Hey everyone we have waited a long time to be able to announce this but the Malicious Intent tees are here and ready to roll. The printer did an AMAZING job.

We will be going live with the shop http://www.malicioustees.bigcartel.com on June 21st but we are having a contest to get the word out.

Most of our tees are accounted for bloggers, and local pre-orders but we do have a few to give away for fun!

All you have to do is make a comment on our blog! The first 20 people to comment on the blog and/or RETWEET my twitter post will be included in the drawing. The tee will be shipped out Monday!

Thanks for the support everyone and can’t wait to show you whats in the works for the rest of the summer line. We have plenty more crazy ideas and tees to show our love and inspiration for the 80’s and 90’s.

**Tees are printed on Alstyle 1701**
we have med-XL at the moment, but at the next reprint we are printing more sizes and some for the ladies!

Hey folks life has been busy over here at Integral Apparel. I am working really hard to get the release of my three different clothing lines off the ground and in peoples hands.

Besides Malicious Intent graphic tees and Spawned Ware::Clothing for Gamers, we also will be running more of a niche clothing lablel: Discreetly Greek. It will only house Alpha Phi Alpha t-shirts, apparel and pari, but when we start to grow we will add other designs from our sisters and brothers of the divine nine.

Discreetly Greek actually was created not only my love for my beloved Fraternity but for passion of Fraternity paraphernalia. It is hard finding Greek gear when it always has letters slapped on it. We want you to be able to go out and not worry about the drink in your hand or if someone is looking at you wild out in your pari!

It feels good to get everything in order and I can’t wait to start shipping myself and having fun with promo codes and getting into the show, and convention market.

I plan on having a booth up for the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity Inc. National Convention in New Orleans, Louisiana. So look out for us there.

Pre-orders will be ready to ship once we reach a total of 15 orders for any of the three shirts.

Malicious Intent :: Turtle Power Hi-res

•May 21, 2009 • Leave a Comment

Hereos in a half shell, Turtle Power!

Here is our new design and first print for Malicious Intent. This was illustrated by the great Cryface who usually does some hardcore band tees and some gorey stuff for brands and labels. He has a great style and nailed my iniital briefing when it came to art direction.

If you could fit 10 lbs of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in 5 lb bag this would be the result! Look for all the hidden messages and gems in this design from Bebops glasses, April Oneil’s microphone, to the original tube of ooze that started this whole TMNT phenomenom.

We plan to release our tees on the first day of summer so start saving those pennies now!
Cowabunga dudes!

Fashion show time!

•May 5, 2009 • Leave a Comment

Over the weekend we were in a fashion show! Ok well not me personally, but some of my artwork and tees that are now sold at the retail level.

The fashion show was held at the Coffman Memorial Union at the University of Minnesota . It was a talent show ran by the Black Student Union  and for intermission they had a fashion show using only local designs and talent! I was very siked and humbled to be asked to provide some gear for the event. I provided all my shirts that have shipped and printed from Springleap.  Unfortunetly my Malicious Bear design didn’t ship so I wasn’t able to use those as giveaways, but Ornamental My Dear Watson was a hit, and everyone loved the halftones!

Here is the poster that I did for the product table where some of my display items were and business cards and all that. I heard some of the other designers just gave up their logo to be blown up. I wanted to stick by my company motto:  Color outside the lines, by doing something different. I spent the night before after  downing a few beers got my creativity flowing!

This was fun and can’t wait to post some pics of the printed poster and some of the shots of the models rocking the tees. This is just the beginning of shows and events for Integral, once the ball is rolling with our new line, there is no limit to what shows and where my company is headed! Ok well besides money holding me back, but besides that small detail…
To the Batcave!! Pics coming soon!

Springleap tees are in!

Whew! Finally, after a long wait, my prints from October that won and now sold at Springleap.com finally got to my doorstep. I have been waiting for the tees forever, but with being custom cut and sewn and cotton picked right out of South Africa, they took longer to work out the kinks. But now prints are flying off the printers and off the shelves just as fast!

I think this design is fun and actually something my girlfriend would actually wear! It was fun to design as well, a lot different then stuff I do now! So guys go buy 1 or 2, or 13 or whatever, they are only about $19 USD the print is so amazing!

Spawned Ware update on prints!

•April 25, 2009 • Leave a Comment

We have been working day and night literally on Spawned Ware::Clothing for Gamers.  When we are not freelancing or working on art we devote our time to our two lines, one of them being Spawned Ware.

We first released some shirts last year, and boy was I excited,  but for some reason it felt rushed. I know working with a small niche of Gamers, I could easily target my market, but my designs didn’t reflect my true style,  nor did they scream GAMER designs to me!

I wanted to be simple, and fun as possible without always using the company logo(which isn’t even designed eek!) or brand name thrown into the shirt, I wanted to show that people who loves gaming, could also show their love for video games in a different way through their apparel.

With this first release, we are pleased that we can speak loudly to our demographic and cover up their harry ass chest all at the same time. We have more designs and crazy funky ideas in the works, but in due time, Daniel son…

Turtle Power!

•April 2, 2009 • 2 Comments

So I am cleaning up around the house, and stumble upon an old bag of action figures.  Most of them were toys from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles craze from the late 80’s and 90’s.
If your under 30,  you HAVE to  remember the Ninja Turtles!

After I found them I had to keep them around my work space so I can have some inspiration.

New business cards!

Hey folks, just keeping ya updated on my work here at Integral.

I finally got a chance to get some attractive business cards done for my Apparel and Design Co.
I think these reflect more of my style, favorite colors, and my services.

I got them from Vista Print, great company for any of your print needs, and they always have sales so you can always catch a good deal.  I received 500 cards, full color back and front , plus shipping for under $20! Say that three times fast!
