C7 Apparel
I wonder why there are so few items with the C7 logo. There are tons of items for the C6. I realize the C7 is newer, but after all it has been out about 2.5 years.
Vendors are losing sales every day, and with Christmas coming they are going to miss even more.
I've seen that GM is just slow to license C7 items, but it seems that is counter productive.
Any thoughts????

I got a Catalog yesterday from the CorvetteCollection.Com....it has NOTHING BUT C7 Officially Licensed apparel & Accessories. I never got this after I purchased my new C6 ....Maybe because I had a Museum Delivery...they passed on my info to this company. Anyway, it is full of c7 STUFF.

There are only a few manufacturers of licensed products. As opposed to resellers many. Same issue with H-D officially licensed products. The motor company has gotten extremely greedy over the years.

Most of the stuff is JUNK, I do not need a C7 Mouse, C7 Pens, C7 Briefcase, Running Shoes, Socks or a C7 Beer Glass, I would like to see much more useful and simpler things, like a CREW NECK Sweatshirt, without a hoodie, I am not a C7 gangster, or how about colored T-s (Beefy T's, cotton) with embroidered logos (stingray or flag SMALL) without a back logo the size of the entire back, in long and short sleeve. Just look at what is offered, T shirts with large stingrays and Corvette on the front, made of a thin cheap material which the size is one size smaller then what it states, so a large is really a medium. Most of the colors are boring black or grey. You can get some yellow or if luck you can find a red, but again the material is cheap mixture of rayon and whatever. How about cotton Beefy T's in assorted colors?
I am not running a marathon so I do not need Under Armor or NIKE brands, Polos in a cotton pique material is just fine, but how about more colors and offering the is Cutter Buck Cotton. not that nylon sweat free flimsy material. I wish they would have some good quality long sleeve T's, like the ones the Freestate Corvette Club had for this year at the Ocean City event, with just the small logo.
Fleeces are nice, but too boring, expensive, need more colors and variations.
Wish they would just keep it simple and not plaster the big logo on everything. To many accessories and not enough of the basic clothing items you can actually wear, feel good, and FIT with a true size, not the Continental or European sizes.

You hit the nail on the head with this post!! I agree with every comment you made.
Now, if we could only make your comments and ideas known to someone who could implement them.
