Tom Priest from T&M Embroidery posted a thread on The Rocketry Forum asking for six people to review one of his new shirts. I was fortunate enough to receive a free Apollo 13 t-shirt.

The shirt arrived within just a few days via priority mail. I received a gray shirt with the Apollo 13 rocket logo designed by T&M. The embroidery work was flawless. All of the threads are neat and tight. The colors and design were well thought out. The design is small and is located on the left front of the shirt. It’s design and clarity draws your attention to it. The shirt is made of 90% preshrunk cotton and 10% polyester.

The SouthEast Alabama Rocket Society (SEARS) of which I am a member, ordered our club shirts and hats from T&M. I requested a white polo type shirt with a khaki hat. T&M embroidered the club’s new logo on both using a design created by one of our club member. My polo shirt is made of 50% cotton and 50% polyester blend. The logo turned out great. The design is clear with no loose threads.

Although, it is still impressive, the logo on my hat didn’t turn out as clear as the one on my shirt. I’m sure that embroidering designs on a hat can be a little more tedious than on larger items like shirts. The hat itself is well made and of high quality materials. It has a buckle style adjustment for those of us with “between sized” heads. So we can adjust it for our comfort.

Overall, I was quite impressed with the quality of the products I received and will be ordering more items in the future. I browsed their website to find my next “got to have” item. They have a multitude of colors to choose from. I did not see, however, the hats listed on the site. So, if you are interested in hats you may want to e-mail or call them.
