Our all new Ojamas for 2009-2010 are ready for pre-ordering! If you tried our original Ojamas, you'll be thrilled with the softer, luxurious cotton flannel fabric and improved sizing and fit for ladies in our new design. Throughout the year, we surveyed our customers and the two areas which stood out most were fabric and fit. You told us you wanted softer cotton flannel and that you wanted a better fitting garment for ladies, and that's exactly what we're delivering this year. An overwhelming majority of customers who liked the orginal design with the campaign logo said they wanted to see something more fun with our new President's face, and we've captured that in our new design as well.
It took us a while, but we caught up on all orders, and we have plenty in stock for inauguration. As of this week, we're shipping orders the next day after they are placed. If you ordered before today or if you returned an item for exchange before today, your request has already been shipped or is being shipped tomorrow. Thank you to everyone who has been patient and thanks to those who have reordered or shared our concept with friends and family.
Completely changing the subject, we're very proud to have been mentioned by the husband of Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm in one of his recent weekly messages. Michigan's First Gentleman, Daniel Granholm Mulhern, encourages us all to have faith and confidence and to take risks that move us forward. Ojamas Sleepwear is honored to be featured as a case study by Mr. Mulhern.
The Pajama Program is a non-profit organization that provides new, warm pajamas and books to children in need in the United States and around the world, many who are waiting and hoping to be adopted. The program started with personal contributions from founders Genevieve Piturro, her friend Alice Clark, and their friends and relatives. The Pajama Program has grown nationwide and now receives contributions from generous supporters and fundraising events across the country.
One such event is the Obama Pajama Inauguration Charity Ball being held in Washington D.C. Sunday, January 18th. Hosted by reknowned actress, Carrie Fisher, the event begins at 7pm with a VIP Dinner in the Rotunda of the Ronald Reagan Building followed at 8pm by a Gala Reception in the Pavillion. Attire is black tie/ball gown or pajamas/nightgown.
A natural and perfectly complimentary patner, Ojamas Sleepwear, is co-sponsoring the event. Click here to buy tickets or make a donation. Be sure to bring your Ojamas with you or order yours today.
Although our goal was to deliver all orders placed by December 15th before Christmas, ship dates from the factory were missed and our inbound shipments were commingled with several holiday shipments. This series of events combined with inclement weather to cause significant delays in our fulfillment process.
We made extraordinary efforts to expedite outbound shipments, and in spite of the unfortunate challenges afflicting us, we were able yesterday to ship all orders placed before December 8 and most that were placed on December 9th.
If your order was placed on or before December 8th, please be assured it is on its way to you if you have not already received it.
We will be working today, Christmas eve, to ship all orders placed through December 15th. All orders placed after December 15th will resume the shipping process on Friday of this week.
We will be closed tomorrow in observance of Christmas Day. Please accept our sincere apology if your order was delayed, our assurance that we are working diligently to ship your order as soon as possible, our gratitude for your enthusiastic support and our wish that your holiday is safe and joyful.
Our offer of a free "Yes We Did" sticker expired today as we have exceeded our alotment of 1000 units. There are still plenty of Ojamas (pajamas and gowns) available in all sizes for holiday delivery, but we've run out of the Shepard Fairey stickers. Everyone who ordered Ojamas gowns or pajamas before today will receive one (per order) before Christmas. If you didn't get your order in soon enough for the sticker, don't let that stop you from getting the best political pajamas and gowns in history. Whether you're collecting Obama memorabilia or you feel a special connection with the new First Family as many of us supporters do, you can give the most memorable and unique gift of the season with Ojamas. Orders placed before 12/15 for delivery in the US are guaranteed to be delivered before Christmas. Orders placed between 12/16 and 12/20 have a good chance of being delivered by 12/24, but each day that passes after 12/16 poses a greater challenge for a pre-Christmas delivery. Don't forget inauguration. Even if you don't get your order placed in time for Christmas, there is no finer way to enjoy the inauguration of the 44th President of the United States than while wrapped in the soft warmth of genuine Ojamas. Order yours now.
Two children's sizes have been added in limited quantities to our line. Youth medium (8-10) and youth large (12-14) are now available on our web site. Be sure to order soon if you want them before Christmas. Ojamas make great gifts are are a must-have for inauguration-eve.
Good news! We received our inventory from the factory a couple of days earlier than expected. All remaining orders placed by 11/05 are packaged and being picked up by the postal service on Monday. Hurray!!! You'll have them in just a few short days. Later today we'll have a better idea of just how far beyond 11/05 we'll be able to go. The factory is already working on the next batch which we expect will arrive before 11/30. If you're thinking of giving Ojamas as Christmas gifts, or you want them to wear in time for the inauguration, please do not wait to order them. Producing sufficient quantities depends heavily on our ability to estimate demand as far in advance as possible. If you order now, we can virtually guarantee you will have yours by the 2nd week of December.
We fill orders on a first in/first out basis, so if we don't get your order until December 20th, our ability to fill it depends on how many orders came in before yours and how much inventory is left at that time. We're not just encouraging to order early to artificially inflate sales projections for some corporate big wig. We simply want to provide you the best product as quickly as possible.

Ojamas will be rolling in over the next few days, and we’re going to stick to our policy of first-in, first-out. A call from the warehouse brought disappointing news that they haven’t produced enough to fill our entire backlog by election day. The good news is that if you’ve been waiting a long time, you’ll be the first to get them and it will be in time for election day. The other good news is that everyone who has ordered already received the introductory price. There are still a few more days before the increase to $34.99 goes into effect (11/01). Place your order now.
The factory confirms they'll be finished in time for us to deliver by election day. Here's the latest picture. The design on the pocket doesn't align with the rest of the garment in this sample. We're fixing that now, but we wanted to let you see that we're making good progress. Be sure to get your order in before next Wednesday if you want to receive Ojamas by election day.
