Today I tried my hand at designing a pair of phatties. For those who don't know, phat pants are a type of jean typically worn by ravers because of the colours. Here are my designs:

Of course, all the coloured areas are reflective, so when I get round to actually making a pair it should look something like this -

Not my style personally. I've got nothing against ravers or the style of clothing, but those baggy pants aren't my thing. xP

Looking at it as wearable art though, I like your design. I love the circuit board theme (at least that's how it looks to me?), and how it manages to be assymestrical whilst still looking balanced. That can be hard to do. I also like how the lines are thin. More subtle than some of the designs in the picture, but definitely still noticeable.

Nice job. :) Are you going to make them? Like, buy plain pants and paint them, or sew your design on? I'd like to see how they turn out.

Thanks :) not many people like the pants anyway :P
I tried to start off with a matrix theme I guess, I'll probably mess around for a while with a few more designs then either try making them myself or get someone to custom make them.

Hm, interesting.
Not into baggy pants myself, but what you're doing with it is really cool

The music isn't always awesome, but those pants are freaking sweet!

Your design is really good... Great part about making them is that they fit perfect too :)

Personally, I'd go with your design but on black fabric. Go with your style though, because that's just me :D

Thanks guys :)
Techno Monster what artists do you like? Right now I loooove showtek lol.
@Cindex they probably will be on black fabric because getting them custom made in denim costs like $275 EEK!
