Great Shirt Feedback
The shirt feedback has been great. Glad you like them.

Vanessa Fors has invested a lot of time and love to source the fabric, an innovative material called Chitosante. She also designed the shirts and oversaw the production from beginning to end, answering a lot of anxious questions form your Chief Executive Fat Ass, measuring (thanks to our models Ean and John) and recalculating shrinkage during the screening process. I was amazed how Vanessa, noticing the large chest of one of our members, went back to the drawing table to make sure XL would be wide enough in the chest. Thanks, Vanessa! These shirts are a labour of love. Credits also go to Jess Marshall, who designed the labels and provided the screening artwork and to Michele Sherstan, who spent an evening with me packaging shirts and addressing envelopes.
Here is some of the feedback we received so far:
From Kristie:
"What an awesome shirt! I love the color, the design, the fit, everything. Marie Rivard also loves hers. Too cool. Had lots of folks at the Harry Run checking out my CFA sweatshirt after the run. We may get a bunch of new members by the sounds of things.
From Chris:
"I really like the shirt this year, nice fabric."
From Carie:
"Just wanted to let you know I received my shirt in the mail yesterday,
went for a run in it today and love it. Love the colour, love the fit,
love the fabric. Great job! and many thanks!"
From James:
"Hi! Sibylle, how are you? I see Ean is up to his old tricks(hurt again).
Great shirt, I received it yesterday and attaching pictures.(they look real
good full screen.) About the spring bunny hop, the trails are now under 4
feet of snow, some of trail markers have disappeared, it may have to turn
into a x-country ski. We need a major melt down in the next couple of weeks
or it may not be runnable. I skiied on the trails Sunday and if you went off
the trail a tiny bit, you be almost up to your waist in snow with skiis on."
From Pat:
"My new shirt arrived today and I am wearing it as I write this. It fits very well. The arm length is just right and it is nicely fitted through the waist. I look forward to putting it into action. Thanks a lot!"
