Wow. Where to even start with this...
Side note first: I'm so confused as to what on earth this has to do with knee highs under mesh sleeves??? (The post you quoted as your jumping off point)
But anyway...interesting business plan. "My customers' opinions mean nothing to me!" :rolleyes:
So, parents saying "Ugh. Mesh sleeves are awful - they rip very easily and there is no way to get 2 seasons out of them" is not useful information to you? No, parents should not be telling you how your logo should look or what your colors should be. But when you say gym owners have invested their own time and money into their business, you may want to remember that you've also invested MY time and money into it as well. I wouldn't leave because of a T-shirt design, but I would most certainly leave because of an owner thinking I should just blindly spend thousands of dollars on their dream.
Again, not saying the parents should design uniforms. Just saying opinions about them could be useful, and something you (as someone who is neither paying for nor wearing it) may not have thought of.
But this does help explain why there are so many disastrous uniforms running around - we always ask "Why didn't anyone stop this before it made it to the mat?" I guess it's because when someone tried to say "that's a disaster", they were told to shut up and write their checks. :rolleyes:

thanks for saying my response in a nice way. i typed out a response and then deleted it because it was too snarky/mean. "i don't care that its your child, it's MY brand" is not the way to run a business. it may work now, but good luck in the long run.
