4437.0. "Clothing with Digital logo available ???" by ODIXIE::HART (Thomas Hart DTN 369-6123 odixie::hart) Wed Feb 21 1996 16:07

    I live outside the great northeast United States and wanted to find out
    if the folks up north are able to purchase clothing with Digital's logo
    on them.
    
    What I would like is a catalog of items offered and their prices.
    
    Does Digital have Golf shirts that we could get and wear on casual day?
    
    Let me know.

4437.1Logo Items - Land's EndSALES::CARRSam Carr DTN 244-7224 AKO2-2/D05Wed Feb 21 1996 17:158
    The moderators may be able to identify specific notes and contacts,
    but there have been several offerings in this conference by folks
    ordering T-shirts, turtlenecks, and long sleeved shirts with logos
    from Lands End. They have the logo, and just needed to meet a
    minimum order quantity. The notes were asking other employees to
    participate.

    Do we have a mail order catalog?
4437.11QUARK::LIONELFree advice is worth every centMon Feb 26 1996 09:276
Who is "we"?  Digital, as a corporation, does not sell logo clothing, etc.
Some local sites offer such for sale.  You might be able to convince someone
at one of these sites to list what they have available and offer to mail
you merchandise.

4437.12It's a lean operationNUBOAT::HEBERTCaptain BlighMon Feb 26 1996 10:1423
At most sites this is now handled entirely by volunteers. I know this is
the case at ZKO. 

The people who: 
 
  o Develop the artwork
  o Seek out shirt vendors
  o Find screen printers and embroiderers
  o Negotiate with vendors such as Water Country, General Cinema, Canad,
    Sony Theaters, Boston Entertainment, Disney World...  
  o Deal with the cafeteria operator (who owns the cafeteria store)

...are software engineers, secretaries, tech writers, and so forth. In
most cases, doing the things listed above stretches the concept of "spare
time" and much is done at home. Running an L.L. Bean on top of this would
be over the top, unfortunately.

Visit a site store; if you like something you see, buy it, or seek out
a local Employee Activities Committee volunteer, and see if it's
possible to buy an item in quantity (if that's what you need).

I'd love to.
Unfortunately, the closest site store is a couple thousand miles away!
That's a bit far to streach a lunch hour!

Is there any way for those of us who don't have a store available to us
to buy this kind of stuff?

Find someone at a site with a store willing to handle the transaction for you.
