Starting a New Line/Brand Feedback Thread

@novus if you want to promote your brand I suggest making a thread in the Fashion Brand section and bump it every so often that way the peeps here stay out of your way and you stay out of theirs AND you get to promote as much as you like cause the thread belongs to you. win/win all around

you cant make threads in their untill your established yet

oops my bad, but established how so? was wondering

Is it lame to label your own brand as a "Lifestyle", "Streetwear", "Collective"? Or no? I have been debating on whether it is a good idea to do so

Hey guys,
I started we started a small line a little over a year ago and just got into Kazbah (stuff isnt up yet, just got photoshoot images back from them). Thought we could share our line and get some feedback.

Decided to go all out and had custom shirts cut and sewn to spec with a super thick and soft combed cotton with a premium ribbed collar. Blew a huge ton on these because of custom cuts I had to have minimum orders per size so no XL at the moment as I am out of monies for more sizes until I can get through this first batch of shirts.

thanks,

I think you have to have a real reason to do it, not just cause you want to. The brand Cxxvi (www.cxxvi.net) is considered a life style brand because of the vibe it gives off, the brand message, it's variety of products, etc. It isn't just some brand that makes 4 tees and says so.

I think it's pretty important to categorize your brand correctly. Whenever I see a brand randomly calling them selves a life style brand when there is no reason they are, i just click away. It mostly depends on the way you brand yourself and your brand message, and the way you execute it.

I agree with jake that its good to categorize your brand and decide where you want to stand. I certainly don't think that you should used those words in your name but I think if you honestly think you are a streetwear brand then go ahead and use that in your description or something. What I think you will find though is that your type of brand will be dubbed by fans as you develop more.

Technically no. But they are such a small brand and printed maybe 25 tees. Im sure the company won't care nor notice. But they should be careful about travelling into those kind of waters, especially as you grow

still isn't cool to take other peoples artwork. theres a difference between copyrighted artwork and public domain images. some people don't understand that difference though

Design was made by us. Well aware that it is a parody on the cartoon. Find it funny that people are commenting more about an oldschool obscure childrens anime and not on the big corporate giant for the mickey design
