500 ShoeMoney Shirts Sold

by Jeremy Schoemaker on August 4, 2007 · 51 comments

Well since we opened the store a month ago we have sold over 500 shirts. Pretty crazy. If you bought one, stole one, borrowed one from a friend, or got a free one at a conference take a picture in it and send it to me. I will put it up in the gallery like these guys. If you also send me a link to your site I will link it up for life ;) .

And also if your camera shy you can always put on a chicken suit like this guy.

Soon these will be random site wide on the sidebar (pics and links) as soon as I figure out how to do that with gallery.

I think so far my favorite is Vintage Tub’s picture (the bald caps rule! )

I can tell you first hand its much bigger then that. I wore my shoemoney shirt to a conference and it was a completely different experience. All the affiliate managers treated me like I was a rock star.

$5 to get a perm link from shoemoneys gallery + rockstar treatment at conferences… ;)

Congrats! 500 shirts in a month, that’s an average of almost 17 sales a day. Great work. I need to buy one and show off my picture.
I think the second picture is the best!

Those are cool looking shirts! You should include a bald cap with every shirt- after all, that’s the image!

Just curious.. are you actually making a profit or losing money on the sale of these shirts?! I can see where you’re coming from.. it seems like a great promotional idea to “give” them away at such a bargain..?

Pretty funny pictures, I will post some with my girlfriend as soon as I get my tshirts.

The cult phenomenon has begun! Pretty soon all the big-time bloggers will be sporting their shirts, and you’ll have to pick a clan to side with.

Did you mail mine out yet :(

lol when I get it I’ll send a pic. Ha, not going to even load the store in firefox it scares me.

I would jump on the opportunity to work in the chicken suit. The only problem is it’s really hard to see out the nose holes. I trip and run into stuff a lot.
I do need to take the suit out of the house. I think it freaks my neighbors out when I stare out my window.

Sweet. Love the bald head thing. The shirts look cool, the logo has always impressed me. Great job with that.

I would have bought one, but shipping to the EU just seems to be a pain in the arse…

I wish i can have your pic. The area where i live shipping cost will be 10 Times more the cost of the Tshirt.
