The above picture is from our booth at the the African Dance Explosion event last week. Unfortunately we can’t show you the other pictures since we don’t want to show the images of the new bernos tees we are launching next Thursday.
This year marks the 25th anniversary of the Ethiopian Soccer Tournament hosted by Ethiopian Sports Federation of North America (ESFNA). As most of you know the ET Soccer tournament is HUGE and especially when it’s in DC.
You all know how DC is the capital of Ethiopians North America. Usually when there is an event in DC everyone seems to flock here in great numbers, and the soccer tournament is no exception.
Here at bernos we have been debating whether or not to sell bernos shirts at the tournament. Until now our shirts have only been available online. Many of you have suggested that we sell at the tournament
We also thought it would be a great way to introduce bernos shirts to those who are not that tech savvy. So many talks later, we have decided to reserve a booth in order to sell our shirts. We hope to see all of you there.
Also, everyone has been demanding that we reprint the old shirts. We’ve been debating whether to reprint or not. I voted to give the people what they wanted but someone (shhh…nolawi) said, “NO we shouldn’t reprint!!!”
But finally I won!! (With the support of Dawit of course)
So to meet your demands we took some votes reprint the most requested shirts. Below is a list of the shirts up for reprint.
- Ethiopian-Alien
- Desta Keremela
- Afrocode
Thanks guys and we love you all for loving bernos!!!!

Does this mean you guys debate on almost everything? It looks like bernos could have been even better than this if there were less debates, right? I am curious, is there a Hilary supporter from you guys? It seems someone is looking for debates, more debates.
All I have to say is great news!! I an actualy wearing my Afrocode right now!!
(Sorry TP if you’re reading this. I love to express my mood with multiple punctuations… .)
I think its a good decision. And I am wearing my “d’afrique” tee right now. I Love IT!
Look forward to seeing you guys at the ESFNA.
…got posted twice so am deleting this one!
ummm … can i exchange my previous ET alien shirt for a newer one … i kinda stretched it on the fact that i got fatter but now, thanks to slim fast and dirqosh i am back to my regular weight.
so, no? yes? half price? i can do sales minamin.
so how many new designs are you gonna have for the soccer tournament?
Mamo–of course…on everything! we are a team therefore majority rules! nolawi and i support obama but dawit doesnt really care…he’s swedish you know…
Rick–no on the exchange, but we’ll talk about discounts maybe. we have two new desings.
Why the writer she sounds like the Bernos team is doing a big favour to the buyers? I mean, there’s a mutual interest b/n the buyer and the seller,right. Are you planning giving out to Bernos bloggers with discount? Obviously, the tornament will be a great venue for many vendors and take advantage of it.
ok..how about Bekila..?? you guys should think about it for real…( guys will like that t-shirt…)
Thank you for your consideration of “Desta Keremela”! :=)
Yes. Thank you very much for the reprint of Desta Keremela and the others too, actually. I may not make it to the Tournament but I sure will have whoever is going buy me all three. I love them all!!
Great article. I found some more information here
There’s some more information here if anyone’s interested
You wouldn’t believe it but I have spent all day searching for some info about this. I wish I knew of this site earlier, it was a thought provoking read and has helped me out to no end. Cheers,Homepage
