The Playmaker Vest

The Playmaker Vest is designed for those who move with intention—both on and off the court. Constructed from 100% canvas, this vest offers a perfect blend of streetwear and refined style. Inside, is a plaid fleece lining in warm tones of brown, black, white, and beige, providing comfort and a subtle touch that elevates its everyday versatility.

Every detail of the Playmaker Vest is thoughtfully crafted with function and inspiration in mind. The white buttons provide a clean contrast against the khaki canvas, while the pockets tell a story of readiness and strategy. Just like a basketball playmaker carries a playbook full of options, this vest features two spacious side pockets—one of which includes a dedicated pencil pocket —and two structured 3D flap pockets with closures, perfect for safely storing your essentials.

These pockets symbolize having multiple plays ready to pull out at a moment’s notice, reflecting a mindset of adaptability, preparation, and confidence. Whether you’re wanting a casual or sporty look, the Playmaker Vest keeps you organized and ready for whatever the game throws your way.

Designing this piece challenged me in many ways. I struggled with aligning each pocket for a precise and clean look, as well as matching the plaid evenly on both sides. Even though I faced these challenges, I was able to draw on my previous knowledge of sewing and garment construction to complete the piece. I relied on precision, problem-solving, and a thoughtful approach to bring my vision to life. This process taught me the value of patience, attention to detail, and embracing trial and error as part of creative growth. Ultimately, I learned that imperfections and setbacks are opportunities to refine my work and create something truly purposeful and meaningful.

Versatile, stylish, and packed with purpose, the Playmaker Vest is the perfect companion for those who live boldly and plan ahead—because every great play starts with the right gear.
