In for the limit of two...as long as the website crashes at least three times while trying to place the order. :D

The mule would have to clench a Mule Team between its teeth :thinking

Also, there would be a Spyderco logo above it :bug-red

Alex, that's a tight shirt! ;)

Would love a MT shirt that has all the dimensions in exploded view style. Might as well make a work/shop mat to go along with it.

I would be interested in at least 1.
It would be funny if the mule was kicking some a$$ or maybe that is not appropriate. :thinking

I’d entertain one or two, depending on artwork.

Well, there could multiple designs. I was thinking of something simple and not being “Official” Spyderco gear (yet) the words “Mule Team” with a mule beneath with no other connection to Spyderco but an official Spyderco shirt with the logo would be cool. I am sure people would love to show their Mule Team pride and pick them up with their purchase of a mule. There could be a graphic art of a mule with a knife with some easter eggs inside jokes in the artwork. I just don’t want to taint Spyderco with some fan art tee shirt with their logo and someone getting offended at Spyderco that is a class act. I can envision a mule blank with the mule team logo as an official shirt. I am open to input and ideas. I thought this could be a fun project. I do like to inject humor. Something like beating your knife like a rented mule etcetera.

Well said fireman . My only proposal that the year the first Mule came out should be recognized. In otherwords Established and the year . Maybe a sports type team flavor ? Just throwing stuff out here . It would be fantastic to have approved by Spyderco. Yes I would buy one . MG2

I'd love to buy one that was like a concert tour style t-shirt with all the steels and representative numbers and years on the back from previous MTs. I'm just not sure if there would be issues with trademarks from the steel companies, etc.

Currently have this shirt, but would absolutely add a MT one to my wardrobe too :cheap-sunglasses

My thinking is that mules (the animal) are not particularly visually appealing, so I'd make mules that appear rather inconspicuous, and the shape of the knife itself, conspicuous. I could resubmit that hearaldry logo we were considering for the MNOSD, but with mule (animals) and mule blades. It's ornate, which might be off-putting to some, but at least we can start the submission process. There are better artists on this board than me (I've seen 'em!). And maybe even a photographic treatment would work. Let's see what folks come up with.

That would look great embroidered on a pocket of a t-shirt!
