Introducing Fly Coast Outfitters - your premier destination for coastal-inspired apparel that's as vibrant and dynamic as the ocean itself. Embark on a journey with us as we redefine coastal fashion, blending style and functionality seamlessly. Join the adventure and embrace the essence of coastal living with Fly Coast Outfitters. We need coastal vibe t-shirt designs and logo designs that exude coastal relaxation. 1-2 color designs, to start. Not looking for retro designs. NO SCRIPT or decorative script fonts, please. Designs should and will be printed on the back of the garment. A small design will be on the front left of the garment. Fly Coast Outfitters is the brainchild of a commercial pilot and family who love the coast and everything that it inspires. We love and long to get to the coast at every available moment. Especially the southeast coast. But don't allow that to tarnish your creativity. Whether you are in Europe, the Caribbean, the U.S.A., or even Abu Dhabi, every coast of the world has something different to offer that anyone can enjoy. The trick is to incorporate aviation into the design. Doesn't have to be the focal point, but due to the brand name, aviation needs to be a part of it. Not required in every design, but Palm trees, Coconuts, flip-flops, American Flag, and center console fishing Boats/yachts are great to have in designs, and Seaplanes are a must to keep that coastal vibe. Sailboats are ok too. Adult beverages can be incorporated too, but they should be small in size to not look like the drink is the main idea. No ships in designs. I don't think it will fit into the vibe. If you can make it work, I will take a look. You can throw in fishing off of the seaplane as an idea too. Coastal food fare/seafood as well. With the coast, the aviation part of the designs will need to be with seaplanes/floatplanes. No commercial aircraft or general aviation aircraft with wheeled landing gear. Seaplanes are the only option here. Think Margaritaville, but with your own vibe and spin on things. We don't want to appeal to the masses, as we are targeting a specific niche. That niche includes the weekend coastal visitor all the way up to those of us who live the lifestyle every day. Those who long for the relaxing vibe and the serenity that the coast offers. No matter what we are going through in life, the coast can help piece us back together. Inspiration can be taken from Margaritaville, Southern Tide, Southern Marsh, Costa, SaltLife, and other world brands. The uploaded files are only ideas and inspiration. The Elite.pdf is a design that I like. It can be re-imagined to create a coastal experience and feelings of emotion for the coast. Once I have 2-3 appealing and accepted designs, we will begin social media brand building, complete the website, and begin production. Will need ongoing design support in designs. About 12 designs per year or 3 per quarter. The success of our new brand will depend on our designs, social outreach, and our ability to hook our targeted niche audiences. Let us know if you have any questions. We look forward to working with you soon.
Updates
Hey guys..the first few designs are a little too cartoonish for what we are looking for. Please read the product description again. Please take a look at southerntide.com and margaritaville.com to get some sort of idea of the vibe we want to create. We don’t want cartoonish designs. This is a brand not a Print on Demand design. All of the apparel will be screen printed. I know a few of you have great ideas. Let’s see them.
