Freezing Saddles logo / branding idea

[KLizotte]

I think your idea is AWESOME! Unfortunately I don’t have the illustration skills (never advanced much beyond stick figures) to help.

I’ll try to snap a pic or two sometime this week. Mine sort of fell apart but the main design is still clear.

You should hire Ms. Dickie.

What, my original creation wasn’t good enough!?

[hozn]

I had missed that on the original thread! That is pretty awesome!

But it’s kinda busy for a jersey logo.

Does Assos do special orders for graphics on their winter jackets, or would that detract from their styling?

[hozn]

Yeah, and it probably steps on some copyright toes — not sure if that would be a big deal or not, but probably best to avoid that question. So, yeah, idea still stands to work on new branding.

Dunno about Assos on winter jackets. I imagine we could find some winter jacket that would support custom branding, though the cost may prohibit people from signing on to that idea. I agree it makes more sense. OTOH, the “marketing” effect for the competition may be greater in summer (when it’s light out) so summer jerseys for a winter competition may not be the worst idea.

Yes, a thousand times yes. I would kick in part of her fee, assuming it is within our collective means or she would discount for us great people.

There are probably only three on this forum that can fit into anything Assos. I’m thinking Sugio, they’re Canadian, so they can do chubby, which I desperately need.

Fun fact: Instead of “extra large” Assos uses the term T.I.R. for it’s largest size of clothing. T.I.R. stands for “Transport Internationaux Routiers” and is a designation for large shipping trucks in Europe which was implemented to reduce inspection time at border crossings.

Which by Assos sizing means about the size of Yugo, still not big enough.

At least you don’t have an extra six inches of sleeve.

Better late than never. I keep this stashed away at work – sorry it took me so long.
