Asphalt Enthusiast - Automotive Apparel

[defaultName]

I wanted to introduce to everyone my new site called Asphalt Enthusiast where I will be selling automotive apparel that I've designed.

Currently there is one shirt available and I have two others that are nearly finished. I wanted to start with one so I could get some feedback (about the design, the site, or anything else) before I finish the other two.

This is my first shirt called 'Fiedler & Hofmeister & Bracq & Luthe & Bangle'





Fans of The Beatles may recognize where the inspiration for this shirt came from and if not you can read about it here.

I wanted to do something different and make a car shirt that was a little more subtle then what is typically done. Something that non car enthusiasts (and even car enthusiasts who aren't too familiar with BMW in this case) wouldn't be able to immediately identify as a car shirt.

But what I'd really like to hear is your opinions so please let me know what you think.

Thanks!

Clever bastard - cool shirt.
I know it's an unpopular opinion, but in retrospect, BMW under Bangle wasn't bad. I love the e60 5er. I think it's really aging well. I much prefer it to the new 5 series - especially in e61 wagon form. Bangle's z4 was also pretty great...

I'm an asphalt enthusiast. What do you think about the porous asphalt freeways, I finally got to drive on the A22 in northern Italy when it was raining and is was amazing, zero spray coming off the car in front. I wish all the freeway in WA were made of high quality porous asphalt.

Thanks! The others that I have in the works are similar in style so you may like them as well.

It's funny because I've spent a lot of time in northern Italy and I never noticed the porous asphalt. I wonder how it holds up in freezing conditions?

Thanks! I'll see if I can come up with something dedicated to the Hofmeister kink.

Reddit's a tough crowd! Lots of Bangle fans over there :)

I do plan on scaling the design, I'm just not sure yet if every size will be scaled or every other size. There's a 6" width difference between a small and an extra large.

Thanks for the feedback but it's sort of integral to the design. You can read about why here.

Why do you post as 29.00 and have a sale on a new shirt and business for 24.00? Does it make people think they are getting it on sale?
