New Tall Tee Company

Hi, am seriously thinking on starting up a clothing company mainly focused on very tall shit. I would start out with hoodies without zippers. then go to zippers and tee shirts. These would all be handmade by me to be a normal width but very tall, with customizable colours. These would probably sell for 35-40 dollars canadian. What do you guys think? is Raft Clothing a good name? Would anyone buy my stuff? Is the price resonable?

im sure people would buy your stuff if it looks good, and is of decent quality, price seems reasonable, not to sure about the name tho, seems abit unimaginative... could be good tho with a decent logo.

cool?


its not like there are a million other people doing this

you gotta do it yourself, we aren't going to pick your name, make your logo, tell you what to make, etc.

if you are serious about it come up with some samples and show us a real product, not a drawing or something like that


That being said, once i see something real and if it isn't lame or really expensive i would consider buying something

I wasn't trying to make it seem that i wanted you to come up with a name, or anything else.nni was just asking if you would wear somthing that said raft clothing on it and if you liked the ideas i had.  I will get real pictures up, it may take a wile though, i still have to order fabric

I tried this once..
And I sold allot of hoodies to people in Norway and made allot of cash doing it, the summer came along and no one bought my shit.
Now it's winter again and I think I'm going to make more.
If you can make the hoodies look sick I know you are going to sell your stuff fast!

Good Luck!

Name it Dirst Frop.

I'm not a fan of tall staff myself (even though I'm 6"4, go figure)

If the designs are good and high quality then I would get one, but that is hard to find these days.

Those are the two main problems..

high quality fabric is hard to find in canada, especially online because you cant actually feel it .

Its hard to make designs too because i dont have a clothing press, so the design would come from different fabric colours..
