Moving forward.

Hello all, how have things been on your end?

Well, thanks for asking. Ever since I launched the Getaway Gorilla tee, OMUNKY has had steady sales. I understand the company is very new, but when you go from selling a couple of shirts a week to a few a day, its nice.

I have already finished the design of my October tee, and I have to say I am getting extremely happy with the direction this company and its clothing are going. This new shirt (no name yet) takes a lot of cues from the Getaway shirt in terms of style and presentation etc. It will also be printed on an organic cotton t-shirt, just like Gabe! I have decided to only print single color, transparent designs on the recycled cotton tees. Since this shirt will feature at least 2 colors, I have to go organic.

Also, I have set up an OMUNKY newsletter that I will use to tell everyone about new tees and promotions. If you have not subscribed to the mailing list you may do so here.

I would like to add another passage from 365 Ways To Save The Earth by Phillipe Bourseiller:


"Do not let the children play with water. It seems to us so natural that our taps deliver clean water that we assume it is a lifetime guarantee to everyone. This is not the case. Every morning, millions of people walk several miles to collect the water that is essential to meet their modest needs. The average African woman walks more than 3.5 miles per day to obtain water for her family-or the equivalent of a marathon every week" (5,22).

Well that is all for this post. Visit the website to check out our slight makeover! Peace!

New Tee and Women Sizes

Hello all. Just wanted to make a quick post to give you an update.


First off, we have a new OMUNKY Tee! World, meet Gabe the Getaway Gorilla:

"Gabe the Gorilla has had it! He is tired of being so low on the Ape totem-pole. All the other Gorillas get to eat before him, they are always making him do chores like sweeping the sleeping areas and cleaning up the leftover food. He is fed up with this!

So Gabe is leaving.

He is packing his favorite backpack and he is heading north to some magical place called Alaska, where there are no Gorillas around to tell him what to do. Gabe the Getaway Gorilla will be the Alpha Ape of Alaska. he just needs your help. Purchase a t-shirt so that Gabe can afford a bus ticket. He's getting tired of hitchhiking..."

This shirt is OMUNKY's first multi-colored tee, and it includes a cool looking OMUNKY logo on the left sleeve!
Also, thanks to many requests, I have included women sizes for the Getaway Gorilla shirt, as well as the OMUNKY brand shirt (now in a new ink color) and the Harry Hippo. Since they do not make recycled cotton shirts in ladies' cuts, I decided to go ahead and get them in Organic cotton. Please don't protest too much.
That is all for this post. Enjoy the new tees!
