Can't we all just decide on which wolf t-shirt we are all going to buy and get UKB printed on the back?

I vote for
FUKC

I started using this on twitter as a hashtag, but don't think it would be great for a t-shirt.

Most people would think I shop at French Connection UK

It works on the forums/twitter but 99.9% of people just wouldn't get it.

The FCUK thing was kind of the point...

99% of people wonder why the hell my t-shirt has a bunny rabbit and a toothbrush on.

Didn't someone once design a t-shirt that said WWGD? and had a picture of Johnny G on it? I'd wear that.

My vote's for any combo of Gaskins, wolves, unicorns, and low-ball dirty limestone.  Gaskins: the Man; the Mythos.   Hell yeah! 

In contrast, the FUKC design just seems a bit petty.  Reminds me of those football fans who spend games chanting their hatred of a rival they aren't even playing at the time.  Why give something you don't like the satisfaction of your attention?  As the old adage goes, never wrestle a pig - you both get muddy but the pig enjoys it.

You wouldn't even need to put 'UKB' on the back. It could be like those secret 'ganstas' round my area that roll one leg of their trousers up halfway.

Some winning concepts flying around here. BUT there needs to be a vest version. More vest = more power.

I like the original with bunny & toothbrush, and the picture below on the back anyone know richdraws and could give him a prod to knock something up in his lunchhour?

(http://ukbouldering.com/media/images/spotter.jpg)

The only thing I'd change though with this style is to have one less colour printed and a more stencil like design.  Its a nice picture, but a large square printed section square makes for a sweaty back (on me at least), so perhaps if the design is black/white/a third colour and that third colour is simply the t-shirt itself.

That said Stallion's first wolf/Moon combo is genius.

Lies! You only think you do. Can you knock one up with wolves howling from on top of deliverance and/or other famous problems? Obviously there'd be no limestone ones as they have no top.

Wad punter is my favourite, and ukb somewhere on it. I think less is more and I reckon grit friendly colours are the way to go. (and maybe some wolf action)

So it's been a while and my old UKB T-shirt is wrecked and barely fits me any more...

Do people feel it'd be worthwhile doing another run and/or creating a new one?

I'd buy one...

Someone suggested a phrase from tomtom of "Just Practising" for a new T-shirt would go down well.
