After putting out an open call to designers of all skill levels, the finalists of the PacSun Design Competition have been revealed. Each of the top five submissions taps into the retailer’s SS21 collection themes of mindfulness, community, self-reflection, sustainability, diversity and inclusion, interpreted through the lens of the designer. After receiving entries from all over the country from talents of various skill levels, HYPEBEAST editors and Chinatown Market founder Mike Cherman narrowed down the pool to five T-shirts. Now, the public has the opportunity to help PacSun usher in a season of optimism and hope by helping to pick the winning design. In addition to having their T-shirt produced by PacSun, the winner will also receive a mentoring session from Cherman and their final product featured on HYPEBEAST.
