MuleT-Shirts--the story
I've always been a "T-Shirt" guy. Its all I wear. Probably as far back as 1968, I've been a fan of cool T-shirts. Ones with a bitchin' logo and printed on a quality shirt.
The kind that last forever! I have a huge collection and always mentally critique shirts I see in stores, on the web or on a person. There are some businesses that always have the classiest shirts.I've had a few batches of shirts made in the past, but was never really satisfied with the artwork or if they did have good artwork, the quality of the shirts wasn't up to the standards of what I'd want the MULE name attached to.
Now, I have the artwork AND the highest quality shirts available. But there's a catch.
Each design of shirt will be printed in a limited run. Why?Because I get sick of looking at the same thing over and over and want to keep the fresh ideas flowing all the time. The batches will sell out pretty quick and then won't be reproduced. On to the next design. That said, the next two designs are in the development stages as we speak. Each design will have some significance, which I'll explain as they're released.
Shirt number one is significant for a few reasons. First, it represents the logo/paintscheme on a bike I built to sponsor an up-and-coming racer, Robert Miller, National number 68. A few years back, he got a third on the Springfield Mile and in the next race at Portland, Ore., a rider went down right in front of him on the straightaway of a fast half-mile. Robert, unable to avoid the fallen rider was badly injured and totalled the bike. It ended his racing career but led to him setting up a successful realtionship/business with Arai helmets.
Next is the design itself which is the logo on the title page of the website. This includes 3 horizontal stripes which are the traditional indicator of speed or "Streamlined" from the Art Deco, 30's design period. These stripes were found on automobiles, areoplanes, bicycles, electrical appliances or anything you could imagine from the 30's. A classic look I've always liked.
Lastly, it's simple and is the design I like the most. It makes for a classy shirt that'll be a conversation starter and all around "Chick-Magnet".
You won't see any shirts from Mule with skulls, daggers, the grim reaper, explosions, monsters, simulated tatoos, rat-bikes or other fad-related designs. There are plenty of those on the market already. Just cool stuff related to motorcycles and competition.
Simple is best. Enjoy!
