[FEELER] Group Buy for NWI INGO T-Shirts

[jedi]

Would there be an interest for a NWI INGO T-Shirt Group buy wih our logo?

If you vote yes what size T-Shirt would you buy & what is the max you would pay for a T-Shirt?

NOTE THIS IDEA HAS NOT BEEN PASSED/APPROVED BY THE "INGO BRASS" YET AS I MAKE THIS POST THEY ARE ALSO GETTING THIS INFO. SO EVEN IF THERE IS INTEREST IF THEY DO NOT APPROVE IT WILL NOT OCCUR.

In for at least one 3x

No desire for one at all.

If I wear a pro-gun shirt I want people to know its a pro-gun shirt. That shirt says INGO but unless you are familiar with this website the term INGO imparts no meaning to the person reading the shirt.

Change the logo, or add some wording that indicates that INGO is a pro-gun organization and then I may buy one. But as it is, then I have no desire.

It is rare that I wear a T-shirt, when I do, it says what I mean. Last night I wore a T-shirt to fencing with an Ayn Rand quote on it, I wore it specifically because one of the coaches is a liberal/socialist/union thug.

& melensdad brings up a good point.

Should we change our NWI INGO logo? =)

 

[sadclownwp]

yes

change the logo

 

[jedi]

yes

change the logo

2 what?

 

[CSORuger]

Two if 5X is offered.

 

[Davegrave]

I'll take 2. Large.
I'm not big on the logo but don't hate it. But I disagree with melensdad. I like that its understated and not everyone will get it. I prefer it strongly.
I'll also add, I'd prefer to pay more for some quality shirts that will fit well and last than to get them for $15 and have super thin crappy material.

Fair enough.

As for your point that "not everyone will get it." I can only ask, one question: Other than the VERY SMALL percentage of the population who belong to INGO, who will get it?

Honestly I'd have to say that, from the statistical standpoint, NOBODY will get it. Sure, quite a few people in the area will understand NWI. But honestly who will actually understand INGO. I'd be willing to bet the at least 70% of the spouses of INGO married members don't know the term INGO.

I'm not crazy about the logo. But I like the more subtle "pro-gun" shirts, it gets people to ask "what's INGO?"
They don't see it as "threatening" (not the right word but first that comes to mind) where some would automatically judge you if you were wearing an NRA or brand specific shirt.

What is NWI mean?
I also agree that more info on the shirt would be good. Maybe a gun and the web address? Or smaller print spelling out what INGO means?

 

[Davegrave]

I like that few will get it. Like a freemason handdshake, only identifying you to those in the know. Covert ops, Bob!

NWI typically means NorthWest Indiana which is composed of the LAKE, Porter, LaPorte, Netwon, and Jasper County.
Northwest Indiana - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

However to those that like in Lake County is really just means us. The rest are just "fugly step brother & sisters of ours".

Now if you are an Indianapolis resident or near Indy then NWI means NorthWest side of the City of Indianapolis resident.

So it does depend on where you are at.

So I live in Anderson. Do I get a CI INGO shirt or maybe a NEI shirt??

 

[lonehoosier]

I will take a 3X. I say keep the logo. It represents us as the NWI group amung the rest of INGO. I am not trying to say it's us versus them.

 

[.45 Dave]

No I was just kidding. The important part is to promote INGO however it's done. I do think a website address would be a good addition though.

Nope! While us in LAKE County consider those in the other NWI counties fugly.... we think even far worse of you southern redneck, steal all our money Rs who are down south of us! Cause we people up here are corrupt Ds don't u know.

I'll say it for you lone. It IS an us vs them. Let the other regions work on their own shirt.

Agree that a url to the website would help.

Again this is still all talk and we have NOT gotten a confirmation from the INGO BRASS as well. So it's all up in the air. Not to mention right now it looks more like a "small buy". No clue how much at these levels the shirts would cost.

How about we tax the non-NWI INGO members and use that money to pay for the shirts for those of us special folks who live in da region
