The Task
Allure Sports sought to capitalize on the popularity of their sponsored fighter, Jordan Vucenic, by launching a limited edition fightwear kit. The task involved creating a unique product offering that resonated with both Vucenic's fanbase and the broader combat sports community.
This kit, consisting of a custom-designed t-shirt and shorts, needed to reflect Vucenic's personal style and brand while aligning with Allure Sports' high standards for quality and design. The challenge was to develop a compelling product that would generate excitement and drive sales within a limited timeframe, leveraging Vucenic's profile and Allure Sports' established market presence.
The Solution
To create a distinctive limited edition fightwear kit for sponsored fighter Jordan Vucenic, Allure Sports focused on visually representing his unique brand. Illustrations, inspired by his signature tattoos and his nickname, 'The Epidemic,' were hand-drawn to capture his personal style. These drawings were then digitally manipulated and merged in Photoshop, resulting in a unified and powerful design for the t-shirt and shorts. The final fightwear incorporated the intricate detailing of his tattoos with the dynamic imagery associated with 'The Epidemic,' effectively translating Vucenic's persona into a marketable and visually impactful product.

"The thematic foundation for Jordan Vucenic's limited-edition fightwear kit was rooted in the intricate designs of his most prominent tattoos. These tattoos, deeply personal and visually striking, were meticulously hand-drawn, capturing their unique details and symbolism. Each illustration was crafted to serve as a core element of the kit's design, ensuring that the fightwear authentically reflected Vucenic's identity.
By focusing on his tattoos, the artwork aimed to create a direct connection with his fans, offering them a piece of merchandise that resonated with his personal story and fighting spirit.
Graphic Design
Once the hand-drawn illustrations of Jordan Vucenic's tattoos were completed, the process transitioned to Photoshop for digital refinement and integration. In Photoshop, these illustrations were meticulously manipulated to work seamlessly with additional graphic elements and typography.
This stage involved adjusting sizes, colors, and compositions to ensure the designs were visually impactful and aligned with Allure Sports' brand aesthetic. Furthermore, the artwork was precisely scaled and formatted to fit the specific dimensions of the t-shirt and shorts, guaranteeing a professional and polished final product. The digital environment allowed for precise control over the design, enabling the creation of a cohesive and visually dynamic fightwear kit that effectively translated Vucenic's personal brand onto the garments.
Mock Ups
The final phase involved meticulous attention to detail. The completed designs were meticulously placed onto realistic t-shirt and shorts mockups within Photoshop. This crucial step allowed the team to visualize how the artwork would translate onto the actual garments, enabling fine-tuning of colors, placement, and overall aesthetic.
By reviewing the designs on mockups, the team could identify and address any potential issues before proceeding to the final production stage, ensuring a flawless and visually impactful end product.
