Great news : I have been able to drop my costs in making shirts. Also, the Aussie Dollar is doing very well against the US dollar.
This, plus my decision to drop my discount program, means that I will soon be able to pass on lower prices to my customers in the form of a 25% drop.
That’s quite substantial in any man’s books.
Just as a comparison, in Australia a normal tailored shirt will sell for $200. Mine will be priced at $75. The difference in fabric is minor - mine are 80s vs. the 100s of the $200 shirts.

speaking of the maradone v pele debate we were having last night (sorry i know its totally unrelated to the topic but what the heck) i was watching a video of johann cruyff today at uni… he’s as good if not better than the two aforementioned players before… some of the things he could do with the ball, phew. the only reason why he’s not mentioned in the same breath as pele and diego is because he never won a World Cup, unfortunately.
but damn he was good.

Mark, 80×80 thread count, the higher it is the better the fabric.
Tim, email sent! I’m interested to see some videos.
