Apparel Design Intern

Job Description

About the Role
We’re looking for an Apparel Design Intern who lives at the intersection of sport, identity, and design. At Audacity Sports, apparel isn’t merch — it’s culture. It’s what athletes wear when they want to feel like they belong to something bigger than themselves. You’ll work directly with the Founder and collaborate across the team to build a visual identity that athletes actually want to wear, leveraging our print-on-demand model for elite design.

What You’ll Do
• Design athletic logos, wordmarks, and brand marks that carry weight on apparel
• Develop patterns, graphics, and repeating motifs for tees, hoodies, hats, and more
• Create collections and seasonal concepts aligned with our mission and athlete identity
• Prepare print-ready files optimized for print-on-demand production
• Collaborate with the marketing team to design social media assets, campaign graphics, and branded content
• Build mood boards and design concepts for Founder review
• Maintain brand consistency across apparel and digital assets
• Research trends in sport, streetwear, and athletic branding to inform direction

You’re a Good Fit If You
• Strong graphic design experience with an athletic aesthetic — a portfolio is required
• Proven ability to design logos, patterns, and graphics for apparel (not just digital)
• Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and/or Photoshop
• Familiarity with print-on-demand file specs and requirements
• A genuine passion for sport culture, athlete identity, and apparel
• Strong visual instincts — you know what looks good on a body, not just a screen
• Self-directed — you bring concepts, not just executions

Bonus Qualifications
• Experience designing for sportswear, streetwear, or athletic brands

Role Highlights & Compensation
• Your designs go into production and into the hands of real athletes
• Includes a revenue share tied directly to apparel sales
• Available for college credit and/or revenue share of apparel line
• Structured for a designer who wants skin in the game
• Perfect for Spring/Summer Internship Requirements
