This is not a test. We repeat: this is not a test! The Speed chasers shop is finally back and we’ve already loaded it with the merchandise you’ve been asking for all this time…
We’re talking T-shirts, hoodies, stickers and tote bags, to name a few. In recent years we’ve dropped collaborations with the likes of Renown and Earnest – both of which we’re extremely proud of – but we have a dedicated Speed chasers shop for the merchandise you most wanted.
To celebrate the return of our store, we decided to kick things off with a modern twist on a Speed chasers classic: the OG 55SHズ collection, also known as Go-Go speed chasers! We’ve also added a range of OG badges for those who just want a straight Speed chasers logo.
Before we get into the details of the merchandise, we have more news coming in the next 24 hours: a new one Speed chasers Look. Consider it one Speedhunters: Dark Mode renew. While we know it won’t appeal to everyone at first, there are a few key reasons behind the refresh that’s designed to make your user experience easier than ever before.
First and foremost, mobile compatibility. For more than a decade, the Speed chasers site has used a custom skin within the WordPress framework, which has worked brilliantly. But a lot has changed in that time, not least the way we look at it now Speed chasers.
Smartphones. We all have smartphones, and while the old site on your phone wasn’t bad, it often felt clunky or took a while to load – something the new design has addressed and (hopefully) remedied.
Secondly, we are making the leap to a true CMS that will give us much more control and flexibility when implementing new features in the future. We’ll keep the blog-like long view that we firmly believe is true Speed chasers excels, it is only simplified to make navigation and management easier.
We’ll get into that in more detail later, but now for the really juicy stuff: Speed chasers official merchandise. To kick off the OG 55SHズ collection, we’ve bundled together T-shirts, hoodies, hats, tote bags and stickers, all in a range of colours, fits and sizes.
Our flagship OG 55SHズ T-shirts are all made from heavyweight 7.5oz (250GSM) cotton and designed with an oversized fit – please keep that in mind when choosing your size. There are two colors available priced at €44.99 each – limo black and off-white – but if the 55SHズ isn’t your style, we’ve still got something for you…
Sitting next to the OG 55SHズ is the OG Badge Collection – a simplified design that uses the Speed chasers logo in the same fit and quality, only with the addition of navy blue as a color scheme in addition to limo black and off-white.
What about hoodies? Each design is made from heavyweight 9.7oz (330GSM) fabric with a generous fit, complete with a fleece-lined hood, nickel eyelets and a cotton braided drawstring.
Like the T-shirts above, you have the beauty of two different options – OG 55SHズ and OG Badge – both of which offer a range of fits and colours, including navy blue, limo black and off-white, all priced at US$69.99 per piece.
Show me the stickers! If you’ve been to Etsy, you’d assume Speed chasers stickers have been available all this time, but the only official items you can get are exclusive to the Speed chasers shop.
Whether for your laptop, office or car, you can choose from a medium or large sticker set in different colors. Guess what, these are also available in OG 55SHズ and OG Badge designs, perfect to match the rest of your purchase…
Sold! What else should we know? The good news is that all items in the store are priced including shipping. The bad news? At this time, we can only ship within the US for this first collection.
But before you start pounding the keyboard in frustration, this is just it First collection of merchandise drops, and we have many more planned in the coming weeks and months. We ensure that you stay informed everywhere Speed chasers website and social channels.
One last thing to keep in mind; any of these collections will do that only are available for a limited time via pre-order on the Speed chasers store (unless sold out). Once the offer ends, all products will ship within 3-4 weeks, in case you’re wondering where your orders are.
This is our first collection in a long time, so we’d love to hear your feedback about it so we know what you’d like to see in the follow-up collections. It won’t be without compromises, but it’s a huge step in the right direction and we can’t wait to see what you all think. Oh, and once you’ve packed up your merch, take a few photos and tag us on Instagram – @TheSpeedhunters – we’d like to see where it ends up.
