You Spoke, We Listened
Hi all. We’d like to announce that we’ve heard your requests and as a result, soon we will be offering larger sizes for the t-shirts in the Mozilla Store. We have some inventory limitations that prevent us from carrying every requested size, but starting around September 20th we’ll carrying XXL men’s shirts and XL women’s shirts.
We’ll also be adding a couple of old favorites back to our t-shirt lineup soon, so stay tuned for more details about that.
Thanks!
Update 9/27/07: There was a slight delay in getting these shirts into our vendor’s inventory system, but they’re now available for purchase. Thanks for your patience.

At first I thought, “Well… it’s a small step in the right direction.” Then I contemplated “inventory limitations.” With services such as CafePress, how can you justify not having ANY size available? If you want/have to charge more for very small & very large sizes then do so; but to see literally hundreds of complaints about size discrimination & then offer ONE larger size for men & women is insulting to your users. (Especially since the shirts run small to begin with! And, let’s face it, a majority of computer geeks—your best customers—are at the extremes of the weight distribution curve.) I’m just starting to use Firefox & was excited about “spreading the good word.” Not now….

Glad to see the larger sizes for the guys. What about some with pockets. Need something to put my nerd stuff into, glasses pens and MP3 Player. Just a thought…

LOL! Have you ever seen a developer? They are either rail thin or extra giant. How can you not carry 2X and 3X sizes? This is insane? Who did you think would order these shirts, Brad Pitt? Please get real and stock some real sizes! For God’s sake Firefox is the best browser, let us be your mouthpiece.

[...] I’m happy to report that, due to popular demand, we’ve brought back two old favorites: the Firefox Black T-Shirt and the Firefox Navy T-Shirt. They only go up to XL right now, but we’ll be adding larger sizes soon as noted in the blog post from earlier this week. [...]

I would just like to echo some thoughts above. A pocket T-Shirt will sell. Most people in my department wear glasses due to much eye strain, and of course we need a place for our pens. In my office we either have developers under 140 lbs or over 240. Nothing in between.
Look around your world. People are fat. There is a real demand for 2XL & 3XL and when we find shirts that fit, we buy in a big way (pun not intended). Carry some real sizes and I will support you by ordering one for every day of the week. Add a pocket and I will take a dozen. I promise you that you will not get stuck with unsellable inventory. Whoever your buyer is must be one of those rail thin types that don’t understand large people.

I just posted a complaint about the lack of XXL and now I see this. Oops! Well at least I added my voice to the crowd.
I’m glad to hear that you will be adding some larger sizes.
Ever thought of firefox boxers?? I bet the nerdy girls would love me, (or their significant other), with a cute lil fox fox on the britches!! Just a suggestion.

No doubt that there should be “Programmer Size” shirts available. They can double as an awesome nightgown for women.

Today is 23 Sept…The sooner you get those XXL sizes online, the more sales you’ll make! Hacerlo!

All righty then! Good job on the t-shirts getting bigger, now how about the hoodie? With perhaps a logo? It’s gonna be gettin’ chilly soon. Hey, fleece stuff-e.g., vests and jackets- would be good too.
