TigéOwners.com Merchandise

[Matt Garcia]

Members,

I would like to hear your comments and suggestions on TigéOwners.com merchandise. The merchandise would roughly include shirts, caps, stickers, skullies, cups and a few other items. Please take a moment to post your vote on the poll. -Thanks.

[Domsz06]

Bring it on. I'd love to wear it. When I bought my boat from the dealer they wanted to know how they could sell more boats, you know what my answer was? ADVERTISE!!! No one knows about tige's, least not here in Oklahoma. They are a great boat!!

[Domsz06]

if you do ball caps, do the new stretch fit, they are the best!!

[Matt Garcia]

Are you referring to the FlexFit brand ?

[Banks]

cant answer for him but flexfit is awesome

[Domsz06]

That is one of them, but there is another brand and.... well never mind, the brand I'm using is the same;)

[Paublo]

When I bought my '01, my dealer gave me a hat and the whole family T-shirts- which the whole family wore proudly. Then my wife ordered a demin shirt and a real nice pull over jacket with an embroidered Tige logo. Since then it seems that there has been very little available. Owners love their boats, are loyal and enjoy the merchandise.

[yllw20]

Need a visor or a ballcap. Besides noone can really see the 4 floaty keychains and the 3 silver ones. They are appreciated though. I have my hitch cover on the truck when the boat is not behind it. Working on applying the rear window sticker. Ball cap or visor would rock...short or long sleeve T would be cool too.

[Matt Garcia]

Thanks for the comments...keep them coming! For the ones that voted maybe, what particular style or design would you all like to see? Edgy, simple, etc?

[yllw20]

I would vote simple stuff w/the logo on the side of my boat 03i....would be cool to get some color options too....but, I am sure there will be people who are into more edgy things so the best would probably be some of both.

[Domsz06]

i like edgy. I had a team tige sticker for my yukon, but then when I bought a new truck, I can't put it on my new truck:( I wish I had a team tige sticker for my window, in white so it would fit:) Oh well. As for the merchandise I just looked at all my stretch fit hats and the brands are

NU FIT

Lengendary

Zephyr zfit (zhats.com

and another one I can't tell. I like the nufit and zhat the best!!!

I have a white team tige sticker. e-mail me you add and I send it to you.

[David]

Shirts and Flexfit style hats would be awesome. We have a Tige stickers on our car but Stickers, Hats, Hoodies, and Shirts would all be cool. As for style, I like something edgy.

Really? Awesome!!! I'm sending you a pm right now!!! I owe you.

How about towels?

[Banks]

good idea color coated options with that two so you can have towels that match your boat

[ichoop]

Visors and hats for sure, t-shirts also

[David Hudick]

WE NEED SOME TIGE GEAR!!!!!!!!

[Zacky]

Those foam can/bottle coolers. Those would be nice. It seems as though you can never have enough of those... Never mind. I just checked the site and you already have them...

I like the beach towel idea. You can never have enough of those either. Some nice hooded sweatshirts would be cool too. Slap a big Riders Edition or Limited logo on the back and you'd be set...

[Zacky]

Oh, forgot about beanies for those cold mornings...

[Ruune]

Zacky... check your dealer for the beer coolers- mine gave me some neoprene ones, plus a keychain and a receiver hitch plug that says "Tigé" on it. Pretty cool stuff. We're supposed to get shirts and stuff when we take delivery of our 22v in march.

[Banks]

yeah i just got my shirts last week their pretty cool says team tige' on them and has a big pic on the back

[Domsz06]

Banks,

You got shirts? so not fait. I got a key chain, and the trailer hitch cover and a couple team tige stickers for my truck. Oh well, I guess I'll just wait for the stuff to be made:) Then I'll buy some

[Porter]

I would purchase "Tige" merchandise, but would NOT be interested in "Tigeowners.com" merchandise.

[Matt Garcia]

Just wanted to let everyone know the poll is for TigéOwners.com merchandise and not Tigé merchandise. It seems as if some people think it is for Tigé merchandise.

[Caval]

Not alot of difference to me!

[Domsz06]

I'm in for whatever. Who cares if it's tigeowners, or tige, it all supports our boat!!

[blr]

Visors for sure, towells would be awesome as well. but hats and shirts should be a given (should be no questions there)

[Matt Garcia]

Thanks for the comments and suggestions. I have been doing some research and came up with some ideas, everything is still in the works though. If you had a choice between a dark color like black and blue or white which would you all prefer? Would you also pay a litte extra for a solid color?

[Caval]

Blue as in "Blue 2002 20V"!

[Domsz06]

dark is my choice;)

[jtk23]

Need an exclusive owners club like Team Mastercraft. You get all kinds of cool stuff with them.......Plus a wider array of shirts and other things.

[flackpack]

I saw a Nautique Towel on another site with the Team Nautique logo. I would like to see a Riders Edition Towel with the logo for Tige'.

[canadianparamedic]

Huge beach towels would be AWSOME!!:D

[Shana]

My husband and I have shirts, and we would buy more, we would love to have hats and anything that we could get our hands on, but mostly I would like to get my 7 year old daughter a shirt also. So please have some youth sizes!

[JANSEN]

RED AND GRAY HOODED SWEATSHIRTS

[TTUTige]

I love the Beach towel idea. I wouls buy a couple.

[ssrgeoff]

Since its Tigeowners.com merchandise why not a mouse pad? I think the hooded sweaters would be cool with TigeOwners.Com stretched across the front and the Riders Edition logo on the back. I am partial to Beer mugs and bottle openers as well. For the Starbucks crowd why not a coffee mug with a lid? Since everyone would like Beach Towels take it a step further and have a Beach Bag to put your towels and sunscreen in while you move your stuff from the house into the boat. Ideas keep rolling but I will stop now.:D

[blr]

if you do a beach towell/supply bag, could you make it water proof?

[Ruune]

yeah, but make sure they FLOAT!

[yllw20]

david,
Any word on when these ideas will become a reality of product on the shelf?

[Matt Garcia]

yllw20,
Not sure if you meant me or not. The T-shirts and Caps are already made and I am still in the process of acquiring the other products such as towels, decals, etc. Since I am a one man team I will probably start the gear section off with the shirts and caps and add on from their. I am looking around the middle of April for the gear to be implemented and ready to purchase online. I will keep everyone posted.

[yllw20]

my bad, I ment you matt.
Sounds great....will it be posted on this site or somewhere else?

[Matt Garcia]

No biggie...it will be posted under "Gear" on the navigation area.

[Brendan]

Matt,

I love Tige boats and my son has lots of Tige T shirts and visors which he wears proudly. I ordered one of the yellow coats that you had out a few years ago but I never got it ( it was ordered through the UK and if its available in fairness to Mike McCafferty or Ivor Hanna they will organise one for me). I have a Tige sweat which I wear all the time and I always wear my Tige T polo shirts when I go to the competitions cause they are sponsored by MC. I like to rub it in if you know what i mean :D

I printed off the details of the stuff you had on the Tige.com site but its not very clear. I gave it to my local dealer to enable him to order me some stuff. Can i therefore suggest no matter what you decide could you organise a nice bright brochure to illustrate the merchandise.

Regards,

Brendan

P.S. Am I too picky?

[havasu bound]

HOODIES, TOWELS, SHIRTS, HATS WOULD ALL BE AWESOME!!!
BTW, WHERE CAN I GET SOME STICKIES FOR THE WINDOWS OF MY CARS?

[joe8395]

I got some from Tige Watersports in Corona.

[ssrgeoff]

Matt,
Are you narrowing it down to what will become available first?

[Matt Garcia]

ssrgeoff, The T-Shirts are already purchased and ready. I am waiting on the caps to be ordered which should be in the next week or so. I will start off by selling the shirts and caps, shortly after visors and towels will be made. I ran into a little bit of a delay so hopefully I will have everything implemented by the end of this month or early May. I will keep everyone posted.

[Domsz06]

sounds good. Keep us posted.

Dom

[bakerds2121]

How about selling parts at deep discounts?

[Matt Garcia]

bakerds2121, that is way beyond the scope of tigeowners.com and I would not want to open that can of worms. :cool:

[djdc]

How about some long sleeve T shirts.

[TigeBrooks]

Matt,

The merchandise sounds great! Could you give us a glimpse of what the shirts and hats will look like? Are the hats going to have the elastic band? Will they have the cool logo of tigeowners?

Thanks,
Matt

[Matt Garcia]

Matt,

Here is a preview of the Shirts.

[Matt Garcia]

Yes the caps will have an elastic band, they will be Yupoong Flexfit.

[David]

Matt,

Those are awesome!!! When will they be available and how much? Looking forward to getting one!

-David

[Matt Garcia]

Thanks, prices are not set yet. They will be available in about 2-3 weeks.

[blr]

Sweet! nice work matt!

[Beau McCrory]

great stuff!

[Beau McCrory]

great stuff!

[forjar]

Matt,

I was wondering if you have thought about stickers?

[Matt Garcia]

Yep, they are already made. They are about 9 inches long and all white. They are basically the same as the above logo but without "the official team..." sentence.

[forjar]

Matt,

I was also wondering where you are at with the gear saw the great pics and I would like to get one of those lids.

[Matt Garcia]

I have been delayed a bit because of money issues. I am a one man team so it has taken longer than expected. The only thing left is the caps. Hopefully in a about 2 weeks. Sorry it has taken so long.

[forjar]

Anything I can do to help let me know

[my22footer]

Stuff looks good but I'd love to see that hat in Red with Silver Writing - I just had 4 dozen in various colors made for my co. and the dozen red were the fastest sellers - everyone owns a black cap but apparently solid red is rare.


keep up the good work.

Ian

[Beau McCrory]

when is the stuff going to hit the mainstream? PM me if you can give me any insider info or something.

[Beau McCrory]

ok,
i hit the post button a FEW times to many there, sorry!

[JANSEN]

Matt, is everything going to say owners.com on them? Or will you have stuff with just Tige on it?

[Matt Garcia]

For now the gear will have TigéOwners.com, but maybe in the future I will be able to produce Tigé specific gear. :cool:

[forjar]

Hey Matt,

Anyword on when the new gear is going to be out?

[Matt Garcia]

The order on the caps(last item left on the gear) have been placed and once I receive the shipment I will make the gear section live and ready for items to be purchased. I know I have said this in the past but this time it should definitely be about 1-2 weeks. :D

[forjar]

Sounds good. I just want you to know that your are doing a great job with the site.

I also just recieved a thank you letter from Tige for purchasing the new boat and in the letter they were promoting the site.

[Matt Garcia]

Thanks a lot! That is good to hear!

[Matt Garcia]

Ok everything is finally complete with the merchandise. The shirts were sent through production this past Friday and should arrive in 1-2 weeks. As soon as I get them the gear section will be operational. I also want to thank everyone for being patient.

Matt

[Flying Tiger]

All the Tige clothing we own it's hard to read the word Tige'.

It's either written in a script style that is illegible, too small, or too much scrambled eggs around the name that keeps it from looking unique or telling what it says..

My 18 year old daughter wears a size 00 slender, and would love some cool spagettii strap tanks in a girls type cut that say Tige' legibly.
Perhaps even embroidered.

Tige' girl

[David]

If you want a shirt that says Tige really big I have a suggestion. Buy special paper (forget what kind) from an Office supply store, go into paint, write tige as big as you can on 1 sheet of paper, print it out, and Iron it on smack in the middle of the shirt. Is it even legal with all the Copyright and Trademark stuff though so I wouldn't know?

[ssrgeoff]

David,
Are you sure about that? I have a glimpse for you.......

[David]

ssrgeoff, :D :D :D . LOL, Nice...

I would be proud to wear that shirt.
