nacho_nacho_man 477 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Morning all,A contact of mines can put me in touch with a company that offer silk jacquard scarfs. They offer full customisation and allow us to submit our own design / drawings.Minimum order is 120 with each unit costing between 3 - 5 quid. - Quite clearly, a low sales order (e.g below 300 units) will result in higher costs per scarf.I'm not looking to start any sort of scarf business or what have you, however I know that there has been expressed interest in the silk jacquard scarves. If there is enough interest I'm happy to get involved. The product offering would be at cost price (plus a donation to Rangers Media forum to help in their charity work).Clearly there are many other factors that would need forum input - namely design. - If anyone is proficient in photoshop then please get in touch.I've added a poll to see if we can generate enough demand to get this idea off the ground.(I'll run this poll until sunday evening, if sufficient demand is reached then I'll move onto the next stage.) - Met.Design competition now underway: http://forum.rangers...howtopic=248892 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_Ibrox_Preacher 2,812 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 A Rangers-esque Paisley Pattern would melt yer hands off it would be that popular, I would imagine.For the record I've copyrighted that idea, any of you pinch it and am sending a couple of hard, pipe-hittin, African Americans to go to work on you holmes with a pair of pliers and a blowtorch.

nacho_nacho_man 477 Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 I had something like this in mind, pattern wise. From a copyright stand point we couldn't really get in any trouble. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a copyright stand point we couldn't really get in any trouble.Not bad, although that does look like someones tore a strip off a boys Rangers curtains. I could have a blast on the old photoshop later, I haven't used it properly in a couple of years so it could take a while. I'll let ye know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I'd like to see a retro 60's / 70s design. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Christ!Well i was born in Paisley, the Paisley Pattern is world famous, an amended "Rangers" version could look good imo. Ultimately it was an idea beyond rangers tie colours and 'No Surrender', not like you can put the badge of Rangers on it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nacho_nacho_man 477 Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 The scarf design will be a forum based decision. We really need one of the photoshop experts to design a wee mockup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
linfield1690 4,249 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 A scarf the same design as the current club tie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nacho_nacho_man 477 Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 This is the silk scarf that got me thinking about creating our own. IIRC this original was sold for £150 on ebay not so long ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Govan Front 78 43 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Sounds like a top idea - I actually really like the mod Paisley style one but might not be to everyone's taste...Maybe incorporating the red lion in a subtle style somewhere would work well (not necessarily on the Paisley pattern one though) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcoholic 1,348 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Yeah I'm in for a couple or three. I'd like to see them based on the original design however the Paisley pattern one is more than acceptable. Especially if it incorporated a logo somewhere at the ends.
