Looking for some feedback from my friends here.
My SR Wear Atude business has been a monster of a learning curve. But now that I’ve finally realized what my product niche is — and more importantly, **who I’m creating it for** — I’m starting to gain some traction.
My products are geared toward **my people**.
People who have lived. People who have gone through s**t, fallen down, gotten back up, brushed themselves off and tried again.
It’s for the old rockers who still feel that beat inside them and still want to kick doors down — even if their bodies are saying, “No bloody way. Bedtime is at 9.”
I’m loud. My sister is loud. My whole damn family is loud. And I KNOW there are other people out there like me.
People who got older but didn’t get quieter.
People who still love the music loud, still have a little rebellion left in them, and have absolutely no intention of fading politely into the background.
**YOU are my people.**
YOU are the ones I’m trying to build this brand for.
**YOU are my tribe.**
So here’s where I could use your feedback.
Being a newer POD e-commerce business already comes with a pretty brutal learning curve, and all the changes around tariffs and cross-border shipping have added another layer to it.
I now work with two different print-on-demand companies. I would LOVE to have everything I sell printed here in Canada, and I’m very proud to be Canadian. Unfortunately, some of the specialized products that are a big part of SR — particularly my all-over-print hoodies and bomber jackets — simply aren’t available from my Canadian printer right now at the quality I want.
Other products, like mugs, DTG T-shirts and posters, I CAN have printed in Canada.
And that got me thinking...
I want to create a small collection specifically for my Canadian crowd. Not political. Not angry. Not “Canada is better than everybody else.”
Just **Canadian humour with some attitude.**
The kind of stuff Canadians recognize about ourselves and can laugh at. A little sarcastic, a little ridiculous, occasionally inappropriate — basically Canadian, but run through the SR filter.
It would have its own section on the SR website so it doesn’t change what the main SR brand is about.
**So here's what I really want to know:**
Would that kind of Canadian collection actually interest you?
And more importantly, **what kind of Canadian humour would you actually wear?**
The stereotypes? The weather? Hockey? B**r? Canadian sayings? Making fun of ourselves? Getting absolutely destroyed by Mother Nature and carrying on anyway?
I’d really love to hear what YOU would actually wear on a shirt or hoodie — not just what you think would be funny to see.
Hit me with it. Good, bad, weird or completely inappropriate. 😂
