Announcing the first official Pinside t-shirt! Pre-order now!

Cool! Glad you're liking them! Wear it with pride!

All shirts have been sent out as of today (I just entered the last couple of addresses). The shirts are shipped with USPS for United States and UPS for international. You should have received an e-mail with tracking info (if your spam filter didn't catch it, these are automated messages).

Keep the photos coming!

I have some other great news. Doing all this t-shirts stuff for the first time quickly made me realise that handling merchandise, packaging, shipping is a lot of work. I had all the t-shirts shipped to the Expo hotel and you should have seen me sitting with big stacks of shirts in boxes in our room, wondering what the heck I was going to do with all these shirts. It was then when I figured: "I didn't think this through".

Fortunately, I bumped into Tim and Kristin from Mezelmods and today I'm happy to announce that I have partnered up with them to handle all inventory, packaging and shipping for Pinside merchandise. Awesome!

We are currently selling the Ryan Claytor shirt, but also cool Pinball (R)evolution and official Pinside Logo tees.

You can find them here: https://pinside.com/pinball/market/pinside

If you are outside the USA, it could take a bit longer. Up to 10 days, I was told.

Man, no kidding. There are times when I wish I was outsourcing my translite stuff to someone, I've taped up so many boxes ... Nice work hooking up with Team Mezel!

Awe... I was so excited, I just ripped open the package. It's lost all of its NIB value. I guess this is the "unboxing" photo. Looks great. image-900.jpg

Don't worry about it! Just like pins are meant to be played, this shirt is designed to be worn!

Thanks for the great feedback, Jdfitzy-in-Aus! I've been accused of being "husky" in my youth, so I can appreciate a good husky-fit. Glad it arrived safely.

Thanks for jumpin' on-board for this, Mezels! I hear about your products on The Pinball Podcast all the time and tried to stop by to introduce myself at Expo, but you were SWAMPED every time I sauntered over. Regardless, thanks for the distribution with the shirts.

robin Maybe it’s time to design a new T-shirt. It’s been 5 years since this design and I’d like a new Pinside shirt.

I had forgot about that design. It would be a good contender for the next shirt.
