>>14186562And what you have provided is the rationale for a company that is printing thousands of each shirt at a time, and making 30+ designs available at each show. AEW is not doing that. They're not getting shirts shipped in from China, they're getting them from a few states away and/or drop-shipped.
When you are zesty (read: not autistic) like me, you enjoy having shirts that aren't all white, black or grey. I have athletic shirts that are red, orange, dark blue, baby blue, forest green, purple, lots of colors -- and I can dig deep into my shoe closet to wear something that matches. I don't have a closet full of orange or turquoise pants/hats/socks, because that would be ridiculous, but Basketball shoes aren't good for jogging, Jogging shoes aren't good for squatting, and so on. I don't need 3 pairs of black jogging shoes or gray flat/skate shoes - at a certain point, I'm going to get red/blue/yellow and then other colors.
"Fruity Pebbles", sure thing. I'm not the one getting roasted every other week for having a poor merchandise quantity and selection at live shows. Nothing will change if you don't try anything new.
>There's not that much demand for other other colorsYou will excuse the smarminess, but....there's not that much demand for 20 minute TV matches, yet here we are. If AEW's modus operandi is to service fans over shareholders, then you would think that philosophy would extend to their merchandise as well.
Nobody here is expecting AEW to stock 500 Orange Wardlow polyester stringers at every show. I'm merely pointing out that it makes little sense to only print on demand AND not bring giant stacks of merchandise to shows AND decline to offer different color/cut/composition options. It's a constellation of options that doesn't make logical sense when the goal is allowing fans the freedom and flexibility to get their hands on AEW gear of their choosing, not mass-consumption, one-size-fits-all goyslop.
