Product Design
Buffalo Airways Shot Glass Design- April 2012
When I first arrived at Buffalo, I was challenged with the task of designing something that would sell at least 100 Units.
Originally I thought of T-shirt designs I could introduce but in the end I decided to introduce a new product that would add to the line of merchandise.
The design is simple on the front with just the logo.
The back indicates the ladder that all aspiring pilots at Buffalo must climb and the steps they must take to reach the left side Captain chair.
This product has sold over 300 units at this time and that number is still growing.

Red Fleece Hoodie with Angel Wing Design- October 2012
This style hoodie was brought in to add a splash of colour in the predominately black and green colouring of the merchandise line. It was intended as a women's style in order to fill the gap for the female audience that enjoys the show and the merchandise.
Inspired by popular female wing tattoos over the shoulder, We kept the image simple and confined to the back, in a distressed print.

Buffalo Custom Yoga Pants- Cotton/Spandex Blend- October 2012
This was the first idea I pitched when arriving at Buffalo.
The design was for a lulu lemon feel pant that would be comfortable and fashionable.
When I arrived I had pitched this idea a few times and was told to draw it out rough to have a starting point. My drawing skills are very poor, however my sewing skills are a little more than just O.K. so the first pair of Buffalo Yoga pants went to Barbie. The sample went over really well and began a demand for product we weren't sure we could satisfy, as the only product we could find were pre-made and completely black.
The pants were made to my specification by Universal Sourcing, however after many samples and problems in fabric and pricing we weren't sure it would actually happen. It was turning into a headache and we were about to give up, that's when everything just fell into place.
Today the pants are 2 weeks from delivery and in the 6 months since we began working on them, the buzz surrounding the design is huge and we expect to be sold out within a few weeks of arrival.

Ladies Light Blue/Navy Ringer Tee with Stamp Design- October 2012
This tee was designed as another addition to our BuffaloGirl Line. The fitted tee gives it a cleaner look for women than the unisex line.
The design was made to look like an old passport stamp, the highly distressed look makes it look like it was at one point a well used stamp. We also had them print it so some places in the print are darker or lighter like a stamp would be.
The placement of the image is asymmetrical and adds another level to the dynamic look we tried to give this design

Women's Fitted Organic Cotton Chocolate Tee- October 2012
The design was another addition to our Buffalo Girl Line.
In keeping with the theme, the design is pretty and elegant, and the colour choice of cream on chocolate is understated.
This design is screen printed with a discharge ink, meaning the ink will be absorbed into the fabric after the first wash, to avoid the rough feeling normally associated with screen printing.

Buffalo Airside Cotton Cap
This new hat design will be seen in December 2012. The charcoal colour helps it to stand apart from the current assortment of hats we have.
This hat design was kept simple, and clean. The under-brim is a lighter grey colour to add contrast to the design.
Simple lettering in the front and an understated logo on the side, keep it easy on the eyes and portray the brand clearly.
