Hey Steemians. What better way to kick off the New Year than rocking some stylish & fresh new threads! Seriously though, moving from one year to the next almost feels like stepping into a time-machine. With the development of new tech start-ups & fresh visionaries on the rise, nothing literally feels impossible! I mean, I can send you Steem! Something I had absolutely no clue about 3 Months ago! And everyone loves a FREE GIVEAWAY so that’s exactly what I’m about to do.

So without further ado, I bring to you...

CUSTOM-MADE STEEMIT APARREL

How the design came about?

First of all, a huge thank you to @dunja for supplying the Steem logo in a range of formats. Seriously, you’re a life saver.

Now, I know I wanted something fresh. Something new, hip and cool. I often found myself pacing back and forth between designs, re-evaluating the what, why and how.

• What will the finished product be a representation of?
• Why am I doing this?
• How can this bring value to the Steemit Community?

With each of these points in mind, I was able to stay focused on the task at hand. I wanted to create a movement. A shift.

You know that feeling you get when you purchase a brand new pair of Jordan’s or a Gucci handbag. And you wear it with pride, you show it off because, well ultimately YOU CAN. Those endorphins start kicking & you can’t help but feel like you’ve obtained something of great value.

Now… I know you wouldn’t go strutting around in a pair of flip flops from Walmart. Why? Because it just doesn’t give you that “feel good feeling” and you don’t get the same rush of endorphins as you would when you purchase something from a reputable brand.

So that’s how this particular design came about.
• Something fresh
• Something of value
• Something to kick those endorphins into gear

The purpose behind the apparel

For me, the main purpose behind creating apparel for the Steem block chain, is to raise awareness. The Steem ecosystem, depends on it’s users to promote the platform in any way possible. Many users have already taken to Social Media boomers, like Instagram, Youtube, Facebook etc.… to make known of the Steemit Community. I believe that creating a fresh, new design, to get people talking and wondering about “the brand”, opens new doors for opportunities. And like I mentioned before, who doesn’t want to feel good rocking some fresh new threads.

Where to from here?

My aim isn’t to stop at just one design. This is where YOU get your chance to have your say. I want to collaborate ideas with people from all walks of life. Just like modern day technology, the demand to keep these systems up and running, up to date, and in the now, is something I want to contrast with Steem block chain Apparel. Fresh ideas, fresh concepts, fresh minds, noticing a trend before a trend and capitalizing on these opportunities. I believe that the more involvement we can get through utilising the Steem Apparel, the bigger of an impact we can make as a community here on Steemit and in other Social Media streams.
