YOU OUGHTA KNOW!
SWEET NEW MERCH
We are going to be getting in some dope AF flannels in a few weeks! In order to ensure that we order enough for employees, we will have a pre-sale going on so we can approximate how many we’ll need in addition to the ones we’ll offer publicly. You’ll still be allowed to buy them once they are in-house, however if you are interested please pre-order so we have an idea of how many to get! Also by pre-ordering, you will receive the shirt at cost, so considerably cheaper than if you waited until they were in-house!
There str both unisex and women’s cuts, and they will come in two colors (heather grey and charcoal grey).
You can pre-order on the employee store (password: thefablab). Pre-orders need to be submitted by Sunday night (12/15). Please reach out to Seth with any questions!
