I’ll definitely get one of these! I don’t like the advertisement one though, I wouldn’t go around wearing an advert on my shirt. The one labeled “Hands 2″ is definitely my favourite from the ones you have up here!

Could these be available in a background colour that’s not white though? White shirts get dirty so quickly and lots of people don’t really like them anyway – myself included. If you have to pick just a single colour, I’d think a marle grey or black background would be the best, but if you’re taking pre-orders then hopefully we could have more choice.

Have you thought of making these permanantly available through an online outlet such as Zazzle.com or CafePress.com? This would let people choose from heaps of sizes, colours, and styles, although it limits the area you can print on so you wouldn’t be able to do the all-over effects you have in the “hands” shirts.
Keep up the good work!

Hey Ricky, thanks for the feedback.

Background color – the Ripple brand is blue on white so we are definitely leaning towards a white background unfortunately. Hey, you might have to wash it occassionally!

We have considered using sites such as Cafepress – it might be an option we look at, but we were looking at selling direct, although the inventory issue is definitely a problem – we just don’t have the money to print off hundreds of tee’s in different sizes and colors.

We would also make a better return selling direct, but we would have to do all inventory and fulfilment – we’re still working out the details ;)

At this stage we’re just looking to get some feedback on which designs people like the most, then we will probably do a run of the most popular.

Will check out Zazzle though – thanks for the tip!

I like 1. and 4. The hands ones annoy me, sorry. Maybe if you had one hand…

I like #4 except I would prefer all of the causes to be on there not just one.

I like number 4 as well, and agree with the above comment that they should all be on it, maybe in a line across the chest? Love the idea though, and a great way to continue spreading the message!

Keep up the good work guys, I love your site and use it as my home page and search engine and tell everyone about it!

2 ans 3 are great. The pattern is cool and totally is an eye catcher. Just having ripple.org on the back is great because people are bound to ask what it is… and the hands make it ambiguous but obviously something to do with the internet.. conversation starter for sure, 2 & 3

Haha when someone says, “Cool shirt!” I could say, “Yeah, get behind it!”

I dont think I’d ever wear the advertisment one but its an intresting idea. Design 2 is too crowded I think. #3 is alright but i’d say my favorite is design 4. Other people said have all the causes. that would be good. Also there could be a differnt shirt for each one.
PS ripple is awesome. I CAN click and donate more than once, right? It isn’t a once-a-day deal or anything?

Thanks for the feedback Anne! Once a day is the recommended clicking frequency!
