"Be Safe"
Direct Route of Transmission to Cap | Boxers
Whether we're talking about disease awareness, infection prevention, personal and workplace hygiene or simply holding good thoughts for those you love and wish well, here's a universal message that needs no explanation: "Be Safe ." IA is excited to be working closely with the California Family Health Council (CFHC) to help spread the message - in their case for teen awareness - via the new "Be Safe" Caps. Here's a cool chapeau with a simple message - appropriate for little ones, timely for teens, and right on-point for the rest of us climbing the chronological calendar (getting older!). Know anyone serving in the armed forces? How about a perfect, evergreen "off-duty" wardrobe complement for any guy or girl serving on our behalf?
A note about design: the basic pattern for "Be Safe" was created by an inner city youth, and was originally drawn in a graffiti style totally unintelligible to anyone over age 18!! See if you can make it out, below! We modified it just enough to be recognizable to voting age mortals, hoping at the same time to keep its original, edgy creativity intact.
