Made another jacket for a friend's child.  The front print is a copy of the original patent application for Lego.

Coming soon - Row West Designer Unis

Here's a quick preview of the first design that I'm going to offer in the unisuit section of rowwest.com.  I'll be working on new ideas all the time and posting them once I feel like they're good enough.  Next uni up will be "The Grid" (previewed already in this blog) with flourescent base tone.

I know that dye printed stretch gear has been growing in popularity and I'm happy to be able to do it.  I think that some uniforms are still best suited to cut and sew paneling, but dye printing opens a world of possibilities.   I don't want to just make 'crazy' spandex gear.  I want to make cool designs that are specifically tailored to the clothing - ie the difference between making a uni out of a crazy printed material vs actually designing where on the uni each element is going to go.   It's not an easy process and involves a lot of computer work but the end results will hopefully be worth it.

This is a front photo of Spirotechnic.  Will be available in two tone of your choice or full rainbow.  Centre of circle placement to be determined (still deciding what will look best)
