Air Jordan September Releases: Pair them with an ADJ shirt!


I came across these Jordans that are to be released in September. I wanted to share it with you because they go good together with some shirts that we have recently designed. The Jordan Fly 23 in Black/White/Orion Blue. This would go perfect if paired with our Black and Turquoise Nerd T-shirt.


I also came across the Air Jordan 1 in Cool Grey/Imperial Blue. This sneaker goes good with our "Three Little Pigs" T-shirt. The color scheme goes good together. The exact release date for both of these sneakers is not out yet but they will be available sometime in September!

Sticker Sketches

I have been working on a new design for a sticker that I wanted to create. I used Adobe Illustrator and I decided to share some snapshots of the steps that I took to create it. Hope you like it. 


I wanted to do a sketch of someone on a bike... this is where it started.


I ended up with this... still unfinished but I like it. I felt like it needed something more. Maybe a little more action so I decided to start a new sketch.


First, I wanted to add more detail to his face...


Then I wanted to show more action with the bike...




And this is the finished product!

NEW Nerd Slim Fit T-shirt Available soon!



This is a graffiti mop shirt that I am currently getting printed. It will be available in purple and black. I will be having a few shirts with different types of faces that are styled like this that I will be getting printed in the coming months. It's a simple design, but I like it because it gives the shirt a personality. It goes along with the theme of my brand, self-expression and description. There will be a variety of shirts that will represent different moods/personalities. This is the first shirt for that collection: The nerd.

Dirt District T-shirt


This is one of the first shirts that I created for my clothing line. The phrase "Dirt District" is exactly what it sounds like. Its is the opposite of diamond district. Its not about the glitz and glam its gritty and authentic. This shirt idea stems more from the bmx and skateboarding culture. When you skate and ride, it's all about putting in work not being afraid to get dirty and stepping into the dirt district. It's a state of mind. If you click on the photo, you'll be able to see the paint splatter and the smaller details of the t-shirt as well as the vibrancy of the brighter colors. I really wanted the colors to pop. The photo above is of the black shirt but I also have this in a organic cotton white t-shirt with the same print colors.

SUCK IT!!! Coming soon!


This is my newest design. I really wanted to create something with a pop art/comic feel to it. I did a lot of brainstorming and came up with this design. It's kind of a play-on-words with the whole "Suck it" theme. I just wanted something that could be colorful and universal, that a variety of people would like. For now, I will be getting this printed on a white tee. I am still in the process of getting these printed, but it is coming soon! I will continue to blog, tweet, and facebook everyone to keep you all updated!

The Three Little Pigs


This is another shirt that I recently designed. It's an image of spray paint cans, markers, and paint brushes chasing pigs dressed like cops. I had a lot of fun with this design. Growing up in New York, graffiti was everywhere. And in my opinion, it's one of the hottest forms of art. It was a way for everyone to express themselves and it gave the city so much character and told the artist's story. But being that it's illegal. Graffiti isn't always that easy. It gets painted over or cops give out fines. This shirt is a type of rebellion against that. I think the imagery is cool.
