Retro Ocean Apparel Logo Design

Job ID: 39992666

Budget: $30 – $250 AUD

I’m building a small clothing line for people who spend most of their time outdoors and on the water, and I need a logo that immediately feels like sun-faded logos, old postcards, and salt-washed tees. The overall look should be unapologetically retro, with earth-toned inks that echo sand, kelp, and weathered driftwood rather than anything neon or hyper-modern. I have many inspiration images I will send to you to get started.

Key visual cues I’d like to see worked in are flowing wave patterns and a generally “surfy,” vintage vibe—think hand-drawn curves or subtle distressing rather than crisp vector edges. I’m open to how you balance illustration and typography so long as the finished mark can scale from a chest print to a woven label without losing its charm.

Please present a few distinct logo concepts (at least three) so I can gauge different directions before we refine one to final artwork. Deliver each concept as a high-resolution vector in AI. Plus web-ready PNG and a simple brand board showing the exact color values you choose.

Once we land on a winner, I’ll need one round of revisions for color tweaks or minor line adjustments. If that sounds doable, I’d love to see your portfolio of similar retro or ocean-inspired work.
