Journey from Illustration to Technical Layout: Urban Techwear (Menswear)
Hey network! Sharing my design breakdown, focusing on the high-utility menswear techwear market.
For this capsule set, I designed a functional, water-resistant hooded windbreaker jacket and matching relaxed-fit technical joggers. My design process focused heavily on:
👉 Mapping out complex, geometric construction panels.
👉 Integrating waterproof utility zipper tracks and adjustable hood toggle mechanics.
Check out the attached layout to see how I translate an organic, stylized digital fashion illustration into a factory-ready vector flat sketch with precise technical details.
I am actively open to new remote freelance contracts! If you are an independent clothing brand, streetwear startup, or manufacturer looking for technical apparel flats, let’s collaborate.

A strong visual identity creates recognition, builds credibility, and communicates value before you ever say a thing.
I don’t design logos just to make brands look good.
I build visual identities that position businesses, create distinction, and make brands impossible to confuse with everyone else.
A few identities I’ve worked on this year.

The grey bull with the flame horns (B) has way more attitude than the golden one, feels like it'd work on a streetwear drop rather than a finance client. Which way are you leaning yourself, and is this for a specific client or just portfolio exploration?
