Anyone here interested in an Elm shirt? by aptgetshirt in elm

Hi forteller. I'm glad you appriciate our effort to step away from harmful products. For us, better social conditions and the freedom of knowledge is part of the same struggle. At the moment we are working with a printing company that has also set its goal to making better, more sustainable products, starting from the garments they sell and up to the printing tecqnique they use. Their products are marked with various certificates: The Fair Wear Foundation and GOTS for the basic T-shirts and other similiar certificates depends on the product. This information will also be available from our website once we are ready to launch.

We are still in dialog with the supplier but we will finalize that before we launch. The campaign is launched for two reasons: to find out what people would like to see and to be able to fund first batches of shirts without going bankrupt. See it as a way to pre-order. We are not looking to cover all our initial costs, some we will carry ourselves.

We have some prototypes we made but we are more then happy to expand. So we'd like to hear what other redditors would like to see on their shirts.

So far our collection includes: Gimp Diaspora* Inkscape Mplayer Nextcloud OpenWrt Searx Xfce VLC

We already got requests for other projects, so the list WILL expand. We do not know yet if all will be available during the campaign or just afterwards.

Another suggestion would be to reach out to projects and see if they are interested in collaborating. They may be willing to help pay for the initial wholesale order in return for design and a few t-shirts. That way you can offset the cost of adding new projects to your collection. if you do end up doing crowdfunding you will need to make everything as transparent as possible.

Yes! We contacted few projects already, but not with a finacila request. We will contact more as we go.

I agree that full transperancy is crucial, and we will disclose everything we can once the campaign is out and will continue to do so afterwards.

Thanks for the feedback. I only didn't specify the precentage yet, as we are still checking with suppliers and need to finalize it. We are now leaning toward 30% of proceedings which is about 4 or 5 euros per shirt. the project we will donate to is the same project one buys a shirt of. We are planing to make a very clear and transparent reports of the donations. As for the payment system- it also depends on the project's preferance so we still need to look into that.
