The Geekbound Challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to make modern and stylish clothing that is nerd themed, and easily recognized from a fandom on sight, without entering the realm of cosplay/costuming. There are 2 categories: Geekbound Daily and Geekbound Evening, as well as an optional Side Quest!

If you choose to take the challenge, you will need to prepare and submit a colored sketch of your intended designs before May 31, at which time submissions will close.

Only the sketches are required for submission. More details about the Challenge can be found on our submission form (https://forms.gle/ashG1rrPTYLUBULaA)

If you make it into the Challenge showcase, your design will then need to be completed before SEPTEMBER 1ST, when videos of your final piece will be due.

LET'S DO IT TO IT!!!!!
