Pleased to announce I'm teaming up with a crazy talented designer from Abercrombie to further finalize the rest of the line for a fall release, definitely some casual stuff coming with good vibes. Plus, she's bringing on a girls perspective, so I'll be making sure things are unisex, comfortable, and look good. Also, will have pocket tees available on the store soonish.

Peace,
SHUTA

Hey guys, I've been on a bit of a hiatus this summer, and hit a few bumps in the road, but since then I've been on the up & up and just wanted to fill you guys in.

I'm shooting for a late summer early fall release, probably just when most people will be getting back to school. I'm looking at crewnecks, long sleeve tees, tees, and possibly some denims. Just a whole variety of things perfect for the fall weather / late summertime weather. As I had said before, I'm in the process of redesigning things, which I'll be continuing to do until I am happy with the final product and you guys will like them. From there I plan to further the branding a bit more, and things like that. The clothes will be legitimate with hangtags and everything, all the way down to the nines.

Keep an eye out. I'll check back within a few weeks and let everyone know what's happening.

Quick Spring/Summer lookbook. Shot by Greg Mahnken. We did this whole shoot in about 20 minutes, and I'm continuing to edit a few more. New designs out this week, before I send them off to the screenprinters!

So I've been a bit busy finishing some stuff for an independent study. Turned some of what I did into a commercial for the brand.

yep, it's here for the most part (more designs this summer)

Thanks to Greg Mahnken for help with the photography!

I'm still in the process of building it more, but here's what I've got going as far as a website and some stuff from the shoot the other day! Visit http://shutampls.com, and click around!

Right now it's working on Chrome and Safari so if you're using those you can see how far it's progressed right now. I'm working on making it work for IE and FF...

I'm going to need a few people to model some of the pieces and such as well as makeup artists for the lookbook. I have a beast photographer, 2-3 cameras, and lighting. For now I've got limited quantities and stuff, but if everything goes according to plan, I'll have a full run this summer, based on what worked well/what didn't. I'll probably have some leftovers and stuff, but regardless, I'll hook you up if you help me out. Let me know if interested. Shoot me a message.

Well, been away for a little while. Banners, a bunch of clothing and other stuff is on its way, including some fabric so I can sew together this pocket tee with this pattern. This might go on a few long sleeve shirts as well as a pocket. It's sewn on the hems and arms of the shirt. Let me know how you feel about this style.

So the other night I couldn't sleep. I designed a fully functional font.

I basically took my logo, pushed the design a bit further, and created a font set of 98 glyphs (characters), with pretty much every and any symbol you could imagine. It is all caps, and super skinny. I'm working out a few of the line height kinks, but for now it turned out great and works awesome on headers in Microsoft Word for example!

Without further ado, I'd like to introduce to you Shuta Handwritten. In this image, there are only a few glyphs shown, but download it. Install it as a font on your computer, and give it a go. Let me know what you think.
