The brief

Gameday Stripes is an officially licensed LSU apparel brand I co-founded, made by fans, for fans. It has to hold its own next to Nike and the big licensed brands without their budgets, so the brand itself has to do the work.

The approach

I named it, wrote the slogan, and built an identity on athletic block lettering, LSU purple and gold, and a G emblem that works stitched on a hat as well as it does on a phone screen. Then I carried it into every product, post, and page.

Identity

The name, the slogan, a primary logo, a wordmark, a G emblem, and a purple, gold, and white palette.

Hat Club

The Hat of the Month Club was the heart of the line: exclusive hats, the only pieces we bought in bulk and kept in stock. I designed every one. Each monthly drop got its own post, built on one template so the feed stayed consistent.

Web & social

The same system runs the store and the feed. I designed the Shopify store to the brand and run it day to day.

The outcome

One identity carried through 270+ products, 14 exclusive hats, the website, and every post. A fan-run brand that holds its own next to the big licensed names.
