For those wishing to have a KERN zip-up, I’ll warn you that they’re a snug fit. I love it though.

No adjustable tracking, eh?

Well, I have a mens large, and it’s fits like a glove but I’m fairly tall and slender.

Your shipping agent (Fedex, UPS, DHL, whomever) can handle customs clearances at both ends. Might cost a little extra, but it’s worth it not to have the hassle. You (the shipper) still have to do any commercial invoices, export declarations, and certificates of origin, though. And don’t forget those ITAR and USML forms and statements for the really good stuff.

Fedex ancillary clearance services

Hey, why not. Everyone knows

Hey, why not. Everyone knows that businesses will do anything that is requested in a web petition.

we need to see a picture ;-)

Making your own is all well

Endre Berentzen — Mon, 10 Sep 2007 05:37:39 -0700

Making your own is all well and good but I think it’s a matter of respect for the creator to buy the original;-)

Kern isn’t that a city in Germany;-) lol

Not to disrespect Veer,

Not to disrespect Veer, because their stuff is so worth the money, but I made my own KERN sweatshirt for $4.00 ... a dollar a letter, ironed on to my favorite zipper hoodie.

Somebody asked me where Kern was just last week. :)

Joe; I’d gladly pay an extra 20 to get the stuff shipped and I think a lot of people are with me on this. How about I order Veer stuff with my Typophile order;-)lol

Joe Pemberton — Sun, 9 Sep 2007 21:56:20 -0700

Having made the decision to ship Typophile gear outside the US (since 40% of users are not in the US) I can understand Veer’s decision. It is a) very expensive and b) hard to automate. When we ship gear it means somebody actually has to wait in line at a Post Office to fill out a customs claim form.

So, ahem, buy some Typophile gear and we’ll ship it to you no matter where you are... just don’t be shocked if a $22 shirt costs $13+ USD to ship.

I’d love to oder some Veer

I’d love to oder some Veer stuff, so I’m in!

Petition to make Veer merch available to people outside the US

Endre Berentzen — Fri, 7 Sep 2007 14:23:26 -0700

Veer has some really nice merch like their Kern zip up which I’d love to purchase. However Veer’s merch products cannot be shipped outside of North America.

Anyone else feel the same way?

Please sign the petition then maybe Veer will do something about it;-)
