AI Thread Summary
The PF Store has officially opened with a selection of dark fitted shirts and one loose regular fit white shirt, all offered at zero markup. Customers are advised to check sizing descriptions, as fitted shirts may require sizing up for those accustomed to regular fit. The store will continue to expand its inventory over the coming weeks, and buyers are encouraged to share photos of their purchases for a chance to earn a Gold Membership. Discussions also highlight the potential for increased visibility and interest in Physics Forums through wearing the merchandise, with several members sharing positive experiences from wearing their shirts in public. Overall, the store aims to promote the community while keeping prices as low as possible.

The store is open! I only have a few designs up right now and mostly dark shirts. When I get more designs and inventory up I'll make a grand opening. Note most of the shirts I have up now are fitted. If you are used to regular fit US sizes and like them lose, I'd think about sizing up. There is one white shirt that is loose regular fit. Just make sure you read the descriptions and sizing info.

I should continue to add items and designs through the next couple weeks. I'll update here.

All items have zero markup.

Glad you added it to the shirts! :smile:

Ordered a fitted T-shirt in "sunshine" color. Thanks Greg!
 
:frown: I wanted a fish hoodie.

What is that? :)
I think a member had created a t-shirt that had the world famous "PF initiation fish" on it. It was a couple of years ago. :-p

I guess I can add my own fish.

What about a T-shirt that says "Physics Forums" and then have a picture of a cracked pot with a slash across it like "Ghostbusters"?

Zz.

That ain't no light bulb thing. That's a Mr. Fusion reactor. I'd recognize it anywhere.

I ordered a shirt. Don't tell my wife that I used her card to get a shirt that has my mistress's images (i.e., Physics Formus') image on it.

Going to get a T-Shirt for the summer. I'll want to get a hoodie next fall, so am I correct in assuming that these will be available for the foreseeable future?

My daughter (who has a day off school) just called me at work to tell me that my shirt has arrived. I didn't tell my wife that I ordered it, and my daughter said that when my wife saw her name on the the unopened package, she said "What the heck?!"

Wouldn't it be better to have some markup, so that the store generates revenue to maintain PhysicsForums?

My wife brought home two jugs of Oak Pond Brewing ales this afternoon. One of White Fox ale and another of Nut Brown ale.

And me with no PF beer mug! So sad! Zathras can have nothing nice!

It's already fairly expensive, however they are quality shirts. I'd rather more people wear them than making anything off it.

I thought the same thing at first but this afternoon when I wore my PF shirt to do some shopping, it got lots of looks. I was in the check out lane at Wal-Mart buying a "deep-fat fryer" for some of my mushrooms when a gentleman in a wheel chair being pushed by his wife (?) asked "is Physicsforums.com a real site". I had the time to give him a little history, PFs goals and explained how well moderated the forum is. Being that this is a University town, I wasn't surprised when he said he was interested in this and would be checking us out. After this, I stopped by Famous Dave's for a sandwich to go and while having a beer talked to three female University students working there who were curious as well. So now I realize that that dollar will pay off many times over; as long as we wear our shirts.

Awesome story dlgoff! I've been wearing mine a couple times a week because it actually fits and feels great! Twice out shopping the cash person has commented on it!

A couple of days ago, I got up in the morning and pulled on my PF "Thwack" shirt. I was also wearing an old pair of GAP boxers (yellow, with green tree-frogs) and a pair of fleece-lined moose-hide slippers. Maine chic.

My wife liked the shirt/boxer combination and didn't even mention my slippers! Da Noive!

Very cool, dlgoff. We need a few million more of those in our schools and maybe their'd be some hope for a future.
