BlueOranges.net's exclusive "T Bow®Tee" might just be the most unique way for fans to show their support. "Sales have been strong, especially lately", says Lori Evans the creator of the now famous "T Bow®" logo. BlueOranges.net offers the "T Bow®" logo on a variety of shirts for ladies, girls and toddlers. There are also "T Bow" buttons, hats, scarves, bumper stickers and even bracelets. "We sell a lot to Denver fans and of course the loyal Gators who have followed their favorite QB into the pros", she explains. Living in Gainesville, she certainly sees the support first hand. She has also seen the support in Denver by exhibiting at the annual Denver Home and Gift Show.
Evans' online t-shirt shop, BlueOranges.net, revamped their widely popular series of "T Bow®Tees" for Denver fans to show their support. Their best selling design lets ladies tell the world, "I Heart T Bow"®, with the letter T and a picture of a bow. Another simply shows a large letter T and the clever bow figure. Definitely for ladies…definitely for ladies who love Tebow…and there seems to be no shortage of those anytime soon.
UF alum and Blue Oranges owner, Lori Evans says, "It was exciting for Gator fans to follow our favorite quarterback into the pros. We just can't get enough of him!" When their shirts and buttons quickly became best sellers last football season, Evans knew she would carry her brand into the pros, wherever that took her.
About Blue Oranges
It all started with a sign…back in January 2009 at the BCS National Championship in Miami. "We were lucky enough to have front row seats, behind the Gator bench", said Evans. "I wanted to make a sign so our kids at home would see us on TV. My husband was embarrassed, but I did it anyway. I came up with my clever little I Heart T Bow®slogan and it was a big hit! I had people taking pictures and they even put me on the Jumbo-Tron 3 times! On our way home the next day, I decided to trademark it and form a small company."
Evans, an interior designer who co-owns a home building and design firm with her husband, certainly didn't have any experience in t-shirt design or sales. She worked over the next 8 months, with the start of the '09 football season as her target deadline. "It's been fun learning along the way" she says. Sales actually took her by surprise. "I put a tiny little ad on Facebook, really just to see how it worked, and I sold out of my entire inventory in 48 hours! I knew then I was on to something!"
