BLACKLAKE new bike label - opinion?

Likes Dirt
Hey guys,

as many of you i have been riding my bike around Sydney for a while. on February this year i had a crash in Oxford falls. i'm going through long recovery (it looks like another 7-9 months i will not sit on my bike - how frustrating) i have decide to use this time to set up mtb focused label called Blacklake. at this moment i have about two dozens t-shirt and hoodie samples plus some caps with embroidery.
some of them could be seen at OBR meeting few weeks ago. here are photos of t-shirt, hoodie samples, cap embroidery and few designs ready to go to production. i'm planning jerseys production in the future and as well some tops for chicks (last design) . also website will be developed soon.

Thanks for your opinion.

The design with the skull & fork lowers is awsome.
Maybe you could make some designs using your X-Rays
Hope you recover soon
 
Dig the skull-and-cross-bar/stanchions! The bike paraphenalia in the winged design is a bit faint, bigger rotors would look nice and bring out the cycling aspect. All in all I think great design, keep em' simple and inherently funky. I'd buy one. Oh, Blacklake is a good name too.
 
Looks sick man keep it up ill buy some.
For and idea a jaket hoody with the skull on the back but it covers the whole back and a small BLACKLAKE on the front and to the side that would look sick

Yeah, I didn't notice the rotor till you mentioned..
 
Im digging the name and the Hoodie Design.

As stated by the others totally missed the rotor on the t shirts but I still like the design.

Good luck recovering mate.
 
I saw Blueys shirt up at OBR, they look good I'd definitely buy a shirt. My Wife said she'd wear the women's design too. I hope it works out for ya.
 
Nice work.
I'd definitely buy the skull and bars/forks on a light-weight T. (not much call for hoodies in Darwin!)
 
Yeah mate looks good. I'd suggest having a think about making the chainring in the designs bigger and with more contrast. Really like the skull and cross-bar/stanchion design, although I reckon it would look a bit better with more contrast of the rotor in the background, or even replace it with a chainring - it would just make it a bit more "bikey". That said, I'd still buy one if/when they are available.
 
i totally didn't notice the rotor on the second design either..

any word on v-neck shirts?

sorry... i will meet production company soon. it should be no problem (i they have on stock v-neck shirts) to do run with different shapes of shirts
 
Lovin the t-ees... how aout that tee desin on the hoodies?

Are you going to bring out any Jerseys?
 
Not sure if your after this sort of feed back, but a thick and thin material hoodie would be good too, sometimes its just a little too warm to wear a thick hoodie but to cold to go with out.

As i wrote Jerseys are in plan. i need sort it out production (canvas printing, etc.). Its not easy like t-shirts :)
