Iconic Visuals of Urban Rebellion
This t-shirt design showcases the raw energy of the 1970s blaxploitation film, Dolemite, through a faithful reproduction of its original movie poster. The artwork, brimming with vibrant colors and bold typography, immediately establishes the film's genre and rebellious spirit.
A King Among the Streets

The choice of colors, from the bold primaries to the contrasting accents, reinforces the film's unapologetic, vibrant visual style.
Echoes of the Era
The design of the typography, typical of the era, amplifies the film's gritty urban backdrop. This font choice, combined with the overall design aesthetic, transports the viewer back to the 1970s, where street culture met cinematic artistry.
