New Patch, Yea or Nay?

[kenkrieger]

I am old fashioned too, I like the old one better,the large old one. The one that covered most of your back,,,,thats a patch I would like to have more of. This new one looks pretty good but the old ones better.

I like the new one but I also like the old (small) patch. I have one of the giant ones on the back of my vest but the new 4" would look nice on the front. I made up a few stickers of the old XS-XJ Eleven and have one on the sidecover of my Special.

do it. do it.

[Glarusguy]

yeah

I'm in. Looks good.

[Czekus21]

I'm all for it. It will match the sticker in my truck window and the back of my helmet.

Pat, Not only am I old fashioned, but I appear to be in a very small minority. I still stick by my original choice. This campaign is not being run based on the daily polls.

Like some, my preference is for the old style patch and, if ever produced, would like a large one for back of jacket/vest.

That being said, should the proposed patch be a go... put me down for 2.

p.s. For those interested, I ordered 2 of the 'XS11 OWNERS ASSOCIATION' patch that Bruce has and, they are of excellent quality. Anybody who orders one from him won't be disappointed.

So who has the patches and how do I order them? If the person with the patches PMs me I will get a few
Thanks

I know how cheap and easy it is to make suggestions for someone else to do something, but I've seen on eBay that one can have custom reflective stickers made up...a 2"x2" XS in white might look cool on the back of a helmet. The huge network of guys on this list must have access to someone who can do this. Isn't there an XS store somewhere that does mugs and shirts? One of those online business host places?

Well, I put my money where I voted and ordered 2 of the old style patches from Desert 1 earlier this week. If this thread has has done any good it has been to rekindle interest in the old style patches which will allow Bruce to get some of his money back into circulation. By the way, I actally would buy a couple of the new style patches should they become a reality, I just PREFER the old patch (probably because it's like me, old...) .

Update.

Hey folks,

First, the poll is closed, but very informative and positive, thanks!

The small one is now in the process of getting finalized and into production.!

The larger back one also, however I'll need to sell a fair number of the small ones first to recoup the initial investment capital to be then able to order the larger one. They will be a fair and good price!

I have some other ideas, but we'll see how these go first! Stay tuned!

Thanks

If that could be made into a decal, it would look great on my plain side covers

FINAL UPDATE!

Okay folks,

Sorry this took so long, our graphic redisigning kinda got lost at the patch maker, and I didn't followup as quickly as I should have! But...the XS11.com Logo Patch has now been finalized and is actually going into production tomorrow, they promised to have them in my hands in 2 weeks or less!!

Here's THEIR sample of what it will look like complete with patch textures and such!!!


I'll post the final cost and where to send your orders and $$ very soon!!! Thanks for your patience!
