That would be a sharp look, Jason. I may have to go back into Photoshop and play later.

First Thoughts:

"Yay Burpees"

"Rx'd"

"1-1-1-1-1-1-1"

"WODs
OHS
SDHP
HPC
C&J"

(That last one, those are just the first acronyms that came to mind, I'm sure you and Mandy can fill in more/sub out better ones.)

Mandi said...

I like it Laura...."Yay Burpees"!

Steve H said...

I like Jason's idea of the smaller logo on the front left chest. Maybe that in addition to our location. If you wanted to be more simple we could go with "C.F.D. Columbia, MD" on two lines then have the big logo on the back with a good quote.

Steve H said...

One thought on a possible quote, "What's your Fran?"

Cameron said...

Too strange, I left a long comment and it disappeared.

Briefly, I like the logo on the front left. As for the back, "Yay Burpees!" is good on top of the larger logo. You could also place Columbia, MD underneath the logo.

What kind of shirts are these? The material from my Operation Phoenix shirt is awesome and I would definitely pay more for a better quality cotton t-shirt!

Front squat load @ lifetime Alpharetta, GA.

155-175-185-195-205 (2x fail) - 200 (PR)

Steve H said...

quote ideas:

"The only easy day was yesterday" USN Seal motto.

"Pushing your limits daily"

"Our warmup is your workout"

Steve H said...

One more q from me:

"Setting PR's daily"

Cameron said...

"3-2-1-GO!"

I think the idea behind all of mine is that they are terms we see every day in crossfit and have meaning to us, but to an outsider would seem random, if not downright bizarre.
Seriously, a year ago, if i had seen a person with a shirt that read "1-1-1-1-1-1-1" my first thought would have been "Huh? Is this related to the bug that couldn't count on Pinwheel?"
Now of course, I see 1-1-1-1-1-1 and I think "Yay! Easy Day!"

Cameron said...

Jason,
I love the physics equations!

Please integrate this into a Crossfit Diesel shirt, even if it is a completely new design with the diesel logo on the front and this on the back in big letters!!

Here are a few others to add to Jason's list:

F=M*A
W=M*A*D/T
Power=CrossFit Diesel

Cameron said...

Worked out at home tonight with very tight legs and sore abs. Yesterday's double WOD left me stiff!

135-145-155-165-175

I'm pretty sure this is a PR, but I have forgotten what my last #'s looked like.

maggie said...

my personal favorite crossfit quote is "look better naked"

i like the really hardcore looking shirts too, maybe add a picture of pukie with a quote under it on the back or something. but like cameron said, i would def pay more money for better quality fabric!

Mandi said...

Great comments everyone! Yes, we want to have a nice quality shirt.......eco friendly, good texture and comfortable to wear.

Here are some additional logo's we have been contemplating.

"we don't use machines, we make them"

Can you fill in the blank on this one???

"better than ______, and faster too"

Cameron said...

I definitely like Maggie's quote. Always a winner!

Mandi,
If you put "We don't use machines" above the logo and "we make them!" on the bottom of the logo it would look great.

Cameron said...

Just checked...a PR by 15#'s! Not bad for only 5 weeks of CrossFit Diesel training since the last front squat attempt. I hope my lifting keeps climbing at this fast rate!

Steve H said...

Cam I agree. Since starting CF, I just netted at 20 lb gain in front sq. Gotta love progress!
