Seems this is coming up again, so this will give us a good idea if we should make the effort again...
So, please answer if you would truly invest in one...
Bear in mind that we do not have any pricing options but generally Jerseys run between $50 - $100.
If you answerd yes to any of the abov, please post your name below with the type of Jersey you're interested in so we get a good idea of what we need to look for.

I voted for short sleeves as a default, but I'd also look at long sleeves as long as they were a little lighter than the last batch, which was made of some sort of thicker, mid-weight material.
What I'd REALLY like to see are wool jerseys, as suggested in that other thread.

think I've made that clear by now ;-)
2 jerseys if wool
maybe 1 if synthetic (I have so many already)

I would probably get one each SS and LS, but since onlye one vote went SS since it will be spring soon and all I have is LS stuff at the moment.

Cool;
Seems like there is interest out there. I'll do a little more research and keep you all posted;
The goal is to get old school WOOL Jerseys...

Wool, plain & simple (blue, white stripe?)... like it should have done when i did the jerseys a couple of years ago.

Yep - that's the idea...
I've contacted manufacturer. As soon as I have more details (pricing, colors, etc.) I'll make them available and present to board for approval...
Hopefully we can get an order going out shortly after the winter party.

:D I am interested primarily in the SS version (synthetic). I may also would be in for a LS one (synthetic), but only if that is the only option. If there is only one order, then SS (I usually just wear layers under it...if it is on the cool side becuase I only have SS jerseys)
I am not interested in wool at all.

The survey did not allow us to check multiple options, so... I would buy one of each, although I couldn't do that all in one purchase (probably 2).

You might also consider T-Shirts. That way I could wear one while doing trail work or doing volunteer work at events. I think it would increase visibility in an important way.
You may already have T-Shirts for sale somewhere unknown to me. :)

And pint glasses, caps, etc. and so forth. Have the MORE overlords (and ladies) ever looked into opening a CafePress store? Seems pretty easy to do: http://www.cafepress.com/cp/info/sell/

I've already set one up - just not implemented yet...

Great minds think alike, I guess. ;)

Multiple options would be good. I'd say the short sleeve jersey, and possibly a jacket (like I need another one). Pint glass was a good idea; shot glasses, too, maybe (I collect them)? Gawd... now we're beginning to sound like we should be going to meetings... heheheheh

Short Sleeve, club fit.
How might one be able to purchase a MORE T-Shirt? Perhaps one could be included in MORE membership if requested for the same $15 fee. It would potentially incerase fundage as well as put it out there as already stated.
I do the shot glass thing too. :o Pint glasses rule! All the better to consume a homemade adult beverage with. :)
Also a great Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanza, ect, ect. gift!

Short sleeve, loose fit, please.
I'm interested in the T-shirt, too.
BTW, does MORE make license plate frames? I need to replace mine. I have had enough running free ads for dealership.

BTW, if another order does get off the ground and it ends up being for synthetic jerseys again, can I put in a plea to return to blue? I, for one, liked it a lot more than the green.

Why not go with a total redesign if we get a normal jersey order in.. I kinda like the idea of changing up the designs each year. Gives folks who bought the previous versions an excuse to buy the new ones.....
You know Drew you could always organize a normal jersey order :)

I like the idea of annual redesigns, but I pity the poor fool who steps up...
If you want a Jersey order to actually get done, I'm not your guy. I can barely organize tying my shoes. That said, I'd be happy to help anyone who does take the lead, if needed.

If you were at the party yesterday you probablyhad a chance to hear me say that we are ordering the New Jerseys; Check out the order form here:
2007 Jersey (http://www.more-mtb.org/index.php?page=07jersey)
based on input I got from many of you - on the boards and on the trail - we decided to go with a very simple retro woll Jersey.
Depending on the success of this round I will do this again next year and will change the design accordingly. So, to motivat me :D go to the order page right now and buy one - so I know the effort was not spent in vain...
The Jerseys I selected a pretty darn sweet and the price we're offering them at is WELL below what they go for regularly...
On another note, the MORE Cafe Press Store is also live (http://www.cafepress.com/moremtb), so go there...
I will be adding products to the list as time permits - I think theyhave license plate frames as well. That'll be the next one I add if it's there...
