Stay Vocal

Online Store Overhaul: 300+ New Items

(10.03.08) To get ourselves prepared for the upcoming San Francisco Green Festival, we have been very busy creating hundreds of new ReUse items, most of which are unique or one of a kind pieces. But instead of waiting until November to unveil our new creations, we’ve decided to offer some of them first to the STAY VOCAL community in our newly revamped online store.

Most recently, we have been working hard to expand the ReUse clothing line. From basic logo t-shirts to band merchandise to intricate pieces of wearable art, there is certainly ReUse clothing for all styles, tastes, and age groups. And it’s not just t-shirts anymore. We’ve got hats, sweatshirts, sweaters, skirts, and even some our first pairs of ReUse pants.

Unfortunately, we can’t talk about all of the items we’ve been making, as there are literally over 300 of them right now, with new items being added on a daily basis. But we’ll focus on some of our favorites.

One of our new lines of t-shirts is surely something enjoyable for anyone from anywhere. STAY VOCAL “Local” T-Shirts feature our Make Yourself Heard Face Logo strategically placed on a t-shirt from a specific location. The ReUse New Orleans shirt is one of our favorites.

Maybe you’re interested in creating your own ReUse shirt, though. That’s where our “What Do You Do” Series comes in. These shirts give you a chance to make yourself heard by providing a blank line for you to write in how you make the world better.

One of our more experimental new items, the brainchild of owner Alex Eaves, is our new “Inside Out REUSE! Huge Font” Series. How do you reuse a piece of paper? You flip it over and use the other side. Well that’s essentially what we’ve done with these t-shirts. All of these shirts have been flipped inside out and printed on the opposite side.

If you’re not a t-shirt wearing person or your job calls for something else, don’t worry. We’ve got you covered. Whether you work in a gas station, hospital, or an office, there’s a ReUse clothing item for you.

In addition to our clothing line, we’re also showcasing some of our truly one of a kind creations like tote bags and journals, made from all sorts of materials.

Thanks to our friend Kyle, the STAY VOCAL online store recently received a big upgrade. The clothing section is now broken up into three sections: men, women, and youth. We have also separated our T-Shirts into a few different categories so that you know which ones are unique and which ones are not.

Here at STAY VOCAL, we’re very excited about the progress we’re making in creating quality ReUse products. With each item we sell, we’re not only keeping materials out of the landfills, but we’re also saving energy and materials that would be used to make new products. More importantly, we’re inspiring new ideas for positive change.

STAY VOCAL is certainly not alone in spreading the ReUse movement. A lot of people have been doing a lot of things to help us as of late. We owe a big thanks to Alyssa D’Amico, Becki Crouse, Brianne Epley, Eric Guntor, Erin Dacayanan, Goodwin Graphics, Joan Eaves, John Babson, Julie Tremonte, Ken Eaves, and Tori Babson.
