Iv'e gotta be real with ya chief. The skiers market is a really small demographic. It would be better to be focused on street wear clothes with a nod towards the industry with some specific items.
I will be waiting for you to release your bold marketing strategy on how you are expecting to pull this off. You need to be some sort of wizard to make it in this industry

SuspiciousFishIf you make hoodies, be sure to make them with big hoods so you can fit a hemet under it and they just look better than small hoods that barely cover your forehead.This thread makes me wish I never lost my Siver Cartel hoodie.
Nah big hooded hoodies look weird when you're not skiing.

I'm going to be honest if you want to make a successful company I would suggest doing more than just slapping a screen printed logo on some shirts (i.e. you aren't supreme so you can't get away with it). There needs to be some unique aspect to the product that suggests the piece has some thought and attention to detail put into it (do some cool stitching, use high quality zippers, unique materials and patterns, etc.). What is going to sell is something that is unique, well fitting, and aesthetically appealing. Look at arsenic their stuff is unique and Dan puts quite a bit of work into achieving a certain aesthetic with the pieces, and because of that he has been able to create a crowd of people who buy his stuff.

Thanks man! Yah at the moment I am on a really low budget. So I am trying to keep it cheap. I am getting much better at Photoshop and I have made like 40 designs. The ones I have made up until now are basically just for me to sell to friends family and people near me.

Nah I don’t put in anywork. Overnight success.
OP, my advice is mindset based. Look at the clothing you make as a creative outlet. Primarily it should be a hobby that you love to spend your free time working on. If you can solidify that then you’ll have an easy time keeping things going. If you focus on $ too early you may end up disappointed. Margins won’t be great, market is small, and it’ll take time to really carve out your own style and establish your brand. If you are just pursuing your own creativity then that process will be easy to enjoy. Good luck!!
