Nooo... Please, there are enough "lifestyle sports" out there.


Prices? Surely you should be paying me for wearing your logos?

um ooook ..... im talking about making clothes for spinners ..... with a spinning orientation not making spinning mainstream.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?

Vests and baggy / loose pants are always good...

A couple of balls short of a full cascade... or maybe a few cards short of a deck... we'll see how this all fans out.

Foxy via MiG's computer cuz mine no workies:

honestly, i don't see how ben-brand clothes are gonna be any more spinnerish than any old cotton clothes already avaliable... jeans and cotton shirts works fine for me in both everyday wear and while i'm spinning...

he could make the pants more like Gi trousers with the crotch panel for better movement... with a sneaky special pocket just for your lighter

There are some designers out there doing this already (names are not coming to top of mind right now..but I see them on ebay and have been to their stores).

So, why not see what they are doing and then think of a completely different way to go with it?

Surely that sounds like a good place to start.

As for things like hoodies, t-s, etc. they'd have to be really something to get me to buy them because the market is saturated with them already, and with computer designs and printers, I can make my own with the designs I love *really* inexpensively and not have to worry about another spinner duplicating (which I don't anyway).

That being said, I love cool color combinations because it stands out in stark contrast to fire colors and the typical colors used on non-fire toys (the yellows and reds). I enjoy these being highlighted with accents of metallics.

I hate black. It doesn't show off the body at all, and in any movement art, it should.

Designs I think should accent a body. Harsh lines like stripes and such (aside from maybe down the leg) tend to make the wearer look..eh. Love strong tribals and things with "personality". I can not stand flame patterns, with a heated passion actually. It's cliche, overused, not amusing and can be purchased at the nearest goth shop.

As for designs, the ideas you put forth seem very logo-ish to me. If you put out a "Common Ground" hoodie, then I would assume that proceeds will go to the event and would wear it proudly as a logo. (small on front, larger on back)

However for basic designs, I don't want it to look like a logo for several reasons. People won't pay attention to my spinning while they are trying to make out who I am representing on my clothes. And since I represent me, that is not something I wish to convey (and I know it happens as I will often be destracted by an overdone costume or a tattoo or writing rather than watching the performance, as do many people I know.)

So, there is my .02

Keep us informed as to how it is going!

i like hoodies
for logo perhaps small in front
and some with also the large logo in back
color wise i like black, and jewel tones, white for uv
you said spinning clothes, is it performers or just regular folk?
for spinning or for casual wear?
