    Wow. What a line.

    Nine T-Shirts, some hats and a few bags. Why bother? At least they could have done a hoody or something. And the logos on teh T-Shirts are a tad small aren't they?

    Is that it???

    Why is it on a Fusion hat, the Kappa logo is the biggest one? The same with the bag.

    I don't know what I was expecting, but this surley isn't it.

    Let me guess, not available in stores?? Internet orders only?

    The link was posted by Webmaster on the Fusion forums... so I believe that this is it for the line.

    Perhaps they will add more stuff in the future? Hopefully. I wouldn't mind skating around in an EGr Hoody.

    Saying that, hoodies arn't really Kappa-Slappa gear, plus added to the fact that the game and thusly the gear will be pushed towards the trendy/clubber scene whereas hoodies are more alternative.

    Unless you can buy a Fruit of the Loom hoodie and somehow transfer the logo onto it (like the £5 merchandise outside gigs) I think you're out of luck

    I tried that transfering of logos. You can buy that iron on stuff and print a bunch of logos on it... but you have to treat it or the iron on logo will come off.

    I ruined a nice Rollersnakes T-Shirt by doing that.

    iron on print papers arent very good. I think Ive printed 4 of those, the print is hardly visable after 2 washes.

    The kappa gear is a bit thin, but Im going to buy one Clone t-shirt to me and my brother,or... maybe that Feisar

    Man, that is just utter garbage. What a wasted chance. I for one will be buying a FOTL shirt and doing a little screenprinting practice for my EG-r shirt.

    My Uncle in France has a couple of those Embroidering machines... I might ask him to run off ten T-Shirts or Hoodys for me with various Fusion Graphics...

    Might not look as clean as the printed shirts, but at least it will last.

    Wow, that is disappointing. Some of the shirts are pretty cool, like the xios and the track layout designs. I imagine they're about as thick as two sheets of air, though. I never knew that logo was for Kappa. It looks like it belongs on the mudflap of a truck. What kind of people does this company cater to? They sure seem awfully proud of that logo.

    BTW their website is ****. Some nice hi-res images of the designs would have been, well... common sense.

    that's it? i suppose that they're going to tell us that it's artfully understated! to hell with that cheap [to them, not us] approach. i want to see some BIG logos!

    AmishRobot: Cover up the heads of the Kappa logo and it looks like a woman spreading her legs.. :razz:

    Lance: Those logos really ought to be at least 4 times bigger.

    hehe - so i see ya all reflecting my thoughts...

    this "merchandize" by k(r)appa is very low - the logos are v.small and the product range itself is far too small. for this disappointing stuff i think its too expensive.

    i say we storm their factory, make some decent stuff (including hoodies), steal all their sandwiches and paint rude things on all the kappa logos we can find.

    actually, looking at the shirts (in as much as you can look at them, well said amishrobot, their site is lame) some of them are ok, and i dare say i'll be purchasing one. they just aren't what i expected.

    actually, scratch that. the biggest t-shirts come in XL, and according to their "search your size" feature, i'm an XXXL :

    maybe i'll buy one and use it as a wristband!
