Guys, Hardy Heron Mens T-shirt is out of stock :O

[legolas_w]

I think something magically is going ton with the Heron :P
Hardy Heron men's T-shirt is out of stock in a very short period of time.
https://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?products_id=189

Does any one has one of this T-shirts? what is the material used to make the Heron image? is it painted or it is woven?

Thanks

[rudihawk]

Probably stuck onto the shirt somehow...

[ACJarrett]

I think the site should say "Out of Stork" ;)

[Ioky]

I love that T so much, Like the design, haha

[ShadowGray]

I like the design, I wish they made a few more, and actually said ubuntu on it. Why buy an ubuntu shirt if the average person will think you're an idiot with a bird shirt on?

The "average person" probably doesn't know what Ubuntu is in the first place. LoL.

[tigerplug]

You can sooooooooo pull all the ladies with one of these ;)

[tribaal]

Man I wish I could get one :(

Hope they will reprint a few.

I'd love to have one, too. And I like the fact that there is no print of Ubuntu on it (Guerilla marketing style :twisted: ).

The only big bird that would look really good on a t-shirt would be Big Bird (from Sesame Street :D)

[rye_]

yeah.

Bad idea to stop printing these shirts, they look great and I'm sure they'd have sold a good few hundred more.

I ordered mine yesterday, glad I did it looks good I think. I wonder how long it will take to get here with Royal Snail...... Sorry I mean Royal Mail

Hi
Will you post a review of T-shirt material?
I am looking to know whether the Heron photo is stick-ed on the T-Shirt or it is woven or ...

Thanks.

They probably use screen printing. In other news, this shirt is awesome. I don't know if it is $32 worth of awesome, but it is awesome nonetheless.

[SpaceMonkeyAU]

It's such a beautiful shirt but it went out of stock so fast. I emailed Canonical asking (should have begged) if they would reprint more, no reply yet :(

[wannadumpwindows]

I really wanted one too, but that $32 price tag curbed my interests pretty quickly too. I just can't bring myself to spend that kind of loot on a T-shirt. Especially when I know that I'm just gonna snag the hell out of it on some solder points and case edges . . . .

[rogun]

That's a beautiful shirt. I would buy one in a heartbeat, if only there were more available. I've never spent $32 on a t-shirt before, but that's a work of art.

I have to guess that they're difficult to mass-produce, because I can't understand why only 500 were made available otherwise. I mean, what's the point of selling free advertisements (even by word of mouth, if it doesn't have Ubuntu on it) if you're going to limit how many can be sold?

[wannadumpwindows]

It wouldn't be a "Limited Edition" if they made them forever. LoL.

[SpaceMonkeyAU]

They don't have to make them so "limited".

[Mr. Picklesworth]

If it's any consolation, the heron there is a slightly older one that has the red distributed strangely. This may persuade me to buy one of those printable t-shirt transfers...

[zeerover]

MAJOR disappointment. I had hoped to order this shirt when I got paid tomorrow, along with the Metro backpack. I'm so annoyed about the shirt that I'll take my money elsewhere for a new laptop pack as well. I don't have much money and like to spend what little I do have supporting open source projects that I participate in. Since there's never enough money to go around anyway, this move has convinced me to go someplace else with $150 this time around. Thanks Canonical.

[akiratheoni]

That shirt looked SOOO cool too!! I wanted one =/

[malcam]

Normally I stay well away from clothing with logos etc... so when I saw that shirt I snapped it up immediately. Would be nice to see more products like it where there's a focus on a design rather than the name.

[nebulus-design]

Just got my shirt in the post...

It is a great design, using really nice screen printing, and on the back is a small ubuntu logo with the the words hardy heron.
Printed on a nice Hanes 'Top-T' shirt.

Its a bit lighter than the pictures on the websites show..

[Totzo]

want one want one want one! :mad:

Limited edition items are limited edition for a reason. If you overshoot the amount you need, you end up with stock lying around with nobody excited about it. Intrepid is out in less than 6 months.

[SpaceMonkeyAU]

Good news!


Thank-you very much for your enquiry and sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Due to an unprecedented demand for the Limited Edition Hardy Heron T-shirts, we are pleased to say that we will be producing another version. The design will still feature a Heron on the front but with slightly different colour scheme, as well as a lighter brown T-shirt.

We are hoping to make these available to pre-order on the Canonical Store in the next couple of days and these will be available to ship in the next 2-3 weeks. So be sure to grab one if you are still interested.

Keep spreading the Ubuntu love.

Warm regards,
The Canonical Store Team

Good news!
Well, that's going to be 2 long weeks pressing F5. Hopefully I wont be to late.

[Lod]

Just pre-ordered the new version of the shirt. Don't know when it will come out.

[Tomosaur]

I really, really love the Heron design. I hate wearing logos though, so I probably won't be buying the t-shirt while it has the Ubuntu logo on it.

[barsofham]

I was sad that they ran out so I emailed them to ask for the design. They sent me it. :) Here you go. (http://www.barsofham.com/2008/10/08/i-love-ubuntu/)

[Mr. Picklesworth]

That is Astoundingly cool, barsofham. Now I need either a ginormous t-shirt transfer (and a good printer) or a cheap t-shirt printing service.

[hellmet]

Hardy hardly works for me, so I don't care if it runs out..
