(I've been trying for the last two and a half years). I got a TIKI design approved by the wonderful folks at Body Glove, and a nice big order for them from the nice folks at Big 5 Sporting Goods! Here's what they look like...................... They will come in 3 colors... Yellow and Black (The classic Body Glove logo colors) Blue and Black and Coral and Black. Each towel comes with a spiffy Body Glove hang tag/sticker. I just got off the phone with the shipping company, and the towels are on a boat heading for the port of L.A. right now. The towels were woven together by 99 beautiful naked dancing girls in the tropical lush sea side wilds of the mysterious East. They ( the towels not the naked dancing girls) land in mid April, get trucked to Riverside California to the Big 5 distribution center, then off the the Big 5 stores from there. There are something like 344 Big 5 stores in the western United states. You can find a store near you by going to http://www.big5sportinggoods.com/store_locator.html Unfortunately not all the stores may have the towels. I'm considered a new vendor for them and they didn't place a mondo huge order, but more like (for them) a small sized order. You may have to call and check your local store to see if they will be carrying them. I know all the stores in the So Cal L.A. area will be stocked with them, but beyond that I'm not sure. The towels are marked for retail sale at $19.95 - HOWEVER, I have inside info that they will be on sale for only $10 for a certain period. TEN freaking bucks! Sheesh! That is a cool towel for $10! Really! I mean, come on, this is a nice soft fluffy 100% cotton double Jacquard woven beach towel! Not a cheep ass printed towel, no way. I don't know how they are selling em so cheep, but hey, they must know what they're doing. As long as they're buying em from me they can give em away I guess! Big 5 is going to run an AD for the Body Glove Tiki Towels the week of 5/18 in the LA Times. That's when they are planning the big Blow Out Summer sale. We should be able to make the delivery of the goods later this month without a glitch. Of course, of something goes wrong, like the ship sinks before it gets to the port of L.A., Big 5 will send out hit men to cut off my balls, and I will lose every red cent, and my company will be wiped out, and my wife and twelve small children will go with out food, and I'll get kicked out of my tiki hut and have to live in the jungle off wild bananas and lizards.
