A few questions:

Would you actually buy or wear something like this?

What would you realistically pay for it?

Does the graphic feel premium or too generic?

What would you change to make it look more like a high-end streetwear piece?

Please be brutally honest. I'd rather hear the hard truth now than after launching.

Thanks

this is my biggest win so far, after being bashed by this community, i found some peace with your reviews and positioned my brand well to target the perfect type of customers.

today, I've sold out on most of the designs and already planned on launching 70 new ones till the end of the year.

i love it how our customers have loved the collection, it's vibe, the design/structure and the durability of our products. something a brand is always proud of.

not a sales pitch or something, my genuine win after almost 1.5yrs of launching my clothing brand.

if you have any more tips and advice, please, I'm all ears. btw many people said redesigning the store to give kinda confident and luxury feminine feel to it, I'm working on that for now.

Hi guys, i would appreciate your opinions and support on my first drop for a clothing brand from Croatia 🇭🇷

Ich habe an einer neuen Methode für Abnahmen eines V Ausschnittes gearbeitet, wobei diese schöne Kette entsteht. Das Design ist von mir Nininobilis

Das Garn ist von Fraya Senfgelb und Olivegrün
Ich muss Design Informationen angeben wurde mir mitgeteilt, daher nenne ich das Design Nininobilis und wer es haben möchte muss natürlich mich kontaktieren 💕
Es ist eine tolle Methode für Abnahmen wobei diese Kette am Rand entsteht nur ist sie etwas schwer das hier als Text verständlich zsm zu fassen jedoch helfe ich gerne wenn jemand diese Methode lernen möchte

Hi everyone! I'm Lindsay.

My sister is the reason I started learning about adaptive clothing and accessibility. As I dug into the space, I realized there are a lot of great brands making products that solve real problems, but they're spread across so many different websites that they're hard to discover.

That inspired me to build Adaptiv, a free website that brings adaptive clothing from different brands together in one place.

Right now, it includes things like arthritis-friendly shoes, clothing with magnetic or easy-fastening closures, sensory-friendly clothing, and other adaptive options from a variety of brands.

My goal is simply to make it easier for people to discover clothing that fits their needs without having to search dozens of different websites.

If this sounds like something that would be helpful to you or someone you know, you can check it out here: https://adaptiv-app.com.

I'm continuing to improve it, so if you notice something that's missing or have ideas that would make it more useful, I'd genuinely appreciate hearing them.

Thank you!

Hey everyone! ✌️

After months of designing, tweaking, ordering samples, changing my mind a hundred times, and learning Shopify from scratch, I finally launched my brand: Dad’s Due.

The idea behind it is simple: create clothing that celebrates fatherhood—not just with “funny dad” graphics, but with designs that represent the bond between dads and their kids, leading by example, family traditions, and raising the next generation. With toddler designs made to match.

I’m still a new creator, so I’d genuinely appreciate any feedback—whether it’s about the designs, the website, branding, or anything else you notice. I’m trying to improve with every release.

Thanks for taking a look, and I hope to return the favor by checking out some of your brands too!

Made of a 9 oz American bull denim. Fully made in the USA. Has an extra pocket only on the left sleeve. Releasing soon. Brand’s IG is harrownumen.

This is the first piece built entirely around the Void Walker archetype — outerwear, VPL pattern system, currently in tech pack with our manufacturing partner.

Design language stays locked to the KN//9 palette: Void, Ash, Bone, Teal. No loud graphics. The weight is in the construction, not the print.

This is early — tech pack stage, not shipped yet. Sharing here first because this community is the Archive, and the Archive sees things before anyone else does.

Drop timeline TBD. Will keep this thread updated as it moves through production.
