Well, it’s been a long time in the making – but I’m finally putting out my first shirt design. It’s terrifying and exciting all at the same time, but I knew I had to move forward on this one.
In case you didn’t already know, my brain and body were abducted by the sport of roller derby. If you don’t know about it, seriously look into it – there’s probably a league near you and you didn’t even know it. It’s a new passion that I’ve gained for a fast-paced, full contact, all female sport, that I never knew I could do until I gave it a try. In addition to being obsessed with the sport itself, it’s flowed over into my design work and that’s how my Positional T-Shirt came to life.
The design on the front features the phrase “Roller Derby” in a curvy script, but the back is where it all came together. The position called “Jammer” is the one who gets all the glory in roller derby, and I wanted to make something for the “Blocker” and “Pivot” who seriously work their tails off to make the Jammer’s job as easy as possible.
On the back, you can find three fresh new icons for the positions of roller derby – in addition to a tattoo style lettering for those roles. So say it loud, where it with pride, and let the world know which position you favor the most!
The pre-sale ends at 11:59pm on Monday, October 14, 2013 – and if you order before then, I’ll include a FREE Roller Derby patch in your order. Buy Now!
