX Large.

So here is what we have;

Black Live Steel T-Shirt in XL and XXL
Navy Blue Live Steel T-Shirt XL and XXL

The T-Shirts will shrink 5% after you wash and dry them.
I am 5’ 10” and weigh 188 pounds and the XL shirt is the one for me. I like my T-Shirt to fit somewhat loose so my belly is not the center of attention.

The T-Shirt sales have nothing to do with making money. We just decided to do this out of many requests from our customers.

We chose the heaviest material available for the T-Shirts so they are nice and thick.
The brand of the T-Shirt is Gildan (Ultra Cotton).

Looks like we have about $5.00 in the cost of getting these very nice shirts made up.

Your cost? $5.00 plus whatever the actual shipping cost is to send it you.

Enjoy the strings!

I just shipped one of my shirts to middle TN. It cost $5.80. I would like to know how you can sell yours for $5.00. I am concerned that I have over priced mine. Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Got my order and so fast.
Great shirt Sid and even better CD - Wow! That Watermelon Man brings back memories.
Paddy - you would swim in an XL mate but the blue would go great with that new red 'beast'. Get back to Rugby training and "bulk up" - Oh! and double those Texas club sangers too. Fit in no time ha ha.

Jim my Rugby playing days are behind me mate, but the hills still beckon for a bowhunting trip on a regular basis - it helps me stay "medium"

There is some discrimination going on here. A XXXL costs $7. Anyone would think that they take extra material or something!! :lol:

Just ordered 2 T's and a set of strings. Thanks Sid! :D
