Field testedMIXED1 production hoodie · 1 session

One hoodie. One hot day.

In one August 2 session, Cody observed airflow and moisture handling, with snug sleeves in size XL. This is not a controlled concealment or performance claim.

The Western shirt was not tested. UV protection and repeatable concealment performance were not independently verified.

Self-directed design case study · KTT's own collection

One pattern. Two ways to wear it.

TV-D1 connects a Tobacco Valley palette to everyday apparel. This is KTT's own design work, not a client commission. The record brings together the existing artwork, product layouts, and one published hoodie wear session.

01 / The briefKeep the place recognizable.

Dry grass, pale rock, conifer shade, and dark timber provide the visual starting points. The artwork combines smaller marks with larger shapes, giving the same palette a recognizable identity on a shirt, layer, or accessory. The terrain images are references, not concealment comparisons.

02 / Artwork & repeatSeparate the source from the layout.

The original artwork is preserved; product layouts are prepared from copies. A separate digital repeat study examines the joins when the artwork is tiled across a larger surface. That study remains production preparation: a digital repeat preview does not establish how a finished fabric prints, stretches, or washes.

03 / ApplicationFull pattern or a focused accent.

The camo button shirt covers the garment in TV-D1. The Western uses pointed, printed camo yokes against black. These are two visible layout choices using the same pattern. The Western details are printed graphics, not sewn western-yoke construction.

04 / Scale & placementJudge it on the actual surface.

A large shirt panel and a small accessory show different portions of the artwork. Layout previews help judge coverage and placement; they cannot settle color, drape, seam behavior, or worn fit. A physical sample is needed for those decisions.

05 / What existsArtwork, catalog layouts, one wear record.

The collection above shows current catalog mockups. The published August 2 hoodie session records airflow, moisture handling, snug XL sleeves, and a MIXED result. It did not test the Western shirt, establish repeat-print quality, or measure concealment.

06 / The next decisionLet the sample inform the revision.

A Western wear and print record still needs physical observations. The next useful evidence is front and back views, close-ups of the print, wearer and size context, and a care-cycle check. No Western sample verdict or resulting revision is claimed here.

For a custom project, we agree the intended surface, artwork deliverables, revisions, and usage rights in the brief. TV-D1 remains KTT's own pattern; its example does not grant a license or imply a completed customer project.

Pattern scale

High-contrast micro-patterns sit inside larger macro shapes so the pattern can be tested against outlines, camera framing, and human visual reads without promising magic invisibility.

Palette sampling

The working palette draws from dry grass, pale rock, conifer shade, wet timber, and hardware-dark shadow. It is a visual reference set, not a measured spectral-performance claim.
