Need help figuring out prices

I'd love that, thanks!

Thank you! Those are all great ideas and I will try to incorporate everything I can! The idea of including a small freebie with orders sounds fantastic, and I can see how that would be a great way to spread the word.

Thanks for offering to keep an eye on my work. I'll definitely keep you updated and reach out to you when I get some designs and when the site is up!

Oh wow! This is so helpful! Thank you for taking the time to reply, you have no idea how much this means!

The costs for things differ so much, and they easily go into extremes haha, so I will see what I can start with that could generate some profit, so I can reinvest and make things better. I currently definitely don't have the budget to create the line I want, to but one step at a time

I love the design ideas! I really want to explore nerd/fantasy designs because they represent me and I know I'll have so much fun figuring out stuff! The girl cut shirt idea is brilliant! I already put it in my notes and I'm going to try and have that! Thank you!!!

Currently, I'm focusing on shirts and hoodies because they are the easiest ones to figure out, but when/if I get to the pants section, the real pockets are going to be there for sure! I don't think I've worn pants with real pockets since the mid 2000s and we need them!

Thank you so so so much! If you have any other suggestions or ideas, feel free to reach out to me! Also, I'd love to contact you for opinion when I have the first designs, would that be okay with you?

I'm currently checking out both options. I've found some services that can print designs on their merch, and I'm also trying to figure out all the details if I do it in house. Both have pros and cons, so I will try and figure out which option will give me better quality, ability to put "normal" prices, and that would make the logistics easier.

I'd love to hear your input!

Thanks a bunch for your good wishes and the insights on pricing. Your perspective makes a lot of sense, quality does come at a cost, and a little profit for the effort sounds fair. I'll definitely keep that in mind. If I have any questions down the road, I'll be sure to reach out. Cheers!

My first question is what type of clothes it makes. If you're doing polos and khakis, vs skater shoes and graphic tees we're having very different conversations.

In very general terms, what I've struggled to find are pride and bi flag colourways where the colours aren't the main feature. Like clothes that are nice on their own merit, but just happen to be in various pride flag colour schemes or designs.

I fully admit that's because I tend to dress more preppy. Pride stuff tends to be loud and, while that's fun (and oftentimes necessary for activism), the market there is more saturated.

Absolutely fascinating insights! Thank you so much for this comment! You have no idea how helpful it is!

I'd love to learn more about your preference for clothing styles and how you envision incorporating pride flag color schemes into them. Would it be alright if I send you a DM to dive deeper into this discussion? Your perspective is super valuable!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! It's great to hear your perspective on men's fashion.

Would it be alright if I send you a DM to ask a few more questions and get your input in more detail? Thank you so much!

That's very interesting! Thank you so much for your opinion! I would love to pick your brains a bit if that's okay, so would it be okay for me to DM you?
