Alright, it’s track jacket time… Don’t worry Andy, I’m not whaling my way into your territory or anything. I just thought this design was too damn clever to pass up. Feel free to bite it if you want… 
Now, I wouldn’t think to call myself a design geek so much as I would a design admirer. Design geeks, for the most part, can actually crank out pretty looking things with a little bit of effort. Sure they might be whatever trend is the big thing at the time, but at least the things they make manage to look nice. And while I’m passingly familiar with grid layouts and typography, I don’t think I could assemble the things that I know into something which people would want to look at or admire.
Still, I get what Veer’s going for here. What’s more, thinking about simply zipping up as a visual aide during the explanation of kerning makes me giggle a bit. I’ll laugh at anything tho, so take that however you want to.

Not that I haven’t seen this before, but nice to have regular updates again. Shame Veer charge so much for foreign shipping, getting this sent to the UK almost double the price!
I love it. Apparently it used to be free with a certain type of image order. Wish I knew that BEFORE!
It’s nice to be making regular updates again. And yeah, I’ve let it slide before. I’m really going to try to not to this time around tho.
Well, it’s really just nice to have you back
The hoodie is clever… but I like the text on the main picture of the CMYK jackets on their merch page even more.
I bought this zip-up a while back, probably about 5 months ago, and I love it. Not just for its design geek humor or the fact that when people ask “what’s KERN?” I can then actually show them using the zipper. But also the fact that this thing is very comfortable. It may not be the warmest thing out there, but it’s high quality and I wear mine all the time.
Highly recommended, from a guy who’s thinking about ordering a second one in case my first one gets worn out at some point.
I feel as though I should shake my fist for some reason…
