    Awesome job man. I am a web-designer by profession so I love looking at websites. There are one or two things I would change that will generate more income for you -
    1. Ditch the blog on the homepage. This is not the best idea for a clothing website. I would suggest have a landing page with a slider of a selection of your clothes and some text underneath explaining what you do and about your business.
    2.Try and build an email list. This is THE BEST way for a website like yours to get returning customers. You can then send them deals via email or new t-shirt designs etc...

    Otherwise an amazing job man! Keep it up! If you like you can check out my website - dylanvarian.com- and see my blog and portfolio section for tips.

    I agree with getting rid of the blog homepage. Make it a static page and deck it out! Otherwise looks good and I like your products.

    I agree, nice little page. ALso, the scroll bars in shop arent good. I had to scroll all the way down to get to pages 2-4. Keep up the good work mate Cheers

    The layout of the page is bad. You have a clothing site but your homepage looks like an ordinary one similar to blogs. I would suggest you adding your products there such as best sellers or clothes on sale and so on.

    Definitely feature your products on the homepage instead of the blog.
    Also, consider putting together a lookbook- your clothes being worn by the people you envision wearing them. Feature those images prominently on your site.
    Where creative je ne sais quoi + business savvy collide.

    Good job !!!

    Be careful of image positions in the home page.
    Choose either left aligned or centered, but not both.

    Try to lead directly visitors to the shop page.

    Awesome site for such a young entrepreneur. I would change your home page to showcase your designs and/or introduce your brand and move the Blog its own page. Other than that, the shopping cart navigates easily and the site has a nice flow.

    Keep up the good work and Good Luck!!

    Great job Brandon. You got me beat on my first website by almost twenty years

    I agree that if your goal is to make this an ecommerce website {selling your clothes} you want your customers to start seeing your product on the first page so that they do not have to click to another page to start shopping. BeeJay Apparel

    Man, you're a threat to every web designer out there. It's really really good. What you could try is pre-setting the width and height of images so the page looks better while they're loading (without all resizing).

    Best,
