AMG TSHIRTS & Hoodies

Guys,
My friend did this campaign on this TeeSpring Website [www.teespring.com].
I had never heard of it before, but its pretty damn cool.

Basically, anyone can create a shirt / hoodie / tank, etc, and market it to see if it sells.

So i did a couple to see how it goes.
AMG Apparel

The logo i used is one i had made about 10 years ago for name cards i had back in the day. (Actually they were pretty cool, just my initials [AMG] and my number on the back) lol

Anyway, i still have the logo, and thought, why not give it a try.
Obviously, not going to make a business out of it, but good for a bit of fun. And personally i think the logo looks quite unique.

Share it around if you think its cool. And why not have a go at making your own shirt or similar!

For those of you interested in a bit of a closer look at the image on the garments, see below



Share with your friends!!!
Thanks guys!

Hey there.
Not sure that those specifics can be catered for. You have a weird body? LOL
They only have pre determined sizes/ styles available.

Though its nice to see there is interest!

Just did it for a bit of fun.

That's not my dimensions lol
Medium wt fabric, not the lt or heavy weight
Athletic is a fit vs regular, etc, it is basically tapered at the waist
A shirt length slightly below the waist vs those that hang to the knees like a skirt lol
A tucked in tee shirt looks silly, like white patent leather shoes & belt with bermuda shorts

They are pretty much tee shirt options

Dude, if you're going to make diamond encrusted clothing, you need a tight tank top version for the ladies. The skankyier the better!

A guy wearing a diamond encrusted mid-rif around my locale would suffer public scorn & ridicule lol

Hahahaha.
True that.

Its not a business. It was just a bit of fun. There is a tank top option, but i think its for guys. And there is a chicks version too.

As i said in my first post, my mate did this TeeSpring thing, and did a funny shirt, thats how i found out about it.
So i had the logo from years ago, thought i would see if it would appeal to others.
I know the AMG logo is the old one (it was current when i had my cards made).

If you guys are looking for a plain AMG shirt, try this one from shirtboss.com. New logo, plus come in kids sizes, too. Kids' shirts are nice, but my large fits a little weird.

Tee shirts are for doing yard work. Polo and other neatly cut apparel are what AMG Drivers need. Maybe even a stylish Cowboy hat. No plastic or rubber shoes either.

A nice crisp white well fitting tee shirt looks good with jeans and some suede clark desert boots

Not for work mind you, but just hanging out

I like pink lacoste polos with the collar pulled up lol

I think it changed with the W212 onwards, so from 2009 (late im guessing), as ALL W212's have new font.

My 2010 has the old style AMG logo.

Here is a post from the PL from July 31, 2008. So the logo was changed sometime before that .

http://www.mercedes-amg.com/privatel...hp/t-2331.html

AMG Private Lounge Members,

As many of you have noticed, Mercedes-AMG has re-designed the AMG logo.

In an exciting move, AMG is now being recognized as the fourth brand within the Mercedes-Benz cars group, right beside Mercedes-Benz, Maybach and smart. With this new positioning, we have created a new brand identity. The new brand identity of AMG is confident, sovereign and also it´s a perfect consensus between integration and differentiation within Mercedes Benz Cars.

The new brand identity is characterized by a pure look, valuable brand appearance and appealing headlines. This way AMG achieves a high attention and brand awareness.

In this context the "white space" plays a vital role. In order to focus all attention on our product, it is presented in a white environment. Clear focus on the essential. Without distraction.

This maximum product staging is combined with striking communication. With the choice of Corpo A as font, Mercedes-Benz is always visualized and we achieve maximum recognition. Furthermore we have adapted the AMG logo slightly: the new "A" closes the visual gap and makes the logo more emblematic. This will strengthen the visual brand identity.

The interaction of the three elements product = emotion, communication = typography and white = space gives our brand its independent, concise and unique character. Exactly what distinguishes any of our vehicles.

Warmest Regards,
AMG Information
