About the design

Submitted by Orbanya on February 12, 2010

This design is for the ‘Threadless Loves’ challenge “One Day Without…” sponsored by TOMS. It’s about change and helping your fellow man. How giving a gift as simple as a pair of shoes can change someone’s life for ever. Something so simple impacting someone in such a positive way- allowing them to achieve things not possible before.



My design reflects this theme by using a man (who needs no introduction) that lived simply, yet has had an profound impact on the world. He was a humanitarian and progressive thinker who’s first priority was the welfare of his fellow man.



I hope you enjoy the design.

Thanks so much everyone. I'm glad you like it. I'm glad you like the placement. I initially had it near the bottom, but it seemed more fitting on the chest. Thanks for noticing!

cool design, but i'm not sure what Gandhi's carrying. is it just a dark part of the robe? is he carrying soiled clothes? I'm confused.

He's carrying a blanket and a book. They are purposely left vague so as to not distract from the point, yet to add some dark contrast against the white shirt, and robes. Also helps illustrate the angle of the the light source.

Hope that clears it up for you! Thanks for the input!

Thanks!

brentendo

the design is cool, but also kinda lame at the same time. I like the thinking behind it but it's not something I'd wear on a tee

Thanks Solovo!

Brentendo- Thanks for the input. Could you be more specific on what you like/ dislike about it?

Cheers!

Great design and message. I'd like to see that quote on the shift somewhere. I'm not crazy about the cut but it's fantastic otherwise.
