Hoelzer Reich are a Californian based company who were recently banned from sponsoring fighters at future UFC and WEC (cage and martial arts fights) events in Britain. The controversy unfolded when a fighter entered the ring wearing a custom printed T-Shirt. The symbols on this T-Shirt were said to resemble the Iron Cross and a logo closely resembling the Nazi SS emblem.The use of these symbols caused distress and shock to a great many people. It is still unclear whether this T-Shirt design was an innocent mistake or if the designer was seeking publicity. Often new designers want to shock or surprise the public with symbols or slogans that they know some people will dislike or take offence to.Logo ID, have an experienced team of sales and design staff many of whom have over a decade of previous experience in the T-Shirt business. If you are unsure about whether you want to go with a specific logo or slogan why not ask Logo ID to digitally print off a prototype T-shirt for you? You can then wear this proto-type T-Shirt and gauge the reaction to it before producing a larger quantity of the same.
