esk8 builders | T-Shirt Design Competition

General Discussion
1

Over the last few years the ‘build your own eboard movement’ has grown from strength to strength - Building your own eboard is a growing trend worldwide and it’s not slowing down, everyday more & more people are experiencing the huge sense of fulfillment & performance benefits of building DIY Electric Skateboards.

As the numbers of eboard builders grows worldwide i think it’s time we all had shirt we can proudly wear that expresses who we are & what we do.

COMPETITION GUIDELINES

  1. Design a Graphical Logo to be printed onto a shirt.
  2. The Logo should include text / shapes / patterns.
  3. The Design should be monochromatic. Black Or White is generally best.
  4. Ultimately you are designing a T-shirt & Logo, so think about how you make use of the front & back of the t-shirt.
  5. The ideal design would consist of a LOGO & A SLOGAN - The slogan doesn’t necessarily need to be incorporated into the logo it can be a stylised text. Maybe you will have logo on front & text on the back or vice versa.
  6. The Design must incorporate a text element expressing the “message of our movement” a kind of catch phrase/slogan that concisely identifies what we do as eboard builders.

Message Examples; “I build eboards” “esk8 builder” “life’s too short to push” “esk8 or die” “electric skateboard artist”

we could just draw up the logo though if the online shirt maker is not our cup of tea right?

The goal of my design was a minimalistic and clean look, so I only added one photo and line of text. So far I really like the designs that have come in. Thanks for the contest Onloop!
