Deliverables: Catalog redesign & visual systems strategy
The Challenge
Pacific Sports was a leader in wholesale t-shirt manufacturing, but their existing product catalog didn’t reflect the quality and breadth of their offerings. At trade shows, distributor meetings, and customer outreach, the old catalog struggled to:
Clearly showcase product features
Communicate the depth of options
Present a cohesive and compelling brand story
This resulted in missed engagement at key moments when buyers were making decisions.
Our Approach
A Catalog Built for Brand Authority
We treated this not as a design refresh — but as a strategic brand system that supports Pacific Sports’ growth goals.
Our work focused on four core pillars:
Strategic Visual Narrative
We aligned the catalog’s storytelling with the brand’s identity — so every page reflected product quality, manufacturing expertise, and buyer value.
