FOLLOWUP: Contest-winning West Seattle Bridge T-shirts have arrived!

(WSB photos)

In The Junction today, volunteers are working – at a safe distance – to package the new contest-winning West Seattle Bridge T-shirts for mailing to everybody who ordered one! The orders followed the announcement four weeks ago of the three designs that won the community vote, “Accidental Island,” “Mind the Gap,” and “So Close Yet So Far.”

Above, Junction Association executive director Lora Radford is among those helping. So if you ordered one, watch the mail! And if you didn’t …

… no need to worry about a “gap” in being stylish – as originally announced, some Junction stores will be selling them, too, starting tomorrow. See the list on this page – or go there to order one (deadline September 21st for an October mailing).

    These are great, but is there a way to connect me to the designer (Alyssa?) who made the “East Vashon” graphic? I’d like a shirt and/or sticker made from that one. Thanks!

    Glad they finally put the t-shirt brands on the website. It’s so much easier to check the closet for other t-shirts of the same brand for sizing than trying to guess and find out they run small/big as seems to be the case with indie printed shirts. Will happily order now!

    I can t believe that not one of these three designs were in my top picks. Did this happen to anyone else? And yes is it possible to contact the designer of the ones that didn’t make it into the top three to see if they are interested in making a few anyway???? I guess I’m kind of amazed that these were the top three.

      I agree, but I don’t dislike any of the the top 3.

        Funny, because 2 out of my top 3 were chosen. And frankly it is all about fundraising for local businesses…so buy one and give it as a gift!

    Is there an update on sales in person?  Did they actually start?  Stopped by one of the stores where they are supposedly being sold and saw nothing.  The list that was to be updated of who is selling them has remained the same these past weeks.

      Friday is what Lora told us, and her office maintains the Junction website, so that’s all we have. Keeping radar up for any individual store mentions…

        From a Junction note today, ” So far, there’s five businesses who are selling the T-Shirts: Capers, West 5, Phoenecia, Wild Rose’s, Alair (between us and the Admiral District), and Click!.”

    • JC September 5, 2020 (5:28 pm)

      We know that at least Click! and Capers do have them as of Saturday. Click! had the Mind the Gap only women’s medium but had the other designs. Capers had Mind the Gap in the other sizes (as well as the other designs). We got what we needed there, so don’t know about the other shops listed. I’m with those who want to connect with the other tshirt designers! I was really hoping for Sasquatch and his umbrella closing the bridge gap. :)
