The T Shirt Lifecycle
We found this great t shirt information graphic over the weekend of the lifecycle of a t shirt, it made us smile. We thought it would be good to share with everyone here on the blog. The image is the lifecycle of a t shirt, starting when the t shirt is the best t shirt in your cupboard through to it becoming an undershirt and ending up as a duster.
An infographic or information graphic is a visual illustration of some data or knowledge, they seem to be very popular on the web at the moment.

Most of my clothes follow this flowchart! My Italia 1990 World Cup T Shirt and Shell suit fall into the Keeper category at the moment, but could quite easily be moved into archive or resell category as I run out of room in my cupboard.
We have a great range of t shirts in different styles and colours that are ideal for a wide range of uses, from promotion t shirts to special wicking t shirts.

This week we're pleased to announce that we have added 2 new t shirts for you to personalise – The Event T and the Nano by Stedman.
The Stedman Event T, code ST2000, is a Ring spun cotton t-shirt available in several basic colours – black, white, blue, green red, grey and yellow. It is a light weight t shirt at 155 gsm but because it is ring spun cotton it feels very soft and heavier than other t shirts at the same weight. This Stedman Event T is ideal for an event t shirt, get your logo, designs or names printed on the t shirt and promote your company where ever you are!
NANO Promotional Tby Stedman is grams in white and 145 grams in black. This is the only promotional t shirt that is available in ring spun cotton which gives a much softer feel to the fabric.
The Nano makes a perfect give away t shirt for promotion. Get your logo printed on the t shirt and it makes an perfect freebie for events, exhibitions and promotions.

Xsailing is great fun

Had a week in Anglesey and tried mini land yachting using a Xsail. This is a small three wheeled land yacht which is so easy to use and hits 40 mph on a good day. The beach at Rhosneigr is where all the kite surfers go. FKS Kitesurfing & Surfing school, Mojos Cafe in Rhosneigr is the place to go, ask for Alex. The Cafe does some mind blowing pancakes.
Must get them to buy some t shirts for the staff
