Dear Marathon Globetrotters,
GoLogo (http://www.gologostore.com), the company that will be handling our singlet and patches (badges) sales, announced that these items are available for purchase. Many members will be purchasing the singlet and patch (badge) at the same time and they will be shipped together. The patch (badge), which indicates the number of countries you have completed (in multiples of ten: 10, 20, 30, etc.) can be either sewn on the back of the singlet or glued on with an iron. Keep in mind that if ironed on, I have been advised that it can not be removed.
Requests to purchase a singlet and/or patch (badge) will be processed and shipped after your membership and level status has been verified.
Globetrotter members can order men and women's sized singlets and badges that are based on flag status. For example, a 2 Flag member may order a 20 countries badge. The company handling singlet and badge sales is the GoLogo Store (http://www.gologostore.com).
Please note the following before ordering:
1. Non-members cannot order a singlet.
2. Members cannot order badges higher than the level they have achieved (except that a member who is just one country short (19, 29, etc.) can order the next higher badge so that he/she can have it on hand when that next country is achieved. Provisional members may order their first badge (10 countries) when he/she has completed 9 certified countries.
3.The GoLogo Store checks our internet website member tab prior to processing an order, so it is imperative that you keep your certified countries count up to date, especially when you reach the 9th, 19th, 29th (etc.) country.
4. Please do not attempt to order a singlet and next level badge if you are not entitled to it under our policy as it causes an undo burden on us and personnel at the GoLogo Store to take the time to communicate with each other to verify and then deny your order as placed and then communicate with you with the reasons why the order can not be processed. Thank you.
