That's not a bad shout to be fair, depends where the fabric is made I guess.

[sabergirl]

Yeah.  It may be hard to get accurate maker information for a lot of the pieces, too.

[rocket]

pretty sure they are / were made in the US… Maybe checking some UK surplus stores online?

[Megatron1505]

I did exactly that after reading Sabergirls post, found some great looking heavy wool blankets for £14 each which were ripe for customising…...made in Bangladesh 

[rocket]

look for US or Swedish ones, still not home, so can not check atm…

Thanks guys, the Facebook link sells ready made blankets…..we're on the case. Need to put on a pot of coffee, this could be a late one.

Both etsy and ebay seem to have a lot for sale in the 20-25 dollar range:  https://www.etsy.com/search?q=wool+army+blanket&order=price_asc&page=1

We've found a couple of local fabric warehouses and mills locally to visit over the weekend, should make for an interesting field trip if nothing else.

Is a 2014 Forum tshirt happening?

[Giles]

No plans.  2013 sold poorly…..

[derivative666]

That stinks, I think 2013 sold poorly because of the short sizing issue.

[Megatron1505]

Bring back the hoody !!

That's too bad.  Glad I got in on last years.  I bet I wear that more than most due to the shorter length.  Oh well.

I have asked H whether we have any bodies.  I may be able to sneak a small run in…......

[Seul]

Currently wearing my 2k11 one… Love it...

[Snowy]

I wear my 12 and 13 a lot. would love a micro run if it can be done, clearly not worth doing big runs

[Giles]

H is checking what stock of bodies he has available…..

[Chris]

Well, I've bought every year from 10 to 13, so if you do a run, go ahead and count me in for one.

Sounds like we should stealth-kick start it. If we get enough backers it's made, if not tough love, we need to get more on board…CC details given up front, but not charged until the goal is reached.
