This design represents how more and more of us are leading into and becoming stuck in the Rat Race – a day to day endless, self-defeating or pointless pursuit, like rats running round in a maze and bumping into one another but ultimately achieving nothing. Some of us feel this way every day when we go to work for a career in which we despise. We become so lost in worldly issues and live our lives by routine, and thus lose a sense of who we are and what we really want. We will live each torturous day in the same way, each filled by small meaningless routines, and never pursue our dreams as it gets pushed to the side and becomes less important than our need to survive. We become like human rats stuck in a maze, never truly achieving anything. |

I think the maze design with the rats inside would have made a cool shirt. I somehow guess that the line of rats was an afterthought, and for me, it ruins it. However, a larger, centrally placed rat maze is quite tasty. If you ask me the line of rats does nothing to add to the concept, it just detracts quite a lot, makes it look more like ants, or like the whole thing’s a sucker or something, unless that’s what you were going for.

hey ya i like the simplicity, and the idea, i would just change the placement of your design. Either place it in such away that the rats are runnnign from the collar going down the gut or the opposite from the bottom of the torso up to the heart (all this when a person is actually wearing the tee gives it more depth)

The idea is solid, but the execution just a bit to simplistic for me.
