Highlyhonored.com What do you think about the bigcartel?

Clean over all. A lot of open space though on the page.
Makes the website look plain in my honest opinion. Not that you should have pictures all over the place but I guess thats the downfall when you have a small lineup in the start.

Also word of advice something I myself am working on as well. If you know someone who can do DTG for you I would suggest having a sample made of each shirt you plan on printing and then taking a photo and using that as a product shot. You don't have to wait for all 12-24 shirts done already.
DTG prints will cost you maybe $12-$20 for a hard copy sample of what you want your product to look like before it's silk screened.
Then you can see exactly the sizing you want on the front designs and if the colors will work as well.

All, if not most of my front pictures on my site are mock ups too but I'm in the process of editing the product shots I took this weekend and posting those instead so people can actually see.
Plus my pops looks 2 my site and told me I need to put some heat on those shirts and I had to explain that they were just mockup pictures from the template

I'm out here in Cali. But people across the the US are starting to get into it so it shouldn't be to hard to find one in your area unless you live somewhere really remote.
Some online shops off DTG as well.
But when you di it make sure it the same format needed for a silk screener. If its a photoshop or jpeg image it has to be high quality 300dpi for it to come out crisp. Vector will also help with the color vibrancy.

its actully not that bad i would make the text smaller but keep tower the same

imo, jake's t-shirt has a motif that is unique, fluid font with lightning bolt, corresponding with the light aspect of his brand name.

what other significance, i don't know.

but other, your tank is simply a sign, standard font touched up with a grunge brush it seems.

as a consumer, I simply see more value in Jake's, seems to be more effort and thought.

i agree....in comparison to the noneother tee...Light tee has been executed with more design quality.
but in comparison to logo tees.....

"why would someone want to spend money on your brand? why would someone want to purchase this tee? there is nothing fundamentally wrong the the design, but i literally could not be less interested into it. name and logo – there’s really nothing special about it. " - Jake

Careful with DTG fellas. We actually owned a DTG printer last year before it broke down and we sold it for parts. When they work, they work pretty well but they are really hard to maintain. Anyways, the concern lies with the ink being transfered into the threads of the garment. It looks great at the start, but when you wash the shirt and it shrinks then the design gets physically warped and looks like shit. So getting proofs done on a DTG isnt too bad, but i just wanted to give you guys a heads up.

BRUTALLY HONEST FEEDBACK PLS?!!

I actually watched him cry while he was still in the "kink" stages when he first purchased his printer. He had to figure everything out himself because it didn't come with a manual but it prints good when done properly.

Feedback please!

What kind of audience are you trying to target?

I think you should go back to the drawing board with these, the design isn't particularly intriguing and I'm not a fan of the colors you used. Also they are wrinkled, take your time with this man.

the overall design doesn't draw me in. almost too generic. not feeling the color of the shirts used. the Uphustle logo would look better bigger and just by itself but as long as you changed that so its not rectangular like supreme box logo.

I do see how it's too generic, but I designed it to be a statement describing yourself.
My audiuence imtrying to target are young adults, skateboarders/atheletes, musicians (hip hop)- being in highschool, I planned to bring a good message with my company.
I picked the colors of the shirts cause its summer, bright or pastel I feel.
They're wrinkled becuase they're on the floor.

I have one store going to carry Uphustle Clothing online. this week I'm going to be going to independent brick and motar skate shops.
Thanks for the feedback! Anymore?
