S chassis owners...i have a request for you...

[dorkidori_s13]

A long story short...i have been working on getting my shirts into various nationwide chains...unfortunately...a lot of these chain stores dont see the import world as we do...they tend to think "car clothing, oh it must be along the lines of nascar"...they are, however, completely wrong.

what i would love to ask you guys is im sure a lot of you shop in various clothing stores like hot topic, anchor blue, zumez, and journeys for your various apparel items...if you could, when you visit these stores (esepcially hot topic and journeys) ask the person behind the counter if they carry DorkiDori Clothing...when they say no, please ask them for their customer service number...call that number and request their stores to carry DorkiDori Clothing...give them my website address or phone number if youd like (website would be much easier)

currently my latest goal is to get my shirts and various items into nationwide stores so you guys can have easier access to my shirts...there are a lot of designs ive done lately that require MUCH larger orders than any web forum can allow for...the shirts are "all over printed" shirts (which means theyre designs that are very similar to the stuff you see from no fear, ed hardy, ecko brand and various other companies)

as zilvia has been my home for my clothing line for over a year and a half now, you guys are one of my driving forces for my business and i want desperately to take it to the next level...i am frustrated that i cant offer you guys the designs i WANT to...but due to the small order quantities i receive, that cannot be a reality until i can fullfill 500-5000 quantities in ordering

so please, go to your local mall, find the stores your really like and request that they carry DorkiDori Clothing...i would heart you all for it even if just 200 people made a simple phone call

thanks guys :D

ps: i have new S chassis shirts on the way...look for them in the next week or so ;)

[Enna]

I'm not sure about chain shops like hot topic and zumies, but I know that our shop gets MANY emails/phone calls about people trying to promote their, "hot and upcoming line".

As someone who runs a clothing store, I will tell you that your best bet is to go store to store in person and try to sell your brand that way.

It's going to take a lot of work and dedication, but that comes with the territory.

Also, I suggest you start trying to sell your brand through shops on consignment first. That way they don't have to worry about spending money on a new brand in this economy with a high chance of yielding only a negative profit.

On another note, while I don't think you should give a shirt away just because someone is asking around for you, I do think that you should help out the person who helps get you the account open.

It's an incentive for people to try harder and promote your business.

[240SXsaint]

hey i just noticed you were in las vegas. ill head over to the BLVD Mall(its close to me and that mall is pretty good on having what u want) and spread the word for you

Mel, I did retail in a store that had like 15 stores in NC and VA while in college. I see what you're saying, but it seems that he is trying to gain teeth on a national level. He has either done (or foregone, as it were, through the internet) the local/regional thing, and now wants a little help from those who have helped to where he is currently.
Yes, what you're suggesting would DEFINITELY be beneficial in the end, but what he is asking for definitely will not hurt one little bit.

no shit. I think about that episode of hey arnold every time i hear the world qualm.

[s14xman]

The designs are very nice, i would recomend these to stores as mentioned but i think they need at least small logos/brand name on the sleeve and/or back by the neck. And I think there is way too much pink going on. Just my opinion, thats what i look for in a nice tee.

[Banegraphix]

Zumies would probably be the only store that would actually carry these shirts, I tryed to get shirts in HT before and even with a recomendation from 2 store managers, a district manager and proving I have the capacity to produce X amount of units per quarter it still got shot down by them. If I were you I would send a email of my line to mail order parts companies or performance shops.

What style shirts do you use and are they printed with plastisol or waterbased inks?

[iHeartTheTouge]

i dont go clothes shopping very often but i'll send some emails.

actually i went to the mall today and did just that...unfortunately...most of the stores in vegas malls are ALL corporate owned and theyre not allowed to order outside of the corporate catalogue (i spoke to a lot of the store managers and they have strict policies about that)

phlip basically summed it up right there...im not worried about local sales at all...i do enough of those attending and selling at drift events (and btw local guys...i will be at the vegasdrift event on the 24th with TONS of shirts for sale...ive got about 50-60 shirts on hand right now) and my main target is nationwide recognition as that will increase website sales ten times over

someone mentioned something above about having a logo on the back of the shirts...my old shirts featured nothing on the back (as some of you havent purchased from me in MONTHS)...all of my shirts since november have my logo and website address printed on them near the neck on the back ;)

[s14vagabond]

just start ur own shop.

[drifter_for_life06]

i have to go to the mall anyway tomorrow, so ill go into hot topic journeys and maybe a few others and fulfill your request.

your welcome :)

[Persona]

:hsdance:Will do my part to try to help out.

[dorkidori_s13]

just start ur own shop.

that costs quite a bit of money that i dont have right now ;)

[drifter_for_life06]

are anchorblue and zumiez a west-coast or mid-west thing? Ive never heard of either in PA/NY/MD/SC/FL. Maybe im just going to the wrong malls?

EDIT: Nevermind, used PHLIP's links and noticed AB is not on the east coast(xcept a few stores in GA/FL) and Zumiez is around, ive just never seen one

[dorkidori_s13]

yah...its all pretty much west coast stuffs

[sr20sean]

i called zumiez and hot topic asking them to sell the clothing and gave them the website
i also talked to a local-ish shop called tsx.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

I'm good friends with some Zumiez associates; I'll see what I can do.

[dub40sx]

IDK if this has been said but going through them will only lead to mark ups and higher costs for the consumer. Plus you will be getting random tools wearing cool clothing that dont know shit about what they got.

I understand you are trying to spread though and get bigger.

Good luck bro.

[Alan_s14]

I'm from Mexico but i do most of my shopping at El Paso Texas every once in a while, i'll try to pop the question about DorkiDori Clothing. I love you designs and if you some day see Mexico as a good market for your clothing let me know i can be your sales man here!

Good Luck anyways!

[Witness]

Before they hit the shelfs,
PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR COLLARS perhaps switch up the blank tee brand. Im sure none of us would mind paying $20 for a thick quality shirt.


your shirts are like OBEY t-shirt collars stretched the hell out!!
Thats something that pissing me off about clothing and usually makes me not wear a shirt.
I bought two shirts from you their fucking awesome! I loved the design and props for giving love to the s-chassis/drift scene. But im not satisfied with the collar and im on the verge of taking them to the Taylor to do have something done about that.

Anyway ill send some emails it would be dope to see your stuff at a local mall, or shop.

im sorry...im confused...what exactly is it you dont like about the collars?? too small or too large?? and i believe youre the first person whos complained about them (just pointing out something thats never been brought to my attention...not meant in a negative way)

well those "tools" will allow for me to bring out designs i havent been able to in the past...basically if i can bump up my ordering quite a bit more...i can afford to do things that i think YOU GUYS deserve (my current restrictions are getting frustrating to me)

and as far as mark ups go...dont worry about it...i will always keep the shirts for sale on the website and forums...espcially zilvia (given you guys are the reason i have a business in the first place)

[dorkidori_s13]

btw...i appreciate you all helping in this...it means a lot to me :)

[SuicidnS13]

Just a note most clothing brands blow up with events, mixers and fashion shows. Think cheap, think college level, then club level, then host pool parties. Trust me I was their when Ed Hardy blew up and I threw one of his first fashion events at Tao nightclub here in vegas. PM me if you want some real promoting advice kiddo. Ive been in that industry for almost 10 years now. Models will work for free clothing and Im sure people like Joel (NV240sx) would love to get more exposure for his work also for a small fee to help you out. No offense(take it as constructive critisicm) but the models used on your site would not entice me to purchase your clothing. Your tshirt designs how ever are interesting and could definately go places. Choose the right market to market to (one with money and recognition) and things will work out for you.

[AutoTune]

I got to say for a automotive related t-shirt you are def going in the right direction making it less dorky and giving it more of a mainstream urban hiphop/skater feel to it. Not quite there but you are going in the right direction.

I also must agree with the poster above me that the people who are your "models" both men and women alike are not exactly very appealing and would make someone want to buy your shirts. Plain asian girls, dorky white guys and over weight Filipinos are not exactly people who make your shirts look good.

I hate to burst your bubble but this type of clothing will not make it in the mainstream market.

ive been meaning to respond to this post for a while now...ive just spaced it off

the NV240sx situation...i no longer do any sort of business with joel nor do i promote my brand on his website at all (ive known joel since 2003...im pretty much one of the oldest 240 guys in vegas)...i honestly stay out of the local 240sx/drift market altogether here in vegas...there was a situation that came up locally about a year ago that just showed me a lot of what this town is about...after that...i had no desire to promote in this town to the local car scene kids

with the club scene...i know jack shit about that...i stay out of the club scene...i dont drink...i cant stand mainstream american music...with the way i dress normally and when i go "out", im not allowed in "normal clubs" (they dont appreciate beanies, chain wallets and high priced skate shoes...basically finnish goth fashion is a no no in mainstream clubs)...so im completely clueless as how to promote in the club scene...its not something ive ever thought about actively persuing...but i do understand your point of reaching the "general masses"...it may be something ill persue one day...but at the moment...anything involving spending that kind of money to host a night at a local club and not receive immediate reimbursement is a dangerous avenue for me given im BARELY making bills and rent with the money im making with DD at the moment

and the model situation...those arent models on my site...theyre my customers...a good chunk of them are zilvia forum members...i plan on having a professinal modelling shoot done one day...i have multiple friends who shoot locally (one shoots for a variety of automotive magazines actually)...a few of my vendors are nice enough to do professional shoots for their online catalogues and send me over pictures from the shoot when theyre finished

i think a few of you who have commented in this thread with more "harsher" replies dont realize that i am my clothing line...and a lot of your suggestions i am TRYING to persue...but between designing all of my own shirts, making sure my print vendor stays on time, dealing with billing/orders, running errands for the company, packing shirts on thursdays/fridays and the other 200 things i do, my time is very limited and so is my pocket book at the moment...things are getting better...but its a slow progression...i appreciate everyones advice in this thread and i understand that some of you feel success is easier to obtain than others do, but i am just now walking on my own...im getting to the point where im almost learning to jog..but not quite...one day i will be running with the best of them

but until then...YOU guys are the people who will make difference in how my business does and what vendors will actually give thought to picking up my shirts in a nationwide chain...given you guys are the ones who BUY the shirts...without you i dont have a business

[AutoTune]

Come to think of it...has any import/sport compact related clothes hit it big in the mainstream? I really can't think of any brand that has or any brand for that matter. Not just to shoot you down but just trying to be realistic here.

I think your designs are great for being automotive related but I think if you really wanna make it big you that same talent to design more hiphop/urban/skater type wear. Your designs already have that urabn feel to them for lack of better words. Clothes that like can much more main mainstream apeal if you really want to make it big.

[dorkidori_s13]

there are 3 companies right now producing car clothing that is worth a damn...DorkiDori (me..heheh hi), JimmyUp and ImportBible

i believe im the only one whos pushing to become mainstream...im pretty sure Mike over at jimmyup does this as a hobby/side project and ImportBible is a fun thing for the designer to do (correct me if im on ANY of this)

but the reason im trying to push it so hard to any of these stores is that the import automotive market is the same market as the hiphop/urban/skater market...all the same people who attend drift events or import drag racing events are the same people that shop in zumiez and hot topic and journeys...theyre you, me, that guy over there, and the mutants at table 9 (sorry needed to throw a wedding singer quote in that list)...but the point being i think its never hit big in the mainstream because its never had people like me, mike and IB doing what were doing with it

i spent YEARS trying find a fashionable car clothing line...i wanted to say to the world "hey...i love my car...its on my shirt...and its fuking STYLISH"...NO ONE made anything that was remotely fun...i started the idea for dorkidori back in 2006 cause i was sick of trying to find stylish car clothing...i made my first shirts in oct of 2007 and sold all 20 of them in 3 days...so there IS a market out there...its just trying to get retailers to understand that their customers are the people right here on this forum that buy my shirts

[AutoTune]

Without getting into too much detail. Sporting how much of a car dork you are on a shirt or jacket does not have mass mainstream appeal. There is a market it for it but only to a certain extent. As big as the tuning scene and cars in general someone would have broke through a long time ago in this market. Thats just my thought. Good luck.

I would say its pretty tough in the US market, but why don't you go the online route to have car shops like phase2motortrends, FRSport.com, etc etc sell your shirts (Start Small). Start with the online distribution to get some steam first. Maybe they won't sell too much or maybe you can have limited editions for each retailer to help represent them. Get in the brick and motars by starting online, then can you maybe work towards a person who represents your clothing like Dai or Tarzan or some Drifter where you Sponsor their clothing on TV. Look at how Tap Out did it and now they are all over the place, see how they started. They did it this way and it worked, so why start the ball all over again? Just my .02...

But you need to rethink about selling at HIN or having stands at drag races, then gradually moving up to Formula D, D1 Underground, etc etc.... Those things work as not everyone is on a forum that might like your shirts. ITS CRAZY, but true....

Will try to spread the word in the NYC area for u. Nice shirts

[dorkidori_s13]

i had a booth at last years formula D here in vegas...it was good exposure...but the cost of doing an event far out weighs the profit (basically i made back less than half of what i spent for the event)

ive been working on smaller vendors lately...right now the two big ones i have are infiniti of scottsdale and nissan of duarte (rather mynismo.com)...those 2 dealers are a step in the right direction as they have major influence and attention from the nissan crowd in general (and im not talking just 240 kids)

and i am sponsoring a well known driver...hes not in the celebrity status like tarzan and millen are...but hes getting there...his name is Nathan Brasz...ive been working with him for over a year now...hes one of the TOP drifters out there (i think)...but i do understand your point and it will come eventually...your suggestion is a good one but youve left out a major factor...money...it costs ALOT of money to sponsor and support pro level drivers like the ones you listed...i was talking to autobacs and takatori last year...just to have a sticker on his rear windshield for the season...$5,000...that is alot of monies i dont have to blow on advertising like that...i have been looking to take out a few ads in import magazines to reach people that are not on forums...but im still working with the costs on it at the moment

basically what it all boils down is this...alot of the suggestion im receiving in here are awesome ones...though some are more harsh/negative than others...i do appreciate everyones input...the one factor that many people seem to miss is the cost factor involved...i know you have to spend money to make money (i dont mind spending a few hundred and there to promote and such)...but when youre talking about $1,000...$3,000...$5,000...i cant float that kind of dough at the moment without 100% reassurance that i will be compensated for the investment as a $5,000 spendature with no immediate return would basically sink me completely

[slider2828]

Dude I completely understand your point about advertising dollars. But can you be giving away shirts or at a discount? I do marketing, its my profession and what my MBA is in and I completely understand about advertising dollars. I used to work for a very well known Honda Import Shop up here in North Cali.

Yeah I completely understand what you mean by Formula D booths and stuff like that, but only thing is the exposure is what you are going for. Unfortunately we all know in industry, booths lose money, hands down. Drifting loses money, but that is real money unfortunately we can't calculate what is ACTUALLY made in terms of advertising exposure in the long run.

You just gotta keep plugging away at vendors and do something special for each of them. Limited Edition shirts, and maybe also segment shirts for region, so you can create demand instead of overselling and saturating your market. So there is special NorCal and SoCal Shirts, such as color schemes. Some East Coast/West Coast Edition and obviously anniversary editions. These things build hype and demand.

Yeah unfortunately, for events you just have to know peeps that is all. Do hats, please do hats, shirts can't be seen in photo's so maybe your drifters can all get hats (Redbull) does this. Also there are some very well know people here, like Luke(Blu808) who works closely with a well known BMW shop and Works which is a evo shop. Also kognition since he does the time attacks.

Also here is a tidbit, you gotta create videos. Here is the free advertising stuff that works very very well. Create short videos and maybe work with Josh Harrington(SP?) he posts here too and in socal, he is getting a following. Facebook and Youtube and Vimeo channels use those. As much as your driver promotes your company, you have to promote him as a driver. These are free, but VERY high exposure things. This sort of media is the best. Dude sometimes you can randomly do stuff with the guys like Tarzan and stuff like that. Walk up and say, "Hey I am trying to start a clothing line, here is a shirt and just say hi to the camera." It works... hahaha

im going thru a few problems with my current printer that im trying to remedy...but once the printing situation is sorted and the new catalogue is ready for PDF, i will be going back to all of these shops again (well calling them and emailing them is more like it) and i will see if you guys made difference ;) (and dont forget guys, i appreciate EVERYONES help!!!)

so update...i spoke with hot topic over the last few days...they still refuse to carry anything i make...even after all of you have been requesting my stuff from them (theyre not even budging on any of the Black Umbrella stuff...which for the most part is directly music related)

i will be trying zumiez and a few others this week to see if i can get anything thru to them

i just wanted to say that no matter what happens...i appreciate EVERYONE who took the time out of their lives to help me with this project...you all should be very proud of yourselves that you took time to help a random human being youve never met in your life :)

its very good karma
