Court- To me the weight of a t-shirt says alot towards quality. I am pretty hard on cloths and nothing holds up to the abuse like a Hanes Beefy-t. Its a good heavy T-shirt. If you start with a quality T-shirt I find the screen printing lasts longer too. |

30 bucks or so for a quality T 20 bucks for a nice hat 5 to 10 bucks for a patch sticker, free with purchase of one of the above or 3 bucks out the door |

1. I want decals to run on my race bike. 2. I would also like a shirt to wear in the pits, not necessarily a full button pit crew shirt, but a 3 button with collar would look nice. 3. A t-shirt, good quality that wont fade after 3 washes! 4. Tight fit t-shirt, similar to the latest Buell shirts that were available. I liked those. (usually lighter weight, very soft and comfortable, great in hot weather) 5. Ball cap to hide my helmet hair. How'd I do? (Message edited by 99buellx1 on January 26, 2010) |

Court, I rank country of origin high on my priorities for apparel. A company called American Apparel actually makes high quality products, though possibly a bit pricey. Let's keep the jobs in the U.S. please. |

Flex fit hats are my favorite! My heads too big for the adjustable kind. Lol |

Hats are hard to please everyone. I wear a hat usually, and it's not a baseball cap. I actually own about 20 hats, and none of them are baseball. Now if you could get the 'real' baseball hats that are sized to one hat size, I might be interested. Stickers and patches, yes please! T-shirts. Besides wanting mine in rainbow tie-die, I recommend only one design on a few colors of shirts, if not only one. K.I.S.S. Everything should be high quality and locally produced. |

Quality American made. I was definitly unimpressed with the quality/price of some of the older Buell t-shirts. Harley more than likely had a great influence on that. |

Court - Haynes Beefy-T is a good bet for the shirt. Black or dark, so all the oil stains don't show too soon Durable, not cheap-o fabric. Something a meatball like me can toss in the wash at the wrong temp, and dry on high...and still have a shirt, not an oven mitt. LOL. I'd also love a golf type shirt, or a s/s buttonup that I can wear to work (until they yell at me anyway). Tees in silkscreen are OK, but embroider the golfs/buttonups. Maybe pegasus on the breast, lettering across the shoulders? For the cap...did you ever get my email about the older one I'd like to find? It's a cotton twill with no support in the front, so it doesn't stand up way tall or anything. I want to say it even had a plastic support in the bill, instead of cardboard or whatever. But I like those shapes - I'm tall enough, don't need a hat that's going to stand up like a billboard making me even taller! I can resend the email if you want. For stickers...reflective, reflective, reflective. At least in a small (helmet-sticker, 1"-2") size. It'd be great to not only pimp EBR, but gain some visibility at the same time Of course, larger sizes for bikes / trucks / lockers / etc., and non-reflective as well...but some available reflective colors would be cool. I'm guessing die-cut vinyl would be the way to go, since I don't see a shaped background or anything on the logo. Also if there's a small, reflective sticker...that would make a great "with purchase" freebie as opposed to a larger bike- or window-size sticker. Patches...I'm not huge on, but I can't sew. That might have something to do with it |

+1 to the quality materials. I try to avoid cheap t shirts they tend to be really useless |

+1 Eweaver. There are lots of sources on the net for real American made T-shirts. Beware of stuff made in Mauritius, which is only technically American. |

+1 on quality over cheapness. I have to disagree on the tight shirts. I am sorry, but I hate the last two Buell shirts I bought because of the tight fit. I normally wear large and those things fit like mediums. I have my opinions on the tight shirt look, but lest I offend someone, let me just say it's not my style. |

Almost all shirts are tight on me, and not around my chiseled pecs. Think Homer Simpson. |

I like the t shirts that are real soft but I will wear any of them as long as it is to support EBR. the hats I really like are the flex hats every one is talking about that look fitted since my current buell one is starting to loose its color. |

I also vote for quality. American made, if possible. Just tell me the price, I'll send the money. |

Just received my latest purchase from EBR. A box full of random goodies! Now the race bike should be pretty much ready to go. |

+1 on the nice T-shirts. For ball caps, PLEASE make them adjustable. Those elastic-banded ones that Buell used for a while are NOT suited for us big-meloned folks. |

I can't stand the adjustable hats. The elastic hats do come in a lot of sizes from child through xx large. |

Nice quality t-shirts, and not the fitted type. +1 with Ratbuell's black Hanes Beefy-T suggestion. I like print on both sides, too. I like the velcro hats, the recent black pegasus hat with the small Buell on the bill is one of my favorite fits. |
