With this blog post, the first of many 'Fantastic 4' posts, we’ll take a look at 4 designs that are available on ColdstreamKit in greater detail.


EVERY JOURNEY HAS A BEGINNING – CROW TRIBUTE DESIGN:

Firstly we have the ‘Crow’ design.  A tribute to all of us that have stepped through the gates of the Guards Depot, as crows, to leave as men a few months later.  We wanted to pay tribute in an amusing way that was different to others designs out there ................. hopefully it worked.


There is a version of this design for Pirbright, Caterham and a generic ‘Guards Depot’ design.

CHIN STRAP SOUP – SOME ANDY WARHOL INSPIRATION:

The British Army holds certain Values and Standards that are upheld by all that serve.  We wanted to take those 6 values and put them on a t-shirt, but not in the obvious way .............. because we like to be unique.
It was only when I was looking through some art sites that I saw a gallery of the Genius that is ‘Mr Andy Warhol’ and thought .......... “THAT’S IT!”.


Each can holds a ‘Value’ and from distance it would probably look just like any other ‘Can’ design – but on closer inspection you can see that those ‘Values’ are never far from your heart.

I CAN DO SCIENCE ME!

This was one CRAZY idea, honestly – absolutely crazy, and we reckon it will be a little like Marmite with some loving it, and others detesting it.  But that’s the whole idea of trying to create things different from the norm, you have to step out of your comfort zone.


We've taken Chemical Elements and Subatomic Particles, and laid them out to spell the Regimental Name, plus the Regimental Motto for each Regiment.

There’s a few ‘other’ elements in there so it won’t be too obvious at first glance, but on inspecting the design you will see the Regimental Name, the Regimental Motto and the last 2 elements on the bottom right are the formation of the Regiment (the values of each element together).

KEEP CALM AND FIX BAYONETS!

Again, this one of the first designs we made back in ‘Garment Vinyl’ days, but with DTG Print, this has allowed us to give the design a great revamp.


We have two versions available, one with the SA80/L85 Bayonet and one with the SLR Bayonet, for those familiar with the ‘Elephant Gun’.

We also have this design available on mugs.
