The Artist Collaboration Process at Arte Do Pé Socks
Share
At Arte Do Pé Socks, we are passionate about working with independent artists to transform their creative visions into wearable art. Collaborating with us offers a seamless process for artists while also providing financial rewards and promotional opportunities. Here's an inside look at how artists can partner with Arte Do Pé to design socks and turn their art into a unique fashion statement.
1. Joining the Arte Do Pé Family
We invite artists to design socks for our special artist line, where their work is celebrated and shared with a broader audience. As a collaborator, you receive a commission for every pair of socks sold. Additionally, we feature a profile of you and your artwork on our website and marketing platforms, driving traffic to your own online presence—whether that's a personal website or social media accounts such as Instagram.
2. Creative Support and Tools for Success
We understand that translating art into a sock design comes with its own challenges. That's why we provide a comprehensive design packet to guide artists through the process. The packet includes:
- A blank sock template in multiple formats (image file, Photoshop, and Illustrator).
- An example design to offer inspiration and show guidelines in action.
- Detailed instructions and best practices for sock design.
3. Design Guidelines for Artists
To ensure designs fit the manufacturing process while maintaining the integrity of your vision, there are a few technical aspects to consider:
- Each horizontal line of the sock can feature a maximum of six colors, though up to ten colors may be used throughout the entire design.
- Small details should be avoided, as the machinery may not accurately capture them.
- The toe, heel, and cuff sections of the sock require solid colors, though these sections don't need to match each other.
We also offer the option to include Pantone, RGB, or CMYK color codes, which serve as guides for the factory to match thread colors as closely as possible. When matching colors we will return with alternative options if a color isn't possible/available.
4. Collaboration Process
Our collaboration process is designed to be straightforward and artist-friendly:
- Use our provided template to create your design.
- Submit your sock design or original artwork to Arte Do Pé for review.
- We may request revisions to ensure your design translates well to sock form.
- Once both sides approve, we move forward with production.
- As soon as your socks are manufactured, you’ll receive a sample pair.
- Your designs go live on our site, and you start earning income from every sale!
