Sportswear Brand Design
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I'm looking for an experienced designer to create a unique and appealing design for a new adult-targeted sportswear brand. The project is urgent and needs to be completed ASAP.
Key Requirements:
- Original and marketable design concepts
- A strong understanding of adult sportswear trends
- Ability to deliver high-quality design assets
Theme: One Whose Touch Gives Life
This revision is meant to refine and elevate the existing design, not redesign it. I want to keep the current layout and concept, but improve execution so it feels more premium and intentional.
⸻
Overall Direction
Keep the current design structure exactly as is. The focus is on upgrading materials, cleaning up details, and making everything feel higher quality.
All elements should be done using embroidery, appliqué, or added materials — no standard print.
⸻
Front
* Keep current “Akanjí” placement and size
* Convert to raised embroidery (puff or high-density)
* Slightly refine spacing if needed for a cleaner, more luxury feel
* Keep the bird, but make it more subtle and elevated in execution (not flat)
⸻
Back – Text
* Keep: “One Whose Touch Gives Life”
* Maintain current placement and layout
* Convert to embroidery
* Clean up the font slightly if needed (sharper, more refined look)
⸻
Hands (Main Graphic)
* Keep the exact placement and concept
* Upgrade from print to embroidery + appliqué
* Simplify the detailing slightly so it looks cleaner and more premium
* Add slight depth (layered stitching or texture)
⸻
Birds
* Reduce the number of birds from the current design
* Keep only a few and place them intentionally (not scattered)
* Upgrade them using higher-quality stitching or textured embroidery
* Avoid flat, basic execution
⸻
Crystal / Detail Addition
* Add a subtle “falling” effect under the back text
* Use small crystals, studs, or similar materials
* Keep it controlled and centered — should enhance the design, not overpower it
⸻
Quote Adjustment
* Move: “The struggle ends when gratitude begins”
* From sleeve → to lower back area
* Keep it small, clean, and understated
⸻
Hood Detail
* Add a subtle embroidered element inspired by the Black Crowned Crane
* Focus on texture/pattern (not a full graphic)
* Placement should feel natural on the hood, not forced
* Keep it low-key but distinct
⸻
Key Focus
* Keep the design recognizable from the current version
* Improve quality, not complexity
* Reduce anything that feels unnecessary or repetitive
* Everything should feel intentional and well-placed
⸻
Goal
The final piece should look like a premium version of the current design, not a different design.
Cleaner, higher quality, and more refined — while keeping the same identity.
Ideal Skills & Experience:
- Proven experience in designing sportswear
- Strong portfolio showcasing similar work
- Excellent understanding of target market preferences
Please share your portfolio and a brief proposal.
