We need a long-sleeve T-shirt design for an extreme kayak fishing team. The shirt will be orange, or maybe white, so the type needs to be black and/or blue.
For the back of the shirt, we need “cool” lettering – custom or a modification of an existing font – that reads:
TEAM
NAUTICAL
VENTURES
For placement info, see enclosed mock-up photo – (you can make lettering bigger or position differently, but we would like letter block diagonal and mostly legible.)
The design on the front of the shirt will be a stacked strip using the words
Extreme
Kayak
Fishing.”
The words “Extreme” and “Fishing” will be a script font – not baroque script, but “extreme/radical” type of script.
The word Kayak will be broken up and stacked in the following fashion:
- Top line: capital K and A, in a block font.
- Second line: the letter “Y” formed from an illustration of a Kingfish or Dolphin tail.
- Third line: capital A and K, in a block font.
The word “Extreme” will sit on top of the “kayak” block, and the work “Fishing” below, so it reads
Extreme
KA
Y
AK
Fishing
Target Market(s)

Requirements
Must have
- Everything outlined in brief. This is a very specific assignment.
Nice to have
- Lots of leeway with "look and feel." See target market above... like to have something that market would perceive as "cool" and "rad" -- hand-drawn, weathered look preferred.
Should not have
- Structured, grid-like and corporate look/feel. These are young sportsmen with an "outlaw," mano-a-mano (mano-a-kingfish) mentality. Want rugged, individualistic feel to the artwork.
