    I'm working on starting a fitness/motivation/hustle lifestyle apparel company, and am testing out design ideas on teespring.

    Would you wear it? If not, why?

    No, I feel like I'm to old for wearing shirts with motivational lines

    The word "Pushing" being on 2 lines makes it weird and harder to read

    Don't ever EVER put one word on two lines when it comes to design.

    I personally wouldn't but there are many many people that love those type of shirts , I always found it a bit cringe. Each to his own though.


    I like wearing t shirts that hug the arms, so perhaps that is a factor you might want to consider, the way it fits and how it looks.

    I prefer clean, simple and subtle clothing. So perhaps a piece of clothing with just the word "beyond" would be nice, or "admire", it's subtle, and still has a similar effect as that motivational quote without being too try hard. Field specific lexis.

    Personally no. But I don't wear stuff like this.

    Just a suggestion but why don't you put the OVRCOME Believe & Succeed on the front of the shirt then on the back across the top the "Keep Pushing Don't Settle"

    so Front:
    OVRCOME
    Believe & Succeed

    Back Across the top:
    Keep Pushing Don't Settle

    Needs to be a short catchy phrase or word/words that describe your company. Such as everforward and gymshark. Once you get that down, make a logo that fits the phrase and is aesthetically appealing.

    Thanks for the responses everyone, for the dudes bringing hate without suggestion - i'd offer to whoop you, but you're most likely already working at McDonald's, in 10 years when you look back and start realizing how sad and pathetic your life has become (in between oxy comas), the whooping will set itself in.

    As for pushing being on two lines, i'm not a designer (i'm a web developer), my logic behind that was to draw more attention to the message.

    In theory, it will cause more people to actually read the shirt, because at first glance there's something wrong with it.

    I'll go back to the drawing board though, thanks dawgs.

    Is "overcome" your personal mantra? It's a clunky word that I don't think will ever pick up any kind of mainstream acceptance. Even if you misspell it.

    It sounds more negative than positive.

    "My grandparents were ovrcame by the poisoness carbon monoxide gas."

    Think a shirt with just "get ovr it." Would outsell that one.
