My current vote isn't getting a look in...
Thing is, our top two seem to be polarising opinion a bit - people love or hate 'em. But really, is this such an issue? I own plenty of t-shirts, and Bubba/UKB would be getting more net if I just bunged him a tenner on paypal than bought a shirt (which I'll do if I don't fancy the chosen design).

My vote isn't getting a look in either. And the two front runners seem to be marmite. Don't think the planet needs another unworn t shirt on my shelf, will probaby donate the cash,

Theres 44 people at present voting for the Crest, but on my thread only 36 people said they would actually fork out money for any of the designs. I think this illustrates 2 things. Firstly, people may be voting which one they like best but when it comes to the crunch don't want to pay for one, and secondly not everyone, even out of the regular users, read all these threads, thus any vote at the moment probably isn't fully representative. I must admit even I stopped reading the t-shirt threads for weeks after the ceaseless tide of shit designs showed now sign of abating.

I think if you're going to have a proper voting thread, you need to narrow down the choice a bit more, and put it in a thread which most people actually read, like bouldering or news.

Think you may have your people and percentages mixed up (22 votes, 44%). The point about numbers stands though - 50 votes in this thread and only 36 willing to buy one...

I'll buy one but as has been said the aim is for Bubba to get some cash.

I'd be happy with a car sticker...

How about skin transfers like the over-caffeinated sugary drink company climbers wear? Houdini could even wear one whilst out running in his silken thong.

I'd buy a shirt, just for adding to funds.

Here's a pic of hOUD in his jogging get up.  If Bubbs could release a branded UKB version he'd rake it in.

Thongs? Ridiculous!  

I now run naked:  even shave my whole body for lightness, aerodynamic advantage and increased greased-whippetage.

I don't understand how one design can be so far out in front (crest) yet everyone posting is claiming to prefer another? 

Would they be posting if their favoured design was winning?

Why isn't there a specific t-shirt for women either? That way you could make even more money!

I doubt there are enough of us to warrant it.  Anyway, I intend to wear mine belted as a mini-dress so man sized will be fine for that  ;)

We need vests, not just t-shirts.
I would definately buy anyone for danny's, or maybe half a dozen for garage issue, you would probably only want one of these if you understand it tho.
Failing that I would probably go for something like daves suggestion "if you can read this your spotting too closely".
another suggestion maybe just to have ukbouldering.com in an approved font accross either the front or back with UKB on the opposite side
or
how about that picture of bubba's head when he's in hospital looking mightly stoned and UKB:chilled out bouldering?

Some of the older designs didnt make it on. I recall the "it's da illest" UKBee being quite good too.
