Very nice. I'll have to spend a bit more time to figure out shipping to here. Or wait until October when I'm in Connecticut, if your boys let me through...
I'll be with my wife, that usually works.
By the way, because your MacGregor shirt is beautiful, can somebody give me the pronunciation of the motto, please.

Pre-shrunk?
Is the cotton pre-shrunk, or do we need to order them a size or so larger than what we usually wear?

I am 99% certain the shirts are pre-shrunk. Just about everything we purchase it. However, next time I'm on the phone with our shirt guy I'll ask him to make sure.

I'm definitely going to have to have one of these. No doubt.
Oh, that brings back memories.
My School motto was Sola Nobilitas Virtuus.

These look really nice. Great quality.
I think I may have to order one when the next paycheck comes in.

Jeez Matt,
First the Lewis hose addiction....now this!
I'm suddenly hopeful that with a local shop and modern computer technology that just maybe....possibly....for once in my life...someone that does these clan crests could use the Island Scot/Canadian Scot spelling of "Macdonald" instead of capitalizing the D....???
There are many many Macdonald families out there who would RUSH to your shop to get them...and I even belong to a group of "Small d d*mn it!" Macdonalds - as well as my extended family and would proudly spread the word of this treasure.
Or are they olde, staid, inflexible, and only gonna do the MacDonald ones and leave us Macdonalds out in the cold...
Yes I'm pleading...begging...all that stuff.

Actually, the way they are doing these crests for us, the names are all in caps. See the picture of the Armstrong crest on the site, and notice that it is ARMSTRONG. With "Mac" names the "ac" is lower case and all the rest are in caps. So MacDonald would be "MacDONALD."
I don't know how easy it would be for him to customize spelling. I believe that the name and the crest are all part of the same piece of artwork for them. In other words, the name is not a separate element of the design. But that's my assumption, I don't know to be honest with you.
One more question to ask the shirt guy next week....
