Amanjukies

Is this correct? There are two types of Amanjunkie t-shirts.
1) The original which just says Amanjunkie and is available at Puri
2) The property specific ones that are available at the other Amans. They look different from the normal t-shirts sold in the gift shop and are only available after visit number 2 to that specific property.

If this is correct, and Aman continues building more hotels, Mr. Ericka and I may never have an Amanjunkie t-shirt.

Sort of begs the question. If someone loves Amangani and visits there a few times a year but never goes to any other Aman in his lifetime, is he really an Amanjunkie? Or is he an Amanganijunkie? LOL

1 & 2 : That is correct

Please just to return to one of your favourites, Ericka!
I sort of have the same problem too but have been to certain Amans multiple times.
Especially since they are opening many more with Turkey in July , etc...

I have an additional black polo-shirt from Amanpulo with resort name in the neck area and "Amanjunkie" on the left chest side (which was given to me as a farewell gift if I recall correctly).
For some Amans, you have the choice of having the T-shirts in black or white.

The text may be emblazoned on the back or front... or ? The text may also be in different colours of a particular property.
I usually use these T-shirts as my Aman uniform i.e. when staying at an Aman e.g. wear Amankila's Amanjunkie at Amanpuri, etc. Or at Trisara

If other Amanjunkies Flyers wear them , we can perhaps figure out who we are if we happen to stay at an Aman..
I do need a Flyertalk luggage tag - have not worked hard at spotting them in lounges or inflight
