All, the teeshirt brand that the original oval RTH logo shirts were using was discontinued by the mnfr which is why that logo had all but disappeared from the shop. Due to requests that I've had recently I finally got around to creating new listings on current products. Dark teeshirts with white logoLight teeshirts with dark logoBoth of these are very good quality Bella + Canvas shirts that are soft with well formed necklines that don't turn to bacon. I have several of these that are over a year old and they are holding up nicely. They fit nicely to size, maybe a touch on the small side which could just be that I have quite the spare tire going around the middle  I haven't gotten any sweatshirts done yet but I will ... soonish. FYI if anyone is curious - after the contract printer costs and Etsy seller fees approximately $8 from a product sale makes it's way to me. Even if we only make one or two sales a month, every little bit helps maintain the site and pay for our monthly Ad Free subscription (for logged in members) as well as monthly hosting etc. I get asked a lot how folks can give back and help support the forum financially and my answer is always the same - buy a shirt or mug and give it to your favorite rockhound - or request a custom shirt/hat/mug product with a different subject slogan - it doesn't have to be about rocks if you have a family member who is really into something else. Even suggesting new slogans, products, etc. that can help grow the store is helpful to me because designing "something from nothing" is not my strongest trait. |

Tommy Coincidentally, I went to the shop today to get another RTH coffee mug like Cafe Press had, but you don't have it in the etsy shop. Any plans we can get a nice big RTH mug again?

It's no trouble! Just pick something you like from the store along with size, color, custom wording, etc. and PM me your shipping info and done. |

Sorry for the slow response - I don't remember what the cafe press mug looked like but the printer we use now has a crappy selection of mugs in my opinion. Just basically what you see in the store in either 11oz or 15oz and black or white. |

I love it, but it holds tools right now and I would like one to drink from- it's 20 oz, I think. I guess I can get another mug for tools and use the one I have.  |

Hey Tommy. How do we request custom graphics? I imagine if it’s a simple wording change to an existing item I could just ask you to change the one word and you can do that? What if I have a drawing or graphic? What type and size of file would you need? Nothing particular in mind just now but sometimes I get ideas… 🤓

I struggle with graphics (I draw stick people badly) *but* I do have a lot of bought/downloaded art I've accumulated over the years. Lay it on me via PM and I'll let you know if its something I can pull off. |

All - just to elaborate I'm always looking for concise and clever slogans for shirts/hats/etc. so always feel free to send ideas my way.
