ALWAYS BET ON BLACK!
This is a t-shirt that’s just for us – the TDUB CLUB! With our LOVE for t-shirts, you think we would have made one for us already! We are super picky about t-shirts due to our past work in the garment industry, way before the TDUB Club was a thing. We first had to find a screen printer of our liking out east and now we are pushing forward with our very first t-shirt for all you Yamaha TW200 enthusiasts! And we are doing it on a nice premium t-shirt + with a premium printing method to make the “feel” of the shirt feel like there is no print at all on it!
Good Ol’ Black T-Shirt with a new twist!
We are all adults here, right? We are using the Gildan Hammer Adult T-shirts for our very first TDUB Club T-shirt! Adults? HA! This is Gildan’s brand new tee, the Hammer tee and is the softest of soft in a great classic fit! The softness comes from the 6oz 100% combed ringspun cotton that is on par with the softness of high-end fashion brands. We may be able to agree that our TW200’s are basically from 1987, but that doesn’t mean our t-shirts have to be from 1987 too!

THE DESIGN
Twist is what we do! With the hand-drawn original Yamaha TDUB Club logo, I added a twist. Simply slapping a big white logo on a black t-shirt is just out of the question! I don’t like black shirts with traditional heavy white ink overlay, so I sought out this old screen printing method and to move discovery, it has been updated and perfected!
But I also wanted to add a little flavor, so our very on Rodney “GCRad1” Wills added more hand-style in the form of a texture to the background. The texture itself is of my making and is called “WoodRain” as it’s part “wood grain” and part rain drop camouflage treatment. By adding this texture to the background, it breaks up the surface of what would be solid color. I’m traditionally not a solid color guy – I LOVE TEXTURE! And all of us that make up the Yamaha TDUB Club bring collectively a lot of texture to this group!
SMASHUP: Wood Grain & Rain Drop Camouflage
I like making my own textures and this one is called “WoodRain” as its a smashup between a wood grain texture and the rain drop camouflage pattern. At least that is what I am claiming as such, and since I am the artist drawing it, that was my inspiration points. Here is a little video of the pen in hand making movement across the page: https://www.instagram.com/p/COTmAMNHW2n/
First Texture – Then Logo Adaptation
While it looks like a two-color design here, it will be a one color design on the t-shirt, a black t-shirt and the logo will be the absence of black color…

Black / Gray – TW200 Pantone Color Test
In celebration of the 2021 TW200 colorway of black-gray-charcoal, we are following suit as this is probably the best looking TDUB to date!
Everything has to have music!
Once you’ve placed your order (don’t wait & accidentally time out on your order!), but afterwards come back here and hit this link “Gray – Shades Of… featuring Jean Michel Basquiat” and by the time you decipher and figure this record out, the t-shirts might be here and soon in your mailbox! technically, we should have shirts start mailing out 16-days after our 2-week pre-order.
This one is a wildcard as I simply typed “t-shirt song” and this came up:
