Custom Gear Report

Ok these came in last week so some of you have already gotten you hands on them. But as we discussed here and here we have our first of several morale patch designs in the shop. Quality is excellent and they come with a pre-sewn hook backing so it is ready to stick wherever you want it.

What we need now are pics of it on your gear. When you get a chance snap a photo for us and send it on in.

On the T-shirt front we are pleased with the response so far in the DIY Tactical/CGR Zazzle Store we set up. We have several Skull and Needles Shirt designs up also have a mouse pad and coffee mug up there too.

We want to introduce the first in a new series of shirts we’re working on. As a proponent of being prepared for the coming Zombie Apocalypse we are proud to announce Zombie Response Team gear.

The first Zombie Response Team shirt has is inspired by a line from a recently popular movie. Back of the shirt has a nice graphic and the phrase “You got a purty mouth” a nice way to show a little love right before you bash the suckers head in.

Front of the shirt has a logo we’ve come up with to represent the organization. Is containst the biohazard symbol on top of which is a face wearing a helmet and pro-mask, around this is a triangle made from three of the most often used Zombie eradication tools, a shotgun, a machete and the always popular baseball bat. This bat has been modified with some nails to give it a little extra pop. Finnaly the initials ZRT which of course is self explanatory.

Anyway, leave a comment, let us know what you think if you pick up any shirts or gear please send us some pics of it in action.

As noted in our previous Morale Patch post we ordered some morale patches and they should be in our hands at the beginning of next week. Here is a quick peek at the proofs we were sent.

On the T-shirt front, we’ve gone ahead and setup with a print on demand service with Zazzle.com They will be printing our t-shirts designs as well as other products from now on. I recently ordered one of the cheaper skull and needle t-shirts from them and was very happy with the quality of the shirt and the graphic, even on the lower priced product. I wanted to do a video to show it off but my video gear isn’t playing well with me right now, Once it’s sorted I’ll get something up.

The only caution I will note is that I ordered an XL which usually fits pretty loose on me and the shirt was snug. So I’d recommend ordering a size larger (maybe two if you are on the edge).

The cool thing is you can customize your shirts however you want as far as color, brand and type of shirt, style, size etc. I’d also encourage you to take a look around their site and other stores, they have some pretty cool stuff.

Another thing to note is they we have no control over your order placed through this service. Actually we don’t even know who orders, we just know that an order was placed. So if you have a problem with a product please follow the customer service instructions outlined on their site. We do ask however if you have problems drop us an email so that we can track the service they are providing and determine whether or not we want to continue doing business with them.

Lastly, I will be transferring over all of DIY Tactical’s T-shirts t this site as well this way we will never have to worry about running out.

Let us know what you think in the comments.

Here is a sneak peak of the first of several morale patch designs we are moving forward with.

All our future patches will be listed in store under the “Misc” category under Morale Patches.

The order has been placed and we should have them in stock in a couple weeks.

We also have plans for related t-shirts and other items through a print on demand service. More to follow on that…

Let us know what you think.
