The ebb and flow of things......

To this point the Tartan Terrier has been a bit of a experiment  , would people like the logo? what products would sell?, what direction to take?  All very interesting and I must say a bit stressful as it all costs money and times are tough to say the least!
   I am very encouraged by a few things and disappointed by others The  Tartan Terrier logo  has been so well received , which is so satisfying ! finding American products  to put it on not so easy . You would think a USA made polo shirt would be not that difficult , well it is! I have found one but it only is available in a few basic colors  . The shirt is very nice and I have been wearing one and the quality is very good .
   Also going forward a private label Polo of Supima cotton of the highest quality is on the way of course with  Terrier logo and in some fantastic colors this will be my signature Item.
    A few weeks out I have designed a embroidered ribbon with the tartan terrier logo I am looking forward to having leather tab buckle belts made perhaps tote bags trimmed  with the ribbon, key fobs  maybe even flip flops  !

  I just put in some some fun caps with the burgee logo and  a cool military shape Gul sailing hat  both should be up on the site today
  One last thought I am considering opening a retail location( Ct.) with a small store featuring the full line Gul sailing gear and clothing and the the Tartan Terrier clothing   It is a big decision the retail environment  is difficult and and there is no room for mistakes I'd love some feedback!
    Almost forgot adding the Kaenon sunglasses the premier sailing glasses worn by professional sailors and everyone in between great looking frames made in Italy and of course the best polarized  lens for all things water very excited about these great sunglasses!
