So it's been a while since i've last done any apparel for the 914 community.

So today i was chatting with Sendjonathanmail and he was like "you should so do a hoodie since most of the us are freezing our butts off this winter and could use some type of 914 winter apparel". He suggested a hoodie. So after some brainstorming i came up with the UNIVERSITY OF NINE-FOURTEEN hoodie idea. The whole idea collaborates our community's knowledge of the 914 and everyone of us is a student or professor to the University. Here's the design:

(please contribute any changes or color suggestions) Thanks!




As far has price goes i have not looked into it yet. But if i get enough interest i'll go to my previous printer to get a quote.

throw out some ideas or a similar design you want me to emulate.

Daniel,
Did you ever look into doing the semi long sleeve shirts again (baseball practice jersey style)?

I was thinking of doing a game jersey. Similar to the Dodger's button up white w/ blue pin striped shirt. And picture the Porsche914 script i used for the orange baseball shirt on there, but in blue n white. Lemme see if i can photoshop my idea really quick.

Could the hoodies be a different color, like an athletic grey? If so, count me in!!!

i could do that. More..more ideas.

I'm a university dropout ...

Andy

no you're not...you're an alumni!

Hey Dan, nice idea. Im interested in whatever color you guys decide on, just dont make it anything too funky

Most folks will probably think its a drug reference.
Zach

Across the bottom, with the inverse arc of "University" add "School of Hard Knocks"

this may be a dumb question, but how is that a drug reference?

Are you going off the 4-20 idea?

^^^
Yup.
Most people will think of Mary Jane before they think of odd sports cars from the 70s. Its the first thing that came to my mind, and I knew what it was supposed to mean (and I don't even smoke).

Zach

What kind of hoodie. Looks kinds thin like an 8 ouncer.
Myself I like the heavy 12 oz hoodies.

Sendjonathanmail - thanks buddy, got any suggestions?

Vacca Rabite - i could always add an image of a 914 below the NINE-FOURTEEN.

736conver - as far as the hoodie goes, that image i just pulled off of google and pasted on my design. so i haven't decided on a weight. i personally prefer a thick one, since i feel ripped off if it's a thin hoodie that won't keep you warm.

9146986 - so add a downwards arc saying "School of hard knocks" completing a full circle?

Some ideas:

School of Kurven;

Masters Degree in NARP; minor in temporary elevated structures;

PHD in Unlimited Modification Possibilities

Masters in PORPO (pissing off "real" porsche owners)

Real Porsches are Air Cooled

Just some quickies that came to mind...

I like Real Porsche's are Air Cooled the most.

you could put the picture of the 914 underneath nine-fourteen and then that quote on the back, or something of that nature.

Awesome ideas, i could use the old 914 design from the previous green shirt i made. And put a quote on the reverse side across the shoulder blades. The quote should be 914 specific, but i do like the "Real Porsche's are Air Cooled". The font would either be a bold lettering or a script.

I like that idea. Maybe just a silhouette of the 914? But if it's going to be an accurate portrayal of the people on this board, shouldn't you misspell "NINE FORTIEN"? ; Or maybe spell nine-fourteen in german?

Maybe under the........ nine fourteen
1 its a n.a.r.p thing
2 its an aircooled thing
3 dont even ask
4 dont get me started
5 jackstands 101
6 money buys speed
7 piss`n off nine 11s one car at a time
8 property of 70-76
9 some 4s few6s
10 what corner


just wait there will be more soon

11 No its not a damn drug reference...
12 Whaccha got?

I like all the ideas! " Real Porsches are Air Cooled" on the back with a

silhouette of a 914. Also howabout the 12 oz. and big sizes 3 x , for the portly

members here. Dave

914 done in the correct font, instead of spelling it out; and the sillouette accross the back

Yea, that was my .02

i was thinking of using this old silhouette i used for a previous t-shirt and below a quote that says "The Road Is Our Classroom".

Dan dude I really like that idea. I like the 914 with the script on the back, big enough to see. Its simple yet makes a statement.

What about leaving the front as originally designed with "University of Nine-Fourteen" and then a quote on the back at the top of the hoodie and then the 914 image underneath the quote in the middle of the back

What script? So no "The Road Is Our Classroom" in a bold or cursive font? Along with the old green shirt silhouette.

Keep it simple. It's starting to sound pretty cluttered...

I like the idea of "914" being in numerals (rather than spelled out) and in 914-script. Also, how about "Class of XX" (XX = 70 - 76) on the back to indicate the year model the wearer owns? Would that much inventory be tough for you to manage?

If so, maybe there's a jacket idea here with additional patches available to indicate year, type of engine, etc...?

Im saying I definetly like the 914 logo that you used on the green shirt and I think that it would look great on the back of a hoody. If you were to use "the road is our classroom" I think it would greatly depend on what font you used.

#13 have tools will travel....lmao

Love the jackstands!!!!!!

I might just do that...lol it could be our Mascot.

How's this?



OR

For the color of the sweater and print we can decide on that when it comes to it. Right now i wanna complete the concept of the design first.

I like the second one....in zipper hoodie of course!

I always thought that the idea of a vented mesh back (or as they refer to it as vented yoke) with the porsche silk screened on it would look pretty cool? Similar to a golf jacket idea (air cooled)

Any tought on that?

second one, add the jackstands though!!

i would take a couple in a pull over style hoodie....

Gotta have the jackstands.

Kind of torn btw "the road is our classroom" and "real porsche's are air-cooled"

very slick looking!!!

I vote for number two as well and also in a pull-over (hoodie or not). Also --grammatically speaking -- no quotes are needed, and I think they take the "punch" out of the words. Good job!

Love the "Real Porsches are aircooled".

Definitely like the 914 monotone sillohette too.

hope to see some sweaters colors based off the paint code charts.

I'm not the number one fan of the university stuff. Prefer porsche fonts.

n'uff said.

The thing with using "Real Porsche's are Air Cooled" is the whole copyright infringement issue. I don't wanna have any issues with using Porsche in the porsche font.

How about "Wearing out Jackstands Since 1970"

I like all the ideas so far, especially the 914 silouhette.

Whatever you come up with, I will take 2.

John

would anyone happen to have a copy of Photoshop? i don't have PS installed on my laptop and i only have it on the desktop. Would be nice to work on this project from the comfort of my laptop.

The first one has a nice classy look to it. Very creative.

Ahh right. Sorry bout that.

Ok putting writers cap on... thinking.. thinking.. how about:

"Air Cooled Mid-Engine Madness"

or

"Air Cooled Mid- Engine Vroom Vroom"

or here we go....

"Performance Optimized Rally Super Car Hillclimber Extreme 914"
