Custom shirt Torpedoes Tea and Medals

Capt. Chris O' Flaherty

Torpedoes, Tea and Medals

Celebrating the brave actions of the Royal Navy in defeating tyranny. Here is an excerpt from the book, available on Amazon. Whilst Hitler's U-Boats were torpedoing shipments of tea bound for Great Britain, Jake Wright reciprocated by torpedoing Axis coastal shipping off Europe. His first Command was MTB 331, trained for a daredevil mission to puncture German boom defences protecting their battleships. In his next Command, MTB 32, he was wounded in action whilst torpedoing a German convoy, but kept his small ship fighting against the odds to win the action and sink his enemy; for his bravery he was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross. Further acts of gallantry in action, combined with tactical innovation, saw him earn two bars to his DSC as well as a Mention in Despatches; he became one of only 44 officers in the Second World War to receive a DSC with two Bars.

ABOUT THE SHIRT

One of the best fitting shirts for both men and women. The tri-blend fabric has a trim, fitted look. The feel is classic cotton, the stretch of the fabric makes it fit well, without being tight. Solid, substantial weight fabric yet breathable and light as a garment. The fabric has been proven to hold up with excellent durability. Color holds through repeated washings.

In terms of dimensions, the design is on the long-side in terms of fit, making it cover well, stay tucked in if you choose to wear it that way and avoids the classic plumber's-ass when bending over. See the size-guide link above.

• 50% polyester, 25% combed ring-spun cotton, 25% rayon
• Fabric weight: 3.4 oz/yd² (115.3 g/m²)
• Pre-shrunk for extra durability
• Regular trim fit (see size guide link above)
• High-quality, side-seamed construction

A riveting book for anyone interested in making a difference and looking for inspiration from brave leadership

Music fans have an emotional connection that runs deep with the artists they love, the music is a connection in their lives. A great shirt can express that connection, start conversations with friends and get stories going about great times, concerts trips etc. This is just a shirt, but making a great expression of a band on a shirt may be the new album cover. Let your fans reconnect with the music- and help others find new music with something that makes it out into the physical world. Each one of our shirts have a URL and QR code that is easy to find, they take people to a landing page to buy the shirt - but we also try to make as many connections back to the fan site, and will embed your latest recording on the page if we can (bandcamp makes this possible easily). Talk to us about designing a shirt that goes beyond just reproducing the record art.

We are masters at taking photos of buildings and places and making them interesting and artistic. We can render pencil sketches, watercolors, oil paintings and a host of illustrative rendering styles to create artwork from images of places. Give us the best images and an understanding of what makes your place unique and we can help find the magic of the place in a something someone wants to wear.

Sometimes books have amazing artwork that is perfect for a shirt. Sometimes it takes digging to find something illustrative that can make a connection. We can advise Best of all, we can try several ideas, as our print-on-demand production facilities have very low overhead to creating a new product. We can try a few ideas if we need to find out what resonates with people.

Often finding the characters, places and styles that connect with people can be a matter of trial and error. We can produce several designs and look for what people like. Clothing is different to many other visual design challenges. We can help find the most personal and expressive images of your work. Most importantly, we will always honor the context and relevancy of your art so that you are happy with the expression.
