Hey DMF -- I recently made a few custom embroidered workshirts for personal use and wanted to extend the offer to anyone here interested in sporting their very own while working on their bikes, riding or at a local DOC meetup. These are all 100% workshirts from Dickies, custom designed and machine embroidered by me. This is just a little hobby of mine that I decided to merge with my passion for riding Ducks...PM me if you're interested in one and I can quote you the time & materials cost, depending on what you want done. The sky is the limit in terms of what you can get stitched -- for example, on the front chest I have my name and a neat Ducati Meccanica logotype with the classic Italian colors! Be the envy of your local DOC with your one of a kind personalized workshirt.
Here are a few pix of what I've done for myself:

A lot of interest from you guys, which is awesome. I want to let you know that I am taking orders today (Friday) for supplies and can make + send these out by Saturday, which means they'll be in your hands next week. Just let me know!
I like it. The eagle is my fav. I also like the classic (70's I think) two-bold-like logo too.
Can we get an price range?

Hate to be a buzzkill, but if it's not licensed you may be in for a surprise if you sell them at any profit.
Anyone know why they used an eagle (it is an eagle, right?) back then?
Pending working out of the details, I'm down for one or more.

Are you gonna start that shit again?!
;D
This is definitely for personal use only! I am doing this is as an enthusiast, so it's not going on sale at Walmart anytime soon (or anywhere else for that matter).
If you're really interested, PM me with what you'd like and I can give more details.

Don't know if it's indeed an eagle, but it's one of my favorite vintage designs. It could be an Italian falcon?

Interested; PM'd!
Depending on price, I'd take one of the eagle logo shirts
also down for an eagle, but would take the other as well depending on price.

If you sell them it's no longer personal use.
I'm in. I'll take the turkey one...waiting on price.
I missed out on a 1-time-run shirt several years back, and I'll be damned if it's happening again! [laugh]
PM sent. I'm in for an eagle.
Well Hell yea.
PM sent.

can someone confirm the price? if it's that price stated above I'm out also.
Its what I was quoted as well.
Id love to but its too much for me to spend on a shirt right now.
yea, those seem like they are Ducati prices... but I have no idea how much embrodery work costs. $50 on top of a $20 Dickies shirt seems like a lot considering there are no royalties being paid.
Its a cool shirt, but not $70 cool.
