Just another NS T-shirt company

Just kidding, we're not a company.... but you can give us your money in exchange for t-shirts with stuff we made printed on them.

A little bit of backstory. Last spring when I couldn't ski because the northwest had no snow I started drawing things. You may have seen this one:

I started to get a few requests to put some of my doodles on T-shirts. I like T-shirts so I teamed up with James Engerbretson, you may recognize this picture of him:

In addition to being a rad skier, James also happens to be a super awesome graphic designer. We decided we might as well make some shirts, so I did a bit of doodling, he did a bit of graphic designing, and this is what we popped out with for our first one:

It also has a pretty cool tag, with some true facts on it:

We realize that this "Ski Idaho" motif is not super universal, but we also know these true facts:

T-shirts with drawings of mountains on them are cooler than t-shirts without.

-If you ski Idaho you should probably own this shirt.

-If you don't ski Idaho but wish you did, you should own this shirt.

-If you don't ski Idaho and you really don't ever want to, you should still own this shirt because it will encourage people to go ski Idaho instead of plundering your secret sash.

This is a picture of me wearing the shirt yesterday (I look like a goober but that's not the shirt's fault):

Here is a picture of Johnny Carr hitting that jump to keep your attention (he is not wearing the shirt, but he is good at skiing):

We didn't make very many of these, but we'd like to branch out into some other designs, so this is sort of a test run to see how many people out there actually want a shirt with a drawing on it.

If you are one of those people check out this link:http://www.cywhitling.com/new-products/ski-idaho-shirt

If you are not one of those people, let me know what else I should draw and put on a shirt, here are a few other things I drew: http://www.cywhitling.com/doodles/

If you just think I'm a self serving moron and want to tell me why, feel free to post below.

Thanks!

some moose thing like this guy with the Tetons would be SICK. 10/10 would buy. But I'm bias and like anything with the tetons on them.

Teton's are 100% on the menu for the next shirt!

You and Tall T Dan together would make the most epic sales pitches ever.

You should make a Mt. Hood one, I would buy that for sure.

Make something with the Cascades and I'm in.

Hood is definitely coming, just need to figure out exactly what I want to do with it.

Cascades as well, although a little further out probably, for now we're just trying to sell out of these so we can afford to order another batch.

Thanks guys!
 
I'd get one if you came out with some more designs and could put colour in them. all your drawings are fuckin sweet. similar idea to what this guy does but done way differently

also, I don't know things about making t shirts, but I like them with BIG pictures on them rather than just the doodle in the center and squared. like the t-shirts jiberish used to make before they went all hip fashion

Yeah, That's something I've definitely thought about, honestly, I like wearing a little more understated shirts usually, although I would like to play with a bit of a wrap around side design at some point. Adding color would be really cool but ads a lot to the price unfortunately.

And that guy above puts out the sickest stuff! I found him after I saw the Jumbo Wild ad and now his stuff is a huge inspiration.

I will buy a shirt with this on it

I have always thought your drawings were rad. Wish I had the talent to contribute
