    What do you guys think?

    Hey guys,

    I need a "guy's opinion". What do you guys think of this Wilson Audio shirt? It is a polo by OGIO. Very light, and breathable. What do you all think of it?

    Re: What do you guys think?

    I love it. How about putting various speaker names on the sleeve (Alexia, Duette, Sophia, Sasha, etc.)?

    Re: What do you guys think?

    It looks very good to me!

    No model names please. People will either know the company or if they don't and are interested they will look it up.

    A BMW tee shirt doesn't have the models listed on the sleeve.

    Not to be a pain in the ass, but from a design standpoint, I like the "W" in Wilson joined to the "A" in Audio, but I DON'T like the "I" in Wilson joined with the "U" in Audio. The conjunction of those two letters just doesn't make it for me. Look at it some more, it will look out of place to you too. Just because you can get the letters to align doesn't make it a good combination. It works with the "W" and "A", but not the "I" and "U".

    Like I said in my earlier post, I do really like the tee shirt, but would like it better if this one change was made.

    Thank you for your honest reply. That logo was designed by my parents almost 40 years ago. It's been our logo for a looooong time. Would not dare change what they made. I have actually grown quite fond of it

    Thank you all for your comments. I have gone back and forth with logos on the sleeve also for sometime now. People seem to either love it, or hate it.

    I think the lettering is just on the too big side

    Re: What do you guys think?

    It's good; I like the W married to the A which forms a big X for Excellence, and the V above for Victory.

    * Me, I wouldn't have joined the i and u together though.

    Authenthic Excellence; I like. ...Better font letters than the above (Wilson Audio).

    ...Or a more solid design for that 'polo' shirt. ...Now, you know; anytime, or next time. ...I'm serious.

    EDIT: Wow, I didn't read any other post but the first one! ...Now I just did, and Gary and I said the exact same thing! ...Honest to God!

    Lmao!!!!!
    I'm not much for polo shirts but are there usually large logos on the back of them?
    Can't remember seeing too many like that. Looks good. I'd like the tshirt version. I'd wear it golfing , if was at a collared shirt course. Great job!!

    Thanks guys! I appreciate your feedback

    When it comes to the logo: I don't want to change anything my parents have designed (whether product designs and logos). It always has been, and always will be Wilson's logo.

    All you need is an eighth inch of "black" to separate the "I" and the "U".

    I am glad you guys like it! I didn't want to do a boring polo. I wanted to make a nice light, comfortable, cool (breathable) polo that not just felt nice, but also looked nice.

    The store should be up and running very soon. We will start with this polo and the hat (have both black and White to choose from). Every few months we will add a new item. Would be fun to hear what types of items you guys would like to have available to purchase. Have thought of a few like: coasters (in various colors we offer), light sweaters/coats, pens, cleaning kits, etc.
