The Clan T-Shirt is a garment custom designed by His Lordship.
Overview
Wilderness Guardians is the first clan to have manufactured and distributed an item of clothing in real life. The WG t-shirt is made of 100% Australian cotton, and four sizes (Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large) are available. Unlike other items of clothing such as Jagex's RuneScape merchandise, it features a fashion-smart design, and is wearable in public without fear of judgement. It is available to clan members for a non-profit price, and sold to anyone else at a standard fee of $27.00. The profit is put towards funding for WG's server.
History
Shortly after the clan's second Real Life meeting in Paris, His Lordship returned to full leadership of WG. On August 22nd, 2008, following a suggestion from a WG member, His Lordship posted a topic in the Important Announcements forum discussing possible merchandise such as coffee mugs, and rough designs for clothing - including a t-shirt. The original colour was grey (White was considered at one point), and the design was slightly different to the present render.
The shirt became a reality on August 23rd, but modifications and changes were made several weeks following. The original price was $30.50. Despite the controversy of the move at the time, over 40 shirts were sold within a month of release, and dozens more over the following months. During RuneFest (See WG's 5th Real Life meeting), 26 Jagex Moderators signed a list for the WG T-shirt they wished to have. These were delivered, with a further 3 during WG's seventh meeting.
Re-work
The official page for the shirt on the WG website can be found HERE. The page was updated on September 24th 2010, redone completley by WG Keanu. The price had been reduced from $30.50 to $25.00 (Later increased slightly to $27.00 due to currency conversion issues), and the gallery now included several new images including the main image from WG's 5th Real Life meeting (With Mod MMG) and one with WG Keanu at The Sabres' first Real Life meeting.
