Day 89- 2013 Dr Molotov almost done

I know it has been a while since we last posted... Life has been nuts on every front....  Just for fun on St Patrick's Day weekend, we created a themed Soda Bomb emblem...


The response we got from our loyal fans and page followers was amazing...  everyone wanted to know where to get the shirt....  We were like "What???? It's not for sale!" ...  Well we very quickly got persuaded by our fans to put it up for sale and in Presale alone sold 2x the shirts we normally sell!!!  The fans had spoken and the shirts will go out this week!!  We only ordered a very limited quantity of extras so if you 
want one make sure you get it while you can in our online store!  You will also be able to get them in adult sizes at The Altered Bee in Bristol, NH and in youth sizes at I want a pony! at her new store in Barrington, RI.

We have still been working on the Dr Molotov and are releasing the first peek of the design now with Presales to start next week....


The shirt is on a soft style blank in heathered military green...   What do you think?? Let us know on Twitter, Facebook or Tumblr.   

We are also working on a shirt for Cinco De Mayo...  We found out that Soda Bomb in Spanish is bicarbonato de bomba!!  Tell me that won't look cool across a Spanish inspired shirt with sugar skulls and luchador masks!!  :)  Oh the ideas are flowing....  Those will be released mid April for a end of April delivery.

Well as you can tell we have work to do....  

Hope you day is 'Da Bomb!!
Sue :P

2013- Day 36 Red Logo Shirt back for Presale!

Good evening Soda Bomb Fans!!  We are still working hard behind the scenes trying to give you the best shirts out there!

We have had a lot of great feedback on the Grape Grenade that is up for sale in the unisex Gildan Soft style in sizes Small through XLarge and would make a great Valentine's Day present for that someone special! They have a very nice tailored cut to the torso which makes it fit snuggly on your body.


We have also brought back the Red Logo shirt by popular demand.  We have decided this time around to switch the shirt style to the Gildan Soft Style like the Grape Grenade.  We are currently offering them for Presale in Youth and Unisex sizes.


Bob is hard at work on the Dr Molotov and hope to be getting that Pre-sale up and going within the next 2 weeks!  We are also working with the Wounded Warriors Project to make sure we get our donations set up correctly to be able to donate 5% of each sale to them!  We hope to have it all ironed about to be able to make our first donation at end of February.

As always we offer Loyalty Rewards to our previous loyal SBA customers...  For each shirt that is purchased by a new customer who puts your name in the "Notes" section of Paypal, you will receive a gift certificate for $2.00 to be used towards any future SBA purchase! You can use them one at a time or save them up and get a free t-shirt! So make sure to tell you friends about where they can get their own cool SBA shirt!

Hope your day was 'Da Bomb!
Sue :P

2013- Day 32

Good morning SBA fans!!  We had a great day yesterday watching those Grape Grenade shirts come off the presses.... Here are the highlights...  It's a 3 color shirt on a great heathered purple tshirt blank. The tattoo roses and all the shading make the design POP off the shirt.  We also changed up the back bottle cap emblem to really focus on the shirt design and get SBA's name out there!  The bottle caps were awesome as usual.



Bob and I couldn't wait to try ours on...  Bob was a bit weird in his depiction of the shirt....

 
 
While I went more for the sweetie pie look with our 1950s Coca Cola machine as our backdrop...
 

While Presale is done and we are no longer offering Ladies, Youth or Custom sizes, you can still pick up this great shirt in unisex sizes Small, Medium, Large and XLarge via our store or by stopping by The Altered Bee from Thurs-Sat 10-5pm.

We are also very excited to use our new kraft gift boxes for delivery and because we have an eye for detail we even created a custom sticker to close the box...


We here at Soda Bomb Apparel are all about the experience you receive by ordering one of our shirts... From the kraft gift box with matching bottle cap sticker to the reusable logo cup made to look like a bomb with your shirt inside to the magnetic custom bottle caps to the full color logo stickers and let's not forget the individually signed thank you note from Bob!  And you get all of this for only $20 no extra costs, no hidden fees... Just freebies for you our loyal fans/customers!

Hope your day is 'Da Bomb!
Sue :P

2013- Day 30 Dr Molotov design ideas

Good news is that Grape Grenade will be available for the weekend! Preorders will go out as early as Friday!  We are excited to get these out to you and hope that you enjoy both the shirt and the new packaging!  These shirts will be available at The Altered Bee starting Friday and they are always available online at our store.

The next flavor to come in our 6 pack flavor set is Dr Molotov!  We have been researching designs and pictures and are looking at shirt color options.  We loved the imagery that comes with the Molotov cocktail, it obviously works great with the Soda Bomb feel.  





But the molotov was the easy part...  We now needed the Dr...  Who better to pay tribute to then our American soldiers who risk their lives daily to save the lives of others....  

Where we live there is a National Guard base not far from our home.  We have driven by it many times, and our sons have lovingly named the black hawk helicopter on display out front the "Army Doctor Helicopter".  It looks very similar to the one below...


Thus we have found the Dr part and so the Dr Molotov will have the militaristic feel of the Army Doctor Helicopter but also the dangerous and volatile feel of the molotov cocktail!  We will still have our vintage feel in there and of course the color we are looking at is called Army Green!

Something else we want to add is when we did the contest, for the 6th flavor in the 6 pack flavor set which got us Dr Molotov, the winner was Beau Chastain who is an American solider who was WIA (Wounded in Action) and is currently deployed, serving our country with the EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) of the Air Force.  We could not think of a better way to honor than to give the first Dr Molotov to him!  Thank you Beau for serving our country and being willing to give your life for us!


And don't forget we are doing new this year is that a portion of every shirt sold will be given to The Wounded Warrior Project!  It's SBA's way of making sure that these brave men and women don't get forgotten for the sacrifices they made for our freedom.

Keep checking back for updates on the design process and don't forget to check out The Altered Bee store in Bristol, NH where you will be able to find our First Edition, Our Lady, and Grape Grenade shirts!

Hope your day is 'Da Bomb!
