More importantly, it needs to be able to hide the average stain from red dirt, and the 'odd' occasion that you miss your mouth and your drink or food spills onto your jacket.

Because we come from various parts of Australia, the inner lining needs to be able to be unzipped and converted to a vest. There will be times when a jacket becomes too hot, but a vest will be perfect to keep us toasty and promote the club.

As most of us have a 'home base' 4wd club, I suggest that we have the jacket embossed with the NP logo and leave enough room so that our home based 4wd club's logo will fit on the jacket somewhere.

I'm happy to go with the flow on this one, and offer my vote when it's decided what's on offer.

So that being said what have you got in the way of preferences Rossco?

Roosco, you put this so eloquently. I agree with everything you said here and insist it is impervious to red wine stains. Other than that, I am happy for anything that fits the bill, so long as it's not up to Patch to select teh colour, or we know it'll be Pink........LMAO

Hiall. I just had a visit to a Promo Wear place near my office who does this sort of stuff. Look at the link below. The prices seem reasonable and I have tried on one of teh vests and jackets. Wel made, and the vest has sleeves that zip off. I would be interested in what everyone thinks. The Squeeze Range as shown is Uni-sex (whatever that means) and no, Patch, I did not choose it for the name. It is actually 2 items, being teh vest with zip-off sleeves and the Oxford Jacket that goes over the top. The Vest has a hidden hood as well as the jacket.

The place has teh Artwork and Embroidery facilities as well and I can get a quote if it's what everone is looking for. Over to you, Patch.

They look the goods fixer, be more than happy withthat jacket.

Roofy the next time Swanndri send me their specials I will forward it to you, retail is fairly pricey. Although you know what you are paying for.

Hi Bob, According to the hard copy brochure I have, which is the same as teh website as far as I can see, the sizes offered are XXS - XXXL Are you outside that range?.........LMAO

Seriously, the sizes seem to be the same or better than those offered everywhere else, but I'll take other advice on this.

looks like a good find Fixer, just one question though, are they actually 2 seperate items that have to be purchased seperately, or do they come together.......... sorry it's late and my brain is more numb than usual, maybe I've missed something in the ad!!!??

My choices

I like this one best... in 'Navy, or Black'. You'll see the beer/ spirits/wine/beetroot stains on the yellow too easily. lol

I love the pockets - plenty of them, and enough room on the each of the top pockets to put the NP and your 'home club' logo

http://www.boostup.com.au/item.php?id=8

BUT, you need to order 120 pieces.

I don't mind that one either (yes, I'm easy!! lol) ... but being that I was born with sticky outty bits and not sticky inny bits, you wouldn't catch me dead in a yellow jacket regardless of how many pockets it has!!!! lmfao

Blue or black for me I'm afraid ...

That would be my 2 picks guys. Like them both, Rossco's with the better pockets is s winner but both are a nice cut.

Is that minimum order if you want them printed on? surely you could buy 20 to 50 of the suckers? How many do we think we would be chasing?
