Website work and a shameless plug



I've been working hard on the website and I'm close to where I want to be. I've been listening to the Builders and the Butchers repeatedly through the process and I'm completely hooked. I have a few preview pics from the website that I hope you enjoy. Photoshop and my camera have become my best friend over these past few weeks. Take a look and tell me what you think.

Website launch

After countless hours of work and re-work because I always seem to come up with a better idea after something is already done the website should hopefully be done by late next week. The shop will have a few items but I'll be saving most for a full-on launch in hopefully a few months. Feel free to email me your size and look through the photos of sneak peeks when they're up. Thanks again for all the support.

Tshirts and a Cuff







These t shirts are just a couple of what I've made, but it gives an idea of the place I'm headed. I want to create something that looks like it's been lived in and has a story behind it i.e I wore this when I was in Sturgis and got into a street brawl with a biker gang. You get the idea. Thanks again for the support. -Simon Pure

Cranking out the goods

I've settled on the logo of an eagle with two pistols. Thanks everyone for voting and for the support. Now to the task of t shirt designs and making the necklaces. Bandanas are also a possibility so we will see what happens. Working on t shirt designs today and trying to figure out how to "borrow" a silk screener from someone.

Logo possibilities




In my enlightened state of mind I have created my two logo possibilities. They are up for voting at this point and your support is greatly appreciated. I went for a vintage look because of the subject matter plus vintage things overall are just better.

Launching the boat


I have started the undertaking of making my own clothing company, Simon Pure. It will be an adventure to say the least but I feel inspired by the fact that I have a forest of ideas coupled with my desire to make something all my friends want to wear.


I recently been drawn to the Gold Mining eraof the 1840's and figured I'd use that as a jumping off point for my tshirts and necklaces. Simple items in the grand scheme of things, so with that in mind let's get started. I have setup my facebook page and etsy site both of which are named Simon Pure. Now it's just to the task of actually making my creations and posting them for all to see. Hope you enjoy. Cheers.
