Skateboard Shorts
These shorts were made in response to the lack of women’s skatewear. Inspired by dickies skate shorts, I redesigned these shorts to better fit a woman’s figure, and suit performance and fit needs of female skaters.
Ripstop nylon

polyester power mesh
Concept Sketches
i began by sketching iterativley, imagining the spaces this product would exist in. How could a tote bag be transformed to impact those who live out active lifestyles?
Production
next i created a card model to better understand the scale that was needed, and to also understand the flap to hold a skateboard, wet bathing suits, etc.
