The most stupid thing about the t-shirts with the switch, is that you have to know what it is to appreciate it. Plus, wearing that t-shirt in a non-nerd situation is pretty improbable.

I wear mostly t-shirts with motifs from tech and pop culture, but I don't wear t-shirts with hashtags. That is where I draw the line.

I would replace the text with just an image of the switch mechanism Decasman (sp?) made. One for each color. With his authorisation of course.

Yeah, but I think if they did away with the hash tag you might could get away with an mx brown or black shirt. But I don't have either of those so I don't know why I would. What a dilemma.
Title: Re: CHERRY MX T-shirt
Post by: Daniel Beardsmore on Wed, 04 March 2015, 17:35:05
I was thinking more of the colour's hazardous nature. The switch could do with being better drawn, though.

It's just a buckling spring, of course, but it did occur to me that someone might see it and start thinking that way. (I suppose that could go with the "Cherry" theme...)

I believe it's inspired by the Green Lantern logo:

A medium, but I'm generally a smedium.

If its more of a european cut, I should be okay, but if its a typical american medium, then its not for me.

It's definitely a european cut so you should be fine. i'm a med-large and the large fits me well. (i'm probably a L but i like to think i'm a med.....)

What? My point is that the picture on the shirt is too big. In my opinion, in the picture that OP posted the switch is too big and it's positioned too high up on the shirt.

What is your point?

I thought you were criticizing the style (cut) of the shirt. It occurred to me that, as much as we love KBs and switches and stuff, we're probably won't impress anyone with our keen fashion sense by going around in Cherry MX shirts, no matter how well-styled they are.  :?)

So, are you actually saying the switches on the shirts shown here seem bigger than the switches on the actual shirts? Or that the switches seem too big in general? If the latter, while I agree they're much bigger than real-life switches, some artistic license seems in order. Otherwise people will be walking up to us and peering at our chests to try to discern the meaning. (Of the shirts, I mean, not our chests.)

Well I don't know if OP got one a size too big for him, but it looks as if the transfer is oversized. The cut of the t-shirt is neither here nor there, I'm saying the transfer in the picture of OP wearing it looks bigger than it showed on the mock-up. But like I said, it may just be that the transfer scales with the t-shirt, and OP has got a shirt that is too big for him.

Ah, you're entirely right! For some reason I'd missed the first post. Yes, quite a difference indeed. I'm guessing the product graphics were the original designs, and there was some size-ratio "drift" when the shirts were made. It can happen if people aren't paying attention.
