DorkiDori and Parts Shop MAX collaboration T's

[DC Dan MAX USA]

We are pleased to work with Lenn from DorkiDori 2010 Intro (http://www.dorkidori.com) clothing on some new designs for you guys. Lenn Franz is quite the artist so I just gave him some images and free reign over all of the designs - and here is the results!!

We just want to get you what you like so were putting it to a vote.

[Z33dori]

they are all to bad ass to pick....

[udon!]

stuck between #1-2.

they should make matts hood purple though.

dan, what does the kanji read?

[InlineS13]

Just have all of them made. I'm sure people will buy them, they are all nice designs.

[imnotmatt1189]

reallyy like #1 and #2!

[DC Dan MAX USA]

stuck between #1-2.

they should make matts hood purple though.

dan, what does the kanji read?

right the hood should be purple but i didnt want to make another screen so I think the grey stuff on that should be purple too

the kanji reads aim at the maximum angle but the coilover shirt kanji will change to read "designed for maximum lowness" (in kanji)

[slideways2004]

#3 is my favorite. #1 and #2 are pretty nice also.

I'm pretty sure all of the designs will sell

[ATLspeed]

I picked #1 only because I own a s13, so my vote is bias. But #5 is niiice

[FaLKoN240]

Leave the car all one color it looks cooler.

No purple please!

If you stopped with all the crazy/effeminate colors you'd probably have a larger group of people interested in buying.

Will the gold shirts just be gold in color, or gold FOIL?

[xBlastoisex]

all of them equal AWESOME!!!

[shift_jin]

i like them all!

[Iron_Zenki]

pssshhh. of course the s13 going to win most of you own them

[rbs14kouki]

i would by #2 and 3

[punxva]

its too hard to pick just one, but 1, 3, and 4 are my favorites.

[dorkidori_s13]

the grey in the BG of # 1 and 2 is supposed to be smoke from the tires

[DC Dan MAX USA]

my purple comment was in regards to #3 - for sure 1-2 needs to remain grey in the background because of the smoke

but now that I look at 3 closer the shadow under the white words makes sense in grey.

Im sure matt is not likely to keep the green and purple scheme in the future anyhow.

[Zacho]

3,4,5 I like. A bunch of japanese writing on a shirt makes me think walmart.

[ChiSleepyEyes]

picked 3 but i like them all. on another note
dorki you should expand into fitted hats, ive been lookin for a new fitted hat id totally buy one with a max design on it!

[bornslippy73]

Me rikey rikey #1.

[dorkidori_s13]

picked 3 but i like them all. on another note
dorki you should expand into fitted hats, ive been lookin for a new fitted hat id totally buy one with a max design on it!


hats are a whole 'nother ballgame...ive been looking at offering beaniehats though (the beanie with small bills in front)

im back to working dorkidori fulltime again so ive got a bit of time to research this stuff...once march is over and the new site is launch, plus the spring line launch...ill start looking into some new stuff for summer

[ILoveMyRHS13]

HOLY FUCK.

Why did I not see this sooner?

Can I buy all 5? HAHA.

Seriously, I can't even decide.

[mrchomponthis]

pls do not make #3 its terribly stupid in my opinion, and #5 reminds me of a hot topic shirt. I like #4.

[touge dreamer]

#4 fo sho...

[LayNLow]

I like one and four myself. But I would like 1/2 better if the design was placed a little lower on the shirt. Just my .02c

[DC Dan MAX USA]

haha yet 3's leading in the poles... something for everyone here I guess

5 may look like something you have seen before but upon closer inspection its pretty unique
I sure could have used some of that reinforcement when I broke 4 bones at once in canada lol

any opinions on graphic on the front versus backside of the shirt?

[yarou]

pls do not make #3 its terribly stupid in my opinion, and #5 reminds me of a hot topic shirt. I like #4.

#5 (while being a neat design) screams BRO

[Gaijin Smash Wayhoff]

I like all of them. Whoever did the design work is talented. I personally prefer #1, #2, and #3

[D.Adams]

i want them all ..

[tootall4la]

I reallly liked number 1
buT ALSO #2 #5

[CamryOnBronze]

These are looking good! Nice illustration work...

[amdnivram]

think 3 would be better if it just had part show max at top instead of the current script.

[sincity_sil80]

i like 1 and 5.. but as said befor.. my choice is a little biased cuz i rock a s13.. they are all nice designs tho.. good job!

[Deviousjet]

I think you should put the design in the back and just a little powered by max graphic on the front of the shirt I personally hate when the design is up in front.

[Soup Nazi]

#5 for me.........

[nismo 240sx]

fuck they are all sick i like one and two i could pick one so i chose 3 cuz you get both in one =)..there all bad ass

[irritatedmax]

Could you tone down the graphics? How about one with just the MAX logo? I may be the minority.

I want to support PSM, but I can't get behind any of these designs. I guess I'll just keep buying hard parts.

[aled]

All 5.

I'd buy em. They are awesome.

[kyoru]

good shit :)

[Drift_Monkey]

i lke 1,2,3,5 and id love to get them haha so hopefully ull be making all of them

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Buy the tsuiso shirt that MAX sells then? :boink:

[adrians_s13]

I hate to admit, I didn't like ANY of the dorkidori shirts before (just not my style)...

but these designs are nice!

what kind of shirts will these be printed on? I'd buy if they were on some really thin breathable shirts like BDG or something. Please no AAA or Pro-club type thick shirts

[SDS13COUPE]

:bowdown: to #5. Bad ass design.

[240sxvaj]

#5 is pretty crazy looking. guaranteed to get people looking at your shirt for a long while lol!

i want one! XL shipped! how much lol!

[way2fastforu]

i picked shirt #1 cos i own an s13 but love them all:)

[Okinawandrifter87]

Ill def buy 1-4!! Too hard to choose from so Ill buy em all!

[dorkidori_s13]

good shit :)

and thats coming from mr import bible himself!!!!

i take that as a HUGE compliment btw...im still jealous of your work ;)

[roboticnissan]

Ahh I'm not loading the pictures to vote!

[didderson]

Wow I love them all. My fav is 3 though!
I'd rock all but 2 because I don't have enough s14Zenk love :P
Deffff ordering one.

[FaLKoN240]

I want 1 and 2.

These are the first shirts you've made that I can actually see myself wearing.

[jayrawr]

damn theyre alllll good ! cant really choose only 1

[dorkidori_s13]

damn theyre alllll good ! cant really choose only 1


i want your hatch =(


come on number 3...lucky number 3!!! *crosses fingers for #3*

if you cant tell...thats my fav out of them all ;)

[ALEXTHESUS*PECT]

for your comapny 4 makes the most sense. you might sell more if you make 3 though. covers the biggest group of people.

[nismo 240sx]

am in for 3 too...

[Marcus]

i would like 5, but design on the back.
how about one with dan the man's PartShopMax S15 or R334. im gonna buy one regardless tho.

[Knuckles]

I think you should put the design in the back and just a little powered by max graphic on the front of the shirt I personally hate when the design is up in front.

im with him^

how about #5 on the back and #4's MAX logo in the front...either centered or over the heart..?:goyou:

[180 drifter]

i like 1 and 4. those are my favorites

edit: actually looking at them i personally think you should offer designs 1 and 2 for the front of the shirt and put design 3 on the back of them. and 4 should be the front of a shirt with 5 as the back. would look pretty kick ass IMO

[sdterrible1]

i like 1-3. Im gona say 3 looks the best. They all look great tho and wouldnt mind having them all!!

[DriftDamage]

I would buy 1, 3, & 4 if it was possible!!

Voted for 1 since im an S13 myself :p lol

But seriously, even though this vote is to decide which to mass produce, would it be possible to special order the other designs?
I really want 1, 3, & 4!! :D

[ILoveMyRHS13]

If #3 is picked, could you possibly make Matt's hood purple?

[hOngsterr]

1) I like the color scheme, voted!

2)not really digging it, green might be a tad dark?

3) i like bit, but has a bit much for my taste.

4) i digg it, simple.

5) is a def bro shirt, too busy, feels like an affliction shirt lol.

IMO

[h815 240sx]

do they come in any other color then black?

[dorkidori_s13]

im a little confused with peoples take on afflictions shirts...i personally think the artwork and printing on those tees is phenomenal...from an artisitic stand point theyre bloody awesome!!!

now is the negative image that revolves around them just from the people who wear them?? or is there some kind of common consensus that the artwork is also crap too??

[S14Serge]

Dam all these t-shirt's look hella clean, would purchase any of these on the spot!:coold:

[Jav1997GSX]

1 and 3 definetly have to be made I want both

[DC Dan MAX USA]

offer designs 1 and 2 for the front of the shirt and put design 3 on the back of them. and 4 should be the front of a shirt with 5 as the back. would look pretty kick ass IMO


In regards to fronts ad backs ~ I agree with this (without combining 4&5 thats too much on one shirt)

smaller graphics on the front larger ones on the back...so...

1-2 front
3 back
4 front
5 back

We should make them all becuase people like them all
Or if someone would not buy one design someone else would
and I'll just use the poll numbers to decide how many to stock of each design

this is logical right? should make everyone happy?

[adrians_s13]

its the people... definitely the people... lol

their artwork is awesome... its the spikey headed guidos that create the negative image.

HELL YA!!! That sounds PERFECT!!! :bigok:
I want to know as soon as the shirts are in stock!
I would take 2 shirts 1 (#1 front, #3 back) and 1 (4 front, 5 back)

[beeracing s14]

no 5 can be an ed hardy design lol

[Witness]

1, 2, and 3 is hawtt.

[240bch]

I like em all!!!! sorry but I really can't choose

[240sxdriftin]

You should probably make all of those...

[Mister.E]

#2 FTMFW, shit's fire

of course there are about eleventy billion more S13 owners than there are S14 owners so i'm sure #1 will end up in the top spot

[Soup Nazi]

This.......

[Jimmy Up]

Not gonna lie to you guys, those shirts are beautiful. Good work gentlemen. Voted for 3, full prints are more my style.

Shooting you a PM for that SAK right now, ALMOST slipped away lol.

[s14_rob]

i would buy 1 and 2 i like 2 the most tho

[bornslippy73]

Why are these shirts not printed already?!?!?! lol....I'm ready to buy I'm ready to buy!!!! lol

Print #1 at least and see how the demand really is. I prefer nothing printed on the back, but that's me. Print or no print on the back I'd buy #1 right meow!!!

[Okinawandrifter87]

All I know is im ready with paypal as soon as these shirts are ready so I can be in the first shipment to get some of these fresh shirts!

[speedgod^s13]

I picked 1, because I don't know who the hell this Matt guy is, on the #3 shirt. Also, i'm not a big fan of black clothing, any chance of these shirts in white?

unfortunately these designs will not work on white shirts...in tshirt design you have to keep in mind the color of the cloth in order to make designs work properly as you have a very limited color palette to work with due to screen count

[DC Dan MAX USA]

speedgod, Id like to introduce matt powers

[Red Dragon3]

I hate afflictions shirts and ed hardy designs. Flames, tribes, skulls, hearts are just a no go.
I like things simple. I hate tee shirts that go overboard with cheap designs. Your shirt should not scream for attention. Keep it clean and simple.

IMO i like number 4 with the coilovers.

[Jakob]

love all those design and i love black tshirts
i picked the coilover shirt because thats what pbm is about isnt it?

[JayDee M Rolly]

#2 FTMFW, shit's fire

of course there are about eleventy billion more S13 owners than there are S14 owners so i'm sure #1 will end up in the top spot
thats why i voted number #3 lol.

but i love #2 as well.

[TurboFC3C]

Not gonna lie, I would buy every single one, but i'm more particular to number 5, that's so unique.

Great job!

[Okinawandrifter87]

[DC Dan MAX USA]

yup just about one more week

[sleeper108]

did i miss a price? and what shirts are being made, or is it just the winner?

1, and 4 are my favorites.


did you guys contemplate just putting "Powered by max" near the collar on the back of the shirts (kind of between the shoulder blades) when the designs for the shirts are on the front?

sorry if i missed answers to the questions ^^;;

[dorkidori_s13]

UGH...my laptop doesnt like my wireless connection...going to try and post this for the 4th friggin time :(

there will be PBM logos located on the opposite sides of the shirts where the main prints arent

screens will be burned this week...should have pics of the real shirts asap...shirts will be available for order from PBM in the next week or so...good things come to those who wait ;) (im really excited to get them into print...i think they turned out awesome personally ;))

[dorkidori_s13]

lol...cant believe people are still voting

pictures of the shirts will be along next week ;)

(i just got the screens in today...burning them tomorrow)

[cIutchkick]

i would buy them all!!

[SHINCHU]
