Classic Climbing Topos Artworks

"Freedom oe the hills"?? Some of this looks like AI generated art?

It's cause we are old as shit ;) The dying breed of the Trad Dad was actually brought up in the most recent Taps/Last Rites episode on the Enormocast. As a millennial trad dad, I did purchase the requisite Freedom of The Hills when I got into climbing back in 2010.

This represents my situation as well.

I think the guy above you is commenting on the fact that the image says "Freedom oE the Hills" not "of"

Thanks for the feedback yall - I was promised it wasnt AI and blindly trusted them. I didn't check it thoroughly enough - its quite obvious now at a closer look - mostly in the detailed lines. #3 and #4 are now removed and will be done by someone else. My apologies.

UPDATES

I am behind schedule cause I was busy tearing my ACL and meniscus... which means now there will be alot of sitting and potentially making new stuff for me.  

1. Castleton is done! Changed style since we are in the desert now.
Also, this time there are posters in different sizes and a postcard. Let me know what you think!
2. I'll be drawing the feedback winners this weekend so keep checking by Sunday I should have them posted here.

CASTLETON HERE

You know you have at minimum 1 customer! 

Awesome designs! Since these shirts are "relaxed" fit could you speak to the sizing as it compares to regular Patagonia tshirt? I feel like I am usually a Medium, but Patagonia Ts are sized a bit loose, so I usually get a Small, seems like that may be the case with these. Thanks! 

Hi Martin, any updates on when some of the other Shirts will be completed. I'm hoping to get my girlfriend one of the Outerspace ones and would like to get an Acid Baby one for myself.

Hey Michael!
Thanks man!
The "relaxed" fit does not mean that it is a modern, baggy fit. It's just the manufacturers "normal" fit that they call "relaxed". I chose those shirts for their true fit - all the samples I have are very true to fit and so far I have had 0 complaints about the fit being too loose. I don't have any shirts from patagonia so I can't tell you but they do compare well with the black diamond shirts that have a normal fit. The overall shirt quality is very good with 100% US Cotton, and they are made sustainibly which also means that they last longer and the print quality is high.

I hope this helps!

Not just my opinion:

Did these ever go on sale? Looks like the website provided in initial post is no longer active. 

I just found this but all I get are pretty concerning access errors

What happened here?

I missed my opportunity to purchase one. Hopefully he reposts his online store!

These are sweet! I would only get one tho if the graphic was on the front. I like to see it, I don’t care what’s on my back. 

I bought one but the quality wasn't great. The artwork started to peel off after a few washes. Bummer because I liked the designs

hmmm. The quality of the couple that I purchased were great... I just wore the shit out of them so I want new ones.
