Help me with my Letterman Jacket CONTEST! $10 prize!

[CelestEel]

Yeah but you suggested it! My username is weird anyway, since I share the account with my dad (footGUY, since he’s a podiatrist) yours is a pretty name. I’ll come up with some better stuff tomorrow when I have paper and pencil. Font space has millions of free fonts Im sure I can find a similar font or I could just PM revhtree and ask for the font file. I’ll post a lot of new designs tomorrow!

It's very sweet of you to give me credit for a suggestion, but credit for that is really not that big of a deal to me. I would be honored, but you'd be walking around with my name on you.
You don't have to do that if you don't want to.
That jacket is going to be awesome! I can't wait to see it!

Sweet!!! Yes, if your school colors are maroon and white I would definitely change out that orange!
If you can get Fraggin Saxy in the same font as R2R's that would look really awesome if it's on the same patch as the R2R. However, if you are going to put Fraggin Saxy on it's own patch then it will be cool no matter what font you use!
Oh, and @footgal since it's your jacket it would probably be a whole lot cooler if it had your username instead of mine.

I mean... @CelestEel, if I mail the patch to you can you sign it and mail it back to me? Shipping is like $10 and I’d be happy to cover it. Thanks @fishguy242 !!!

Well sure I can! I don't see why not. No one has ever asked me for my autograph before.

I would say send the whole jacket around to everyone who contributed an idea for it and have them sign it too, IF it were just a jacket you were making that featured reefing & music, and it wasn't a school letterman jacket. That might not be such a good idea though. You might not ever see it again. lol

Has a winning name been chosen yet? Or did I miss it

Hahahahaha... The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Reef Jacket

She went with "Reeds n Reefs" and I think she's going to put "Fraggin Saxy" on a sleeve patch.

I mean... if y’all can find a jacket on amazon or something I can order it and send it around for everyone to send around/draw on/add patches to. I think I’d be really fun! Signature, R2R name, patches, embroidery, whatever anybody wants to do to it that’s REEF-RELATED! I’d really like a entire reef outfit to wear to the shows and stuff, Im actually saving up for custom vans for my birthday next year! I’m gonna have a Zoa garden on them probably, maybe my clams or euphyllia garden tho idk how my tank will look by February!

 

[PicassoClown04]

Okay so I found this super reasonably priced jacket with great reviews. I’m thinking I’ll include a silver sharpie and black sharpie in the box?

Amazon Link

It looks perfect for customizing, silver sharpie will show up great on the black and since it’s cotton I don’t think sharpie will wash out. If anybody wants to embroider/put on a patch it should be easy enough to do that.

So the plan is that I’ll have a sign up list here on this thread for whoever is interested? And each person will send it to the next person on the list (I will PM addresses so they’re not open for the public) and they’ll pm/text me that they’re sending the jacket on to the next person? Then the last person on the list will send it back to me? This is gonna take a lot of trust from everybody to make this work but I think we can do this!

....and by "REEF-RELATED" she DOES NOT mean gluing frags to the jacket, smart @%s!
Seriously though, this could be really cool! I would sign up.

 

[CelestEel]

Wait a second! I should have apologized in advance about my "Dori" like attention span. @footgal with all this talk of a different jacket,, you ARE still doing the Reeds n Reefs / Fraggin Saxy letterman jacket right?

 

[Katrina71]

Maybe... but I think if I wear the coral reef jeans I embroidered and my reefing tshirts I made then I might be able to convince the school that it’s legitimately coral

Must see those!!! I'd kill for retro hippie bell bottoms with coral embroidery on the kicks! Maybe a safer option would be "reef life"

 

[Katrina71]

You should consider selling your jeans. I have been looking for a long tshirt dress with reef designs embroidered around the hem. It would help fund your Vans!

The honor would be mine! I'd be proud to rock HER signature!

 

[Katrina71]

There is a huge missed market for female reefers in fashion. It could start simple with a clownfish on a scarf. #Reefthreads

If the MR Reef Masks people can make masks with coral patterns and clownfish on them then I would think scarfs, shirts, pants, dresses, anything could be done. Now I'm mad that we don't already have all of this!

Red bubble has some awesome designs, but only available in short length dresses. Nobody needs to see me in a mini. 20 years ago, ok...now, no way! I'd be down with more subtle leggings with a border, but not all over. I'm too old for that.
