I ordered the mens long
I ordered the mens long sleeve shirt in size large. I wanted the long sleeve as I don't have many. My intentions were to wear it casually outside of running. Figured I'd push the group since I seem to be the only BF runner in the county. I label myself as a barefoot advocate rather then a BF runner. Seems a lot of people like to run so I figured this would be a easy way to expose my bare feet to others, and show running can be done safely.
I've never used zazzle in the past. My post was to just bring to your attention the situation. I'm not really sure how the relationship between zazzle, and BRS works. If zazzle keeps shirt stock, or if BRS has to keep up with it etc. I placed a order on Jan 1 using a new years promotion code I saw on this site I believe. On the 4th of Jan zazzle emailed me saying the long sleeve was not in stock, and it would be in stock in another week. At the time I was happy to wait. They asked if I wanted another shirt style, and I did not want another style. As of the 17th the shirt was still not in stock so I canceled the order since they could not seem to fill the order. They also charged my credit card on Jan 1 rather then when order shipped.
I wanted a bare foot style shirt for end of this month. As I'm doing my first organized
run, and plan to do it BF. I've been playing phone tag, but local NBC wants to interview me and they read my blog. I thought I could have a fun shirt for the interview. It was also important to me to have the personalized lettering that I submitted for the back side -
Barefeet are safe, healthy and very happy ! Building a healthier society.
Due to the obvious difficulty for the shirt to be stocked. I choose to just order another
shirt. So as of now I'm not interested in buying another shirt. Basically just wanted to convey zazzle is not keeping shirts in stock. So for now I resolved the problem with a order placed elsewhere. I guess the only downside is BRS won't get the publicity from the shirt at the scheduled event I'm doing in 11 days, or wearing it casually around town. Maybe I'll reconsider sometime down the road. For now zazzle just could not fill my order even though I placed order well in advance before event. It's only a shirt. I'll make due with the other shirt. Again just wanted to pass on the info. I never have done business with zazzle before. Seems selling shirts is normal business for them. Just dissapointed it is taking them so long to restock such a common item. Like I said I'll get by with another shirt for now. I don't want to pay for a BRS shirt without the personalized lettering on back. I prefer the full experience. For now not a big deal. Thanks.......
