Deliverables: Full-color, production-ready vector designs (AI or EPS preferred) Front and back artwork mockups for at least 2 designs Bonus points for showcasing designs on apparel mockups (tees and hoodies) Timeline: Initial design submissions due within 5–7 days We’ll be selecting and finalizing designs by mid-next week Winning designs will be sent to the team for approval, then put into production for the Indy 500 (May 26) What You’re Competing For: Cash prize + portfolio exposure Opportunity for ongoing design collaboration with our brand and licensed racing teams Your design worn by fans and potentially drivers at the biggest race of the year Style Keywords: Motorsport, Streetwear, Japanese Influence, Driver Culture, IndyCar, Bold Graphics, Limited Edition, Race Day, Drop Culture, High-Energy We're excited to see what you come up with.
