So, as a moto fan, I've always loved most things about motocross, but as a digital product designer, I despise that moto tees haven't evolved since the early 2000's.
Most moto tees are still made with the thick ass 100% cotton shirts. Most moto tees STILL follow the same pocket size graphic on front and massive god awful dirtbike drawing on the back. They've been doing the same thing for 30-40 years.
This is why I decided to design some more modern and minimalistic tees and have them printed on demand through Cotton Bureau - a company that uses the super soft and comfy shirts to print designs onto.

Here's some of the first designs I've put up:

I stand corrected.

Nice designs, by the way. I like it.
Probably a pain in the ass or not even possible but could there be a choice of shirts too? Depending on the weather l like some thicker T's and then the lighter thinner, like someone said Fasthouse T's, for summer.
Oh and please no giant neck shirts that look like a tank top with sleeves.
I want these shirts!
I gotta say that I totally prefer the thick 100% cotton though.
I like 100% cotton T shirts - don’t need to be “soft”.
I'm surprised some of Vital's finest haven't lit you up for posting something for sale, called you a spammer, and told you to buy and ad....
I think I may be making an order.
Bonus points for the first person to identify the rider whose photo was used for the drawing reference on the "Jump Style" design. Double bonus for naming the event where the photo was taken.

Many years ago there was a guy at Lorettas selling shirts under the company name Thrill Seeking Threads or TST for short. Mid 90s sometime. He was just a random vendor one year. This sorta brings back memories.
Seattle?

The 30mins+2laps is great!
But damn it 30$... that's close to 1 race, nice idea though...
You can pick shirt, sweater or tank.
Then pick mens, womens, or kids.
Then pick soft cotton OR heavyweight (if you really want those)
Then pick color available for that type of shirt/sweater/tank.
I'm a designer. I've been doing cleaner/minimalist event shirts for a bit, and people def have been ok with the style update.
getting connected to a quality screen printer isn't hard. i can turn these for events on nice (ie none hanes beefy t's) for only about $1-2 more than the cheap shirts go for.
I don’t like the crazy full shirt images as much and the thick cotton tees. I use the softstyle cotton tee’s as they are lighter and breath well but aren’t real tight. But those thick cotton tees are wayyy cheaper. Just gotta decide if you want higher profit or a better product.
Those designs are really good tho. Good work!
