Go to solution Solved by LinusTech,

The problem with the hoodiea was that we needed something like $50k up front to print them in reasonable way since they are not one-off items and also need somewhere to inventory them.

It was going to be a pretty involved project. So we really wanted to see the community behind it before investing even though in the long run I think it would actually be profitable for Linus Media Group.

It's possible it could still happen but for now it's on the back burner

So in the crowdfunding for the new office I saw that they were just shy of the LTT LAN hoody goal.
Would there be any way to still get this to work?
 

Welp

We've been over this. We didn't make the goal, we don't get the hoodies.

Honestly, they could start another fundraiser just to get the hoodies up and running. I would totally buy one, and a lot of others would too.

Too bad,
