Threadless Summer Vacation Sale 2007!

Woohoo, it’s here! Join the Threadless crew on Summer Vacation this week! Enjoy 6 new and reprinted shirts every single day starting today, May 28 and ending on Sunday, June 3. All for discounted prices, all week!

And if that wasn't enough, we're launching two contests around our Wear In The World Vacation Map! Our team of experts has chosen 108 locations worldwide. All you have to do is take a photo of yourself in a Threadless shirt by one of the landmarks and submit it via our handy map! (Must be a new one! Old gallery photos don't count.) If we receive at least one photo from each location, the sale will be extended 24 hours, allowing a whole new batch of Monday shirts to be included in the fun. It's a contest that EVERYONE can enjoy! Everyone wins if we all participate!!! Go team!

But wait, there's more.

If you submit a gallery photo through our vacation map, you're immediately entered into the COOLER contest! One lucky participant will be chosen at random to win an amazing summer fun prize package. A 54 quart steel green Coleman cooler filled with: a Canon Powershot SD900 digital camera with additional 2GB SecureDigital memory card, 4 GB iPod Nano, Logitech mm50 portable ipod speaker system, Speedo Condor Xcel snorkel set, Original Wham-O world class frisbee, pirate beach towel, pair of original Blublocker sunglasses, and two bottles of Coppertone Sport 50 spf sunscreen lotion! Wow. Just, wow.

One last thing! If you're unable to get to any of the landmarks listed and you'd still like to enter the COOLER contest, we've added 5 "bonus" locations signified by the pushpins along the equator in the Pacific Ocean!

Have fun everybody! And on behalf of all of us here at Threadless, have a great week of SUMMER VACATION!

Well, whichever Threadless person put the map together is definitely on summer vacation and has forgotten all their geography because there are a LOT of errors on the map:



Petronas Towers are in Malaysia, not China

There are no Mexican monuments in Southeast Asia

Cristo Redentor is DEFINITELY not in the heart of Saudi Arabia

The Spire of Dublin isn't in the Netherlands

Loch Ness is not the North Sea and hopefully Belfast Castle and Hollyrood Abbey aren't at the bottom of it

The Sydney Opera House isn't off the coast of Japan



...and so on. :/

So I am sure that we are beating a dead horse, but what is with the lack of Canadian locations??? No Banff, no PEI, no Vancouver, no Montreal? even your American customers could pick up and drive to many major Canadian locations for a cool contest like this. I won't even get into the Canadian customers, as we never register on radar. We are the almighty invisible consumers!!! You will one day feel the wrath of maple syrup!

Any chance we could have a location request at the site of the legendary Hacienda in Manchester if you run this promo again next year?! :)

So has a pool formed yet on which will be the last location standing?



My STPs are on Mount Everest.



It will probably turn out to be something like Elkhorn Ghost Town or something though.

Aww, I went out yesterday and took a pic of myself in front of Charm City Cakes, so I could be entered in the contest, but now the contest's apparently over, even though it's not midnight central time. :(



I KNEW I should have uploaded the picture yesterday!
