Madison Hardware Clothing

Is there any chance that you might offer a t shirt with pocket in the future?  At an age where I have to have my reading glasses with me at all times, I will not buy a shirt without a pocket.

Love the logo.

Happy railroading

Don

Derek,

Will you be offering to void the pending orders for those that were on the shirt provider's waiting list for a possible second run so that we can order from your current selection?

Second the interest in T-shirts with pockets if possible.

Our printer currently does not offer a shirt with a pocket. Will keep it in mind though if they ever do.

Keystone,

I'll see what I can do to close the old campaign out. You would not get charged for those unless there was a sudden surge and we sold 12 of them. That campaign is not actively being promoted anywhere, but I'll try to close it up just to tie up the loose ends.

Derek,

Thanks for the quick reply and I'll follow for any updates.

I just disabled auto relaunch. This will keep the campaign from reopening. The campaign will still technically exist, but would not fill orders unless I approved them. Feel free to order away on the new shirts tomorrow!

Good morning everyone! Ordering is now open. Follow the link at the top. 

Thanks,

Derek

It has been brought to my attention that finding the multiple colors and styles of shirts is a bit more difficult this time.  For Additional Colors and Styles use the "Additional Styles" Menu on the right. We have grey, orange, and white as base colors this time.

Thanks!

Derek

Ordered a orange Sweatshirt eh

Thank you Chad! Every order counts!

My order has been submitted!

Thanks, Derek

My order is in....thanks!

Just wanted to take a second and say thank you! We're 2/3rds of the way to our goal and we're only two days in. That's why this is the best forum in the world. Thanks again! 

Ordered mine !!!!

Thanks

I was checking the size chart, and I was left a little uncertain.  I ordered a T-shirt in large and it fit me just fine.  I notice, however, that the T-shirts and hoodies are sized differently now (maybe they were too the last time, but I wasn't looking at hoodies).   The T-shirt large chest is 22, and the hoodie large chest is 24.  I'm a little confused too because I have always seen chest sizes as circumferences.  If the large T-shirt fit me well what size hoodie should I order.

Also, I want to complement you for the cut on the shirt.  Since so many Americans are fat, and I'm not, it is hard to buy a shirt that isn't cut like a big box tent.  I appreciate the height-weight proportionate cut.

Thanks,

Alan

I would echo the same comment.  I've never seen men's sizes like this, rather the circumference measurement is much more standard and common.  I typically order XL t-shirts, sweatshirts, and sport/suit-jackets.  And I run between 46L-48L, depending on the cut.

I'd like to order the long-sleeve shirt (without the hoodie) in orange w/blue lettering.

Thanks for any clarification you can provide.

Sorry I missed this until now! I'm not very knowledgeable about clothing sizes to be very honest with everyone, so I'm going to give you the feedback that I'm hearing. The t-shirts seem to run a bit smaller than most normal  off the rack shirts. I believe this is because we have gone with a higher grade shirt than just the normal Hanes, etc. So if in doubt I would order a size larger on the T- shirts. The sweatshirts seem to follow traditional cuts as they are a Gliden product. I believe these run a bit larger and so should have more room than the t-shirts. The sizing chart that TeeSpring provides seems to support this. Hope this provides a bit of insight from my end. If in doubt please contact Teespring By Clicking HERE They should be able to answer specific sizing questions.

And with that note, one week down and two weeks to go!

Sweatshirts (ie Hoodies) are sized a little larger as they're designed to be worn over other clothing. 

Sitting here at the booth at York waiting for things to wind down. Thank you all who stopped by, got posters, or ordered shirts. The response was AWESOME! Just a reminder to those on the forums you have a few days left to order. I think this will be it for this design for awhile. I have something new in mind that's not Madison for later this year. 

Thanks all! 

Derek

is the long sleeve a sweatshirt or a T shirt?????

Hi Lenny, 

The long sleeve is more a shirt material than a sweatshirt material. Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Derek

If I have not mentioned it yet..... YOU HAVE LESS THAN 48 HOURS TO SHOP! 

Here's some music to listen to while you make your Madison Hardware shirt purchase. 

Final Call! Closing Time. 

Got my sweatshirt yesterday Thanks

The most things people rember about Madison Hardware is the sign over the store.

Can't you make a long sleeve (for winter) and short sleeve (for summer) that looks like this...

We could, but it's a path that both Lionel and I agree we don't wish to partner in at this moment. I do have a new design on the drawing board for this Fall that I actually like the most of anything we have put out so far. Expect to see something sometime in September. 

Still interested in a conventional button shirt, either long or short sleeve. Like the black and your "new" Madison Hardware logo. Not everyone is into polo shirts.

I second Brian's request!  I did buy a long sleeve tee shirt, but prefer the oxford shirt Brian mentioned.  I even wear them working outdoors unless it is really hot out.

Mark and Brian, 

I think after the venture into Polo's that is it for the embroidered logo. The original t-shirts and sweatshirts did significantly better than the Polos did. I like the embroidered logo myself and ordered a few Polos for myself. That being said runs of 20 shirts just are not worth the setup of the embroidered logo. Hate to say it, but that's just the reality of it. Thanks as always for the encouragement and support guys. 

Derek, could you share what number makes sense for you to produce a run of shirts. I spent a lot of my professional career in sales and I like the logo a lot, so I would go out of my way to promote it.

You might also want to think of doing something for the OGR Forum family with a shirt for them. Just an idea for you.

I would certainly buy an OGR Forum shirt!

I'm interested in Madison Hardware and have bought a few shirts (though not the current one). I think I'm sated with Madison Hardware stuff at present, although I will likely buy the book when you finish it.

I'm eager to see what else you have up your sleeve, but probably would not buy any more Madison Hardware stuff (other than the book) at present.  Not trying to be a wet blanket, just expressing that I'm "Madison Hardwared out" at present.  If there's enough interest in a Madison Hardware sport shirt, by all means proceed .

I completely get that. That's why we're going to wait until September on the new shirts. Give folks some time to wear out the old ones. I figure after this book is done I'll be Madisoned out for at least the next decade. 

Did Mrs. B. Tell you Mark's been wearing his long sleeve Madison around the house when she has the air conditioning cranked up?  ;-)
