We have received a Cease & Desist letter from attorneys representing the United States Marine Corps. They have requested that we remove all Marine-related art and all designs that use the words Marines, USMC, etc.<\/p>\n

It’s a very sad day for us, because we love providing our customers the ability to create their own designs using elements from our design center.<\/p>\n

We’re investigating a licensing situation, but it looks like it will take some time. In the meantime, we’ve changed that category to “Military Love<\/a>“. Here you can find subcategories for Military Wife<\/a>, Military Girlfriend<\/a>, and Military Mom<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Military<\/a><\/p>\n

We’d love to hear from all the Marine wives, Marine girlfriends, and Marine moms out there! If you would like to see Marine designs back on Customized Girl<\/em>, join us in the fight to get our Marine category back! Please email us at CustomizedGirl@eretailing.com<\/span><\/strong> with your story of why you love customizing Marine shirts to support your loved one! We want to produce Marine designs for you again so we’re collecting as many stories as possible to show the Marines that our designs do way more good than harm to their brand!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
