    I am heading to my local American Apparel as we speak. I'll grab whatever I can and post when I get home. There's also an embroidery company near my house, will there be any interest in having the MI6 logo embroidered on the left chest?

    Managed to snag all they had, which wasn't very much.

    1 small, 1 medium, 2 large, and 1 XL, all in Navy
    They were $9 each after tax

    I managed to snag a few size Larges in SA Navy from the store near me. That's the only size they had available and the only color left. They were marked down but they weren't $6. They were 40% off sticker price of $28.00, plus tax. Not sure how the OP did his math. But still a good deal, and the last chance to get one before the company goes out of business for good. If anyone is after a size Large, please PM me.

    Kind regards,
    Craig

    Many thanks Craig, the shirt safely arrived with me this side of the pond, thanks for your help in getting this to me! Kind regards Paul

    Alrighty, I've been getting alot of PM's for the shirts. I have no issues shipping internationally as long as the buyer covers the cost. Also, I'd like to give priority to buyers that might want the MI6 crest embroidered on the shirt. Having all 5 shirts done would be more cost effective than just 1 or 2.

    Example: The shirts are $9 + Setup fee (let's just say $25)+ the embroidery (let's say $10 a shirt) the total would be $24 a shirt.

    But if the cost seems to excessive and we keep them plain, I'll go by who PM'd me chronologically, but only 1 per person...gotta spread the love lol. I'm not trying to make any money off these, just getting them to who needs them.

    Hopefully the embroidery works out, it would be a great addition to the shirts! I'm sure there's a few members on here that would be able to provide accurate images/measurements for the logo

    Yes! If anyone has a vector image or high resolution photos, it would be greatly appreciated

    I've got some HiRes images of the real life SIS/MI6 one, but the logos on the top and jacket in Skyfall (and probably elsewhere in the films) aren't the real life one, as can be seen on those propstore photos earlier in this thread.

    I believe a member here (i can't remember who exactly) provided the image to JSC that they've used on their range of clothing so that might be useful again. I've got an image of that logo but I'm not sure if it's able to be posted for use seeing as it's someone's creation that is also now being used on items sold by a company??

    That is a dilemma, any idea what the original post with the image was under? I have the JSC PT jacket and don't want to step on any toes, but want to be as screen accurate as possible

    BCFDRay, I see you are in Maryland which makes us practically neighbors...not to complicate things further but if you are doing a run of accurate embroidery would you allow me to send you some of my AA shirts to have done? Been looking to get mine embroidered and no point in redundancy...of course I would compensate.

    Be prepared to spend some time and funds.
    There is no such a photo with actual logo! It's not real MI6 logo,and JSC LOGO IS ABSOLUTELLY DIFFERENT. So you will have to recreate it.
    I currently spent 2weeks and around £150 on my SAMPLE logo,working closely with digitisers,and still is not as I would wish that logo to look. But I'm close

    Out of curiosity, has anyone cleared out the Atlanta store yet? Asking before I make a 250 mile treck.

    I'd definitely make a call to the store first to check stock before you make a treck of that magnitude!

    Alrighty, I called Permastiches today and received the price quotes. The setup fee with free digitizing is between $15-25, and the actual embroidery cost would be estimated $10 per shirt.

    $9 for the AA shirt + $10 (estimate) for embroidery + $5 setup fee, brings us to $24 per shirt. Of course that just the estimate and they'd like to see the shirts first.

    I still have a medium if anyone needs it.

    The embroidery is going to take a bit so I'm just sending them plain for now

    Hi all, I picked up an XS in the correct colour blue in Florida last month, the last one left in three AA stores I visited - before I stick it on eBay, is anyone here interested? (selling at cost, about £10 + postage).
