    Anyone else notice that the model name was changed from Kanabo to Katana on the last 2 pics?

    Yup, I had already christened the stealth version by that name :D.

    But I don't know where you are getting an orange version from all of the time? There never was one ;)

    Anyone know any game shirt manufacturers in the Pacific Rim? I don't think anyone really wants to pay $70 for these locally produced......

    The front designs and color combinations look excellent. But isnt the font on the back a bit oversized?

    Nice shirts. I like the Black-Orange combo....a classic.

    Maybe some other slogans to use on the back...

    GTFO

    BAD
    minton
    ROCKS

    F
    U


    I can get a discount for all these cool ideas right ;)

    I really like the shirt colors and the front design, not entirely sure about the back.

    A slogan my high school team used a couple of years back for their t-shirt was "Mad for Bad"

    I think the racket and the label looks great, the t-shirt is fine but I definitely will not pay $70 for a shirt. I hope you have a lot of business experience and can handle the money side of things well, you seem to be getting very serious turning is into a side business or a full one. My advice is not to offer too many price discounts as subsequent buyers will think it is unfair. After all a good racket should fetch a decent price.

    I am near Toronto and if anyone is thinking about a group buy, please consider adding me on. Thanx

    Hey, thanks for the advise!

    Early adopters and group buyers will definitely either get discounts or freebees though. I'm not a marketing guy, but I do know that early-adopters lead, and the rest follow, so supporting those that get behind you in the early days is super important.

    I actually think it's not fair to NOT support those that have the guts to get behind a new venture. :)

    *THIS JUST IN*

    Samples from Manufacturer #2 are being made right now and I'll have them in 14 days or so.

    Anyone selling a cheap 12-racket gear bag? :eek:

    well, the only logical step from here is:

    Don't get too excited! Still a long way to go before any White Label rackets will be available for sale. I have to change my mind about the colour and design at least another dozen times ;)
