Recently Steve Stalcup aka Vorian ordered some polo shirts from the German LoCo Team. They were of good quality, and had the Ubuntu Logo embroidered on them. I don’t know what he paid for them, but I know he had to wait 3 months for them, and pay shipping. This got me to thinking, why don’t we get something going for the US? So I started looking around at web sites that specialized in corporate goods with logos. There are a lot! But how do you tell the quality of the merchandise, and the reputation of the supplier? The answer is, you can’t.
Now, I’ve been ordering from places like Land’s End for years, and the quality of goods is excellent, the company is sound and stands behind their product. So, I took a look at their web site, and they have corporate logo stores you can set up. No minimum order, a one time set up fee of $95, and a great selection of items for all. Tshirts, polos, throws, attaches, outerwear, dress shirts, etc. Almost anything you could want to display the Ubuntu logo on to advocate and show your pride in the Ubuntu Operating System.
I’m am going to set up a poll on the US Teams Project Forum page. The link is below. Please go there and vote on whether or not you are interested in supporting this idea. I am also including the link to the Land’s End corporate sales web site so that you can look at all the items you could get with an Ubuntu logo embroidered on it.
