Nope its still empty. Ill have to travel a little to pick them up this time around. New supplier, new shop, same guy and working on the same deal. Hopefully Ill have enough orders to impress his new employer into seeing how loyal his customers are and how much work I can give him. That will open new ideas and better prices for the collective.

Anyone have a good idea what size would fit best for a 6'1" ish guy around 215lbs average build? Looking to get one just on the side of comfortably loose (aka, not form-fitting but not tent status).

Go with the large then. Im 6'1, 225 and the Large fits me comfortably. The XL would be too big for you.

Awesome.

Now I'm still a little unclear what the difference is with the two-tone shirts aside from the placement of the name. Could you describe the pattern and look in a little more detail?

With that I'll probably in for two or three shirts altogether. :D

Ill try to locate a pic of it. Its probably the nicest looking shirt of them all. They were on major back order last time and thats why I couldn't offer them the first time around.

Until I married a cook I was 6'2" 260 + or - most of my adult life and I wore 2XLT. I would have recommended XLT at a min.

I only have a washed large shirt and it fits perfect. Neck , say 15-161/2, chest is about 42, sleeve is 10" (shoulder edge to elbow) waist is porprtional two chest and i do have a bit of a belly (about three month's pregnant if that helps). For me if the neck fits right on short sleeve shirts everything else falls in line. I'm 5' 71/2 at 185 lbs

Hope this helps...

Nothing extra tall, just tall, but they are so long in the back so I positive that the tall size will be perfect.

:drool:
It has the large logo on the back in dark grey font and Marauder on the sleeve because the color change comes in over the pocket and I couldn't put the name on the front.


Paul, do you have any additional photos of the mechanic shirts?

I'll see if I have any. Maybe some of the other members can post up the different colors they have.

I won't have a definite time frame until the order goes in. I wouldn't want to risk sending them to your hotel and they arrive when you aren't there. They may come quicker, or they may come later. Its all based on the how many the supplier has and how fast they can be printed up. Once I have them, I get them out either same day or the next business day.

What size/color are you looking for?

All you need is at least one in the color of your choice or get the rare two tone and get two colors with one payment. If you do a lot of car shows this is must have. You'll be the envy of the crowd.

UPDATE,

Today the shirts arrived and I already packaged them up to ship. Bad news is that some of the sizes that were on my order list weren't in the box and have to be re-ordered. :mad2:

I will contact the members that this will affect through PM.

Im truly sorry for the delay. My turn around time is usually a little over a month. This time the wait is unacceptable. I had a huge argument with my printer over the phone during the week about time frame and ordering issues on his end. That's why I was able to get them by today. Tomorrow 98% of the orders will be mailed. 2 shirts have design issues so they are going to be taken care of on Monday then sent out and then I have to wait til the missing sizes arrive.
Once again Im very sorry for the delay, I had to use a new supplier and my printer is working in a different shop so Im not able to constantly stay on him like I did when he was next door.
I hope to never have these issues again with future items I will offer.

UPDATE,

Today the shirts arrived and I already packaged them up to ship. Bad news is that some of the sizes that were on my order list weren't in the box and have to be re-ordered. :mad2:

I will contact the members that this will affect through PM.

Im truly sorry for the delay. My turn around time is usually a little over a month. This time the wait is unacceptable. I had a huge argument with my printer over the phone during the week about time frame and ordering issues on his end. That's why I was able to get them by today. Tomorrow 98% of the orders will be mailed. 2 shirts have design issues so they are going to be taken care of on Monday then sent out and then I have to wait til the missing sizes arrive.
Once again Im very sorry for the delay, I had to use a new supplier and my printer is working in a different shop so Im not able to constantly stay on him like I did when he was next door.
I hope to never have these issues again with future items I will offer. **** happens man, it cool that you make this runs. Would the be here by x-mas?

Dickies puts the "Dick" in their name by not releasing info to embroiders who are not Dickies distributors. You have to sell 300 shirts a year to become a distributor. Unfortunately Ill have to play the waiting game. This happened last time with 2 tone shirts in XL and it took almost 3 months to get them. That was why they were never offered in the previous shirt runs. If you guys don't wanna wait, Ill cancel the orders for the 2tone and go with solid colors. They are easier to get.

The order went in already and I should have them within a week or two. They will then be immediately printed and sent right out.

Its not the supplier that was my headache, its Dickies themselves. They have this "we'll make them when we want and we'll send them when we want" attitude. This is too long to wait for a item. Im glad they are short sleeve because they will be arriving in time for the nice weather. :mad2:

I have a embroider I use that orders them and prints them for me. His supplier was having a hard time getting the shirts so I went ahead and went to a outside supplier for the items and Dickies themselves are having a national back order on 2XL in two tone. If everyone was a XL or smaller, I would have them all sent out on time already.
THis was why I never offered the 2 tone in the other 2 runs. They are the most popular of the mechanic shirts and seem to be the slowest to reproduce.

No problem big man,
I've seen this happen on other forums, A lot of promises,
but no action from the manufacture.
If the manufacturing is being done in China then most times you take
your chances with small orders. It is just not a priority. Sorry to hear

Hi Russell, I did 3 runs of these shirts over the last two years and the first two runs went off without a hitch. This third run has been a nightmare with trying to get inventory from Dickies. I started this back in October and I still have not filled everyones order. The remaining shirts that finally arrived were ordered back in November and just arrived yesterday. I'm sorry, but I will not be doing another run on these anymore due to the wait to receive the item. A second run of hats will be attempted later in the year and custom designed T-shirts will be out around June for Carlisle.

Unless a member puts one up for sale anytime soon, these will be collectors items.

Not happening anytime soon. I got screwed by Dickies by having to wait a long time to receive my order that I had to pay a outside vendor to complete my order. I did 3 runs of them and my last run was a failure so I'd rather not attempt another ordeal.
