I was just thinking how this would look on a colored t-shirt (blue, red, black, whatever) - I'm guessing the shell still needs to be white/cream, or would it work if the graphics were just inverted? Still a kick-ass logo!

That was my only concern with it.....not sure the best way around it - could maybe put 'SSDB: home of the adidas superstar' under it. Or does it really matter?

Damn you and your secret jeweller society.
Maybe four separate laces for each letter in a more graf inspired yet easy to read style?

I had thought that too, I have changed it a little bit, defined the D a little with more of an upright stroke

MrShoeShotta makes a good point here. As far as logo text goes, I'm of the train of thought that it doesn't have to be 100% readable. The reasoning behind this is that if someone sees you wearing this tee - you're there to ask. If they see the logo on the net then they might investigate further. Also, even if someone who had no idea read 'SSDB' they probably wouldn't be any wiser anyway...

IMO that would start becoming too fussy and busy, it's not how I work, my aesthetic is quite clean and simple. I think four different laces would also lose some impact - at the moment the one lace is just about the right proportions for a phat lace, but once you take it back to four shorter laces, the lettering would have to be less bold, or the laces would look well and truely, unproportionally tubby.
