NEW FUCKING SHIRTS!

April 7th, 2010

Vegan Dragnet fans, your prayers for a t-shirt have been answered! A GIANT thank you goes out to Tom Neely who did the design for us. I suggest everyone check out his work and his comics! When I gave him the idea for the t-shirt and the fundraiser I wasn’t expecting something so fitting. Dragnet: started out as a radio show! The term Dragnet means “a system of coordinated measures for apprehending criminals or suspects,” hey, that sounds exactly like a coordinated network of Vegan Police officers! How about an easily veganized tagline! Best of all, the show Dragnet actually improved the perceptions of police officers among the general population (we aren’t really that stoked on people loving cops, but hopefully our show helps improve perceptions of animals and the people who love them!).

Our first t-shirt fundraiser raised $300 for Niagara Action for Animals Spay Neuter Initiative Program (S.N.I.P). This time, to match the design, we are sending $10 from EVERY shirt to Sherry, Bob and all the pigs at Ruby Ranch Pig Sanctuary in Mount Forest, On. We suggest you head over to their site and read some of the bio’s, look at some of the beautiful pictures and help out any way you can!

Shirts are $20 CAD, and currently we have white Mens and Women’s shirts in Medium and Large sizes (we have more sizes/colours coming so don’t fret, just let us know). All shirts are American Apparel, so please use their sizing chart.

I want to send a huge thank you out to Josh Hooten and Kelly Twomey, both were very helpful in pointing us in the right direction when it came to design and where to send the funds. Also, big thank you to Kyle, Isaac and Biff at Pedal Printing! I feel very proud saying that my t-shirts are printed by a guy who has a vegenaise tattoo on his thigh!

For anyone who wants a shirt, get in touch with us at theveganpoliceradio@gmail.com or send funds over paypal to that same address. We WILL ship internationally, but if you are outside of North America, you have to be really really patient. All shipping and handling costs are on the honour system and you will have to cover them after we ship.

xo,
Dylan/Crista/Ryan and Co.
