I would personally like to have Predator camo as the pattern or just the plain old military style, black, green and brown. All that Mossy Oak, Realtree, ShadowCrap, looks like solid black from a distance. Any other opinions on camo pattern?

I like the first orange design on the front and the big, bold orange design on the back. I think that would look awsome. I want the back to be clear, so everyone knows exactly what it says. My name is Mark, and I'm a huntaholic. :twocents:THANK YOU
Post by: backwoods_boy on December 22, 2009, 06:23:55 PM
I'd have to say I like the white lettering the best. The orange lettering isn't bad either. I don'y really care for the large orange on the back though.......kinda overtakes the camo effect. Just my :twocents: Nice work backwoods. I would buy one of the two I mentioned....but probobly not the black lettering (to hard to read) and not the large orange on the back (to much orange with the camo). Just my opinion......hope it helps.Thank you !

Post by: Dipsnort on December 23, 2009, 08:49:34 AM
IF people wanted to use these to hunt in I would suggest the black as it blends with the camo better. You should be ablr to read it still but, it is hard to tall from a generated pic. :twocents:Regardless of the colors it's not suitable as hunting attire in my book because it's a 50/50 cotton, poly blend. For me hunting clothing should not contain any cotton. :twocents:

I'm not saying that hoodie couldn't be part of a normal wardrobe. Certainly it could.
Hey, I have an idea for you. On the back of the hoodie you should put "Cotton kills, prepare to die!". I'd buy that for sure! :chuckle:

One note though, Could you change the white on black color scheme on your website to something less harsh to read, when I come across a site with a black background and white lettering I just turn it right back off, my eyes just can't handle it !!! :twocents:
Good Luck with your business !!!

I really need these to sell...
Since they are mossy oak and great quality i had to raise the cost of these a little but you wont be able to get these anywhere else...
Post by: huntnphool on December 28, 2009, 03:08:42 PM
Are these going to be printed or embroidered? Are they available without a hood, maybe a 1/4 zip? Embroidered on a 1/4 zip and I would buy one.
Post by: backwoods_boy on December 28, 2009, 03:18:58 PM
i made some adjustments to the rack...i think ill go with this....

nah i think its just right

Oh yeah I see what you mean, I was talking about that GOB of horn is kinda much !! Just my opinion though !!! ;)
Post by: backwoods_boy on December 28, 2009, 03:25:37 PM
thats my logo and thats what im stickin with :-)
the whole sale blank cost of the mossy oak hoodie is much more than a regular solid color one so i had to raise the price a little.
i hope its still affordable. I mean they are one of a kind i guess.

oh sorry...i was confused..i got you confused with another member who said they didnt like the GOB of antlers...however...i cant afford to add another color to the design. that would put the hoodie at over 50$ and im trying to keep it under that for everyone.QuoteI like em big and burley...

Post by: backwoods_boy on December 31, 2009, 08:53:16 AM
The HUNTAHOLIC Mossy Oak Camo hoodie is set to go on sale....
I am not sure on exact price yet, but they will be a little more expensive than the Blaze or Black because of the Mossy Oak Camo and the quality of the hoodie itself.
Sport-Wick technology transforms anti-static fleece into an excellent warm-up and cool down option while the Mossy Oak pattern helps keep you undercover. Now your top layer releases moisture from inner layers, so your skin is comfortably dry. Lightweight 8-ounce, 100% polyester. Open cuffs and hem. Dyed-to-match drawcord. Kangaroo pouch pocket. Double-lined hood.
Stay tuned and check back often.

Thanks again!

i know it might seem a little expensive but these are one of a kind MOSSY OAK CAMO Hoodies.
The Mossy oak hoodies alone are double the cost of the black and blaze hoodies that I have already printed.
so we will see.
I hope that 50-55 is not too much for a limited edition quality mossy oak Huntaholics hoodie.
I will also mention that the quality of these is excellent....

I own a clothing company, and wanted to see where I could help you out, but unfortunately I cannot print on dark garments like you have going now. If you ever need light garments, white or grey tees done, let me know. I am sure we can beat any screenprinter on pricing for you.
Congrats and good luck with the venture.

Im a pretty big guy and have long arms also and a XX fits much better than the XL.

1 notched wolf tag in the state of Idaho - implies that it was done within the guidelines of the law. It is your messaging - just depends on what message you want to market for.
Post by: backwoods_boy on January 05, 2010, 09:50:16 AM
Im not implying to have people just go at random and shoot wolves.

Same picture with Stop on top Illegal Imigration on the bottom.
A second one a cartoon picture of a Border Patrol Officer escorting a wolf wearing a Maple Leaf Shirt. Same message. or Protect our Borders as a message.
Just a couple idea's and I very much like your shirt. I'll by one depending on the size of my next paycheck.

Are you making your own screens in house? If so, the possibilities are endless and very little cost to experiment with what sells. If you need some advice on how to inexpensively make screens in house, I will be glad to offer details how I did it at minimal cost, after i get through with hunting this season.
Laser, don't know who you are, and maybe I missed something in this thread, but I had not seen that the shirts were to be worn in Washington only. Since backwoods talked about wolf tags in his design I assumed it was indicative of legal hunting practices. :twocents:

backwoods everyone will have a hundred ideas, just go with what you think will sell and make a few, put them up for sale and see what sells the best. I had a blast doing shirts and caps and would still be doing it if I wasn't hunting. I gave all my equipment to my sister-in-law who is doing a good business.

Just a thought, Backwoods. Would people prefer your logo on the front of the shirt over the left breast and the larger image on the back? I just think the small logo is out of place on the back of the shirt. :twocents:

shirts normally have smaller logos on the front than the back if you are putting something on both sides.... :dunno:
I wouldn't worry about pushing the envelope a little with your designs, that is what sells the best. People buy somethiong that says what they are feeling.
Right now if I was still makling shirts and caps, I would be doing some wolf designs. :twocents:

You could post your designs and have people send orders with credit card info on the condition that when you get enough orders then you will print, charge their card, and send the shirts....just a possible thought.
I would keep the wolf shirts non-state-specific because i think you could sell them right here in WA. :twocents:

You could be on to something really big here. Have you thought about doing a IDAHO chapter huntaholics? (Or other states as well) Im' sure the wolf one would sell hands over fist there. And just my opinion.......I think dipsnort has a very good point in the large decal on the back and your smaller emblem on the front. My Mother and Father used to own a jeans and T-shirt business and did shirts all different ways. There seemed to be a reason most shirts went in that direction. Again that is just my :twocents:, I think your designs are great and will do well.
way ahead of you too..
im starting this thing in washington to see how it goes.
i hope to make it nation wide with different chapter etc. but i still have a full time job and for now Im going to keep it low key.

Simple and in your face.
It will be embroidered and one size fits all adjustable hat.
i might have the text "HUNTAHOLICS" on the back or the side of the hat as well, but for now here it is.

i can do any custom order for 12...
Post by: backwoods_boy on January 06, 2010, 05:57:32 PM
Just thought I'd throw this out there for you backwoods. I like how you have huntaholics on the side how about washington on the other side? That way when you go to doing other states you can just change it to be state or chapter specific. just a thought.yeah if it fits in the budget definitely

u gonna make them with velcro in the back? that is how i prefer them. just my opinion.
I hate the velcro. It sticks to my polar fleece and it noisy.

i got a good number of orders for orange and black and i have printed both of them....
the mossy oak i just put on sale on monday and hope to print by the end of next week.

:dunno: :hello: :)

I would suggest this though if you want this to work and you really want to make money doing it. I realize you have a "real" job too but you are going to need to work harder at this to make it a legitimate business. Don't limit yourself to one item at a time. Don't market only to Washington hunters. We all know you are on Facebook and other networking and hunting sites. Take that hat design, put "Huntaholics" on the bottom of the back of the hat in a color matching the front logo and sell as many as you can. The more you sell, the better discounts you get on the product, the more money you make. You need to bite the bullet and order 25-50 hats and sell and deliver right away. As you sell, place another bigger order and continue selling. Strike while the iron is hot. Anyone could snatch your idea away from you unless you have copyrights in place so don't dabble too long. Also, I know you like the orange logo and black and orange combo but I don't think it is the most popular choice of consumers so you might not want to push that too hard when your market audience isn't buying it. Good luck
Post by: backwoods_boy on January 07, 2010, 10:28:49 AM
I have been following your endeavor all along (how could one avoid it with the constant barrage of new posts :chuckle:). Thought I would give you my feedback and :twocents:. The logo with the crosshairs is too over the top for my taste. Now I really think you are onto something with the more simple skull only design on the hats. In a flex fit hat, I may buy one just for kicks and to support your new business.

Thanks for the words of encouragement.
Taking huntaholics out of Washington is a future thing and will be done when money and time permit.
I dont have the time or the money right now to do it.
The copyright and the license will be in place so the idea wont be stolen.
I am still playing on what ideas "I" like and want to put out there and when.
This started out as a tiny idea and has grown a little each day and each product I put out there, but the fact of the matter is im trying to create a good marketing plan right now.
Hunt-wa, facebook, myspace etc are only getting me enough sales to break even.
These things take time and I am not in any hurry to push anything.
Im sure when i am a little more comfortable you will see me at the sportsmen shows and the shot shows, but for now its not about making money Im doing it for fun, and to learn the business and the market............FOR NOW...and if i make a few bucks than cool.
Thanks again for the input.

My honest (and positive) comments are that I didn't much care for the logo with the crosshairs and solid 'scope view' around the skull but taking that off like the logo on the hat is a true winner. I like it more and more every time I come back to look at it. The first version just isn't having the same effect on me. I realize it is just my opinion and everbody has one. The plain skull just fits in with hunting and the "stealth" aspect better than the solid background. I really like the skull only look a lot.

It sounds like you are going with the skull only with Huntaholic (or Huntaholics?) on the back or side. Good move.

:yeah:
I like the skull only on the front and with a flex fit hat the "huntaholics" can go on the back........I'll take 3.
Post by: backwoods_boy on January 08, 2010, 06:54:19 AM
Maybe make the skull have be a little darker, then i'd buy a couple of them, 1 to wear around town, 1 for hunting, and 1 incase i ruin one of the others. haha
:dunno:
explain please.
thanks everyone for your :twocents:

Post by: Dipsnort on January 08, 2010, 08:24:07 AM
I share his opinion on the skull. Now that you have some good camo items that are useful for hunting the white skull detracts from the camo effect and if I were in the market for these items the bright white would prevent me from making the purchase.Maybe make the skull have be a little darker, then i'd buy a couple of them, 1 to wear around town, 1 for hunting, and 1 incase i ruin one of the others. haha

explain please.

Post by: backwoods_boy on January 08, 2010, 09:43:03 AM
but the point of these items is to get Huntaholics out there, not to hide it by making it dark and not easliy seen.
thanks for the input but i think ill stay with the white skull for now.
I will make the final decision when it comes time to print.
Post by: backwoods_boy on January 08, 2010, 09:51:54 AM

Post by: Hillbilly270 on January 22, 2010, 02:18:54 PM
I like the deer and elk logos you got going on. I like the tan/khaki color and I think the skull only without crosshairs on the back of a flex hat with huntaholic on the front.
