Meet the Artist: Taylor Rushing

2025 SXSW Merch Collections
This year’s official gear was designed to reflect the spirit of SXSW 2025. Each collection brings a unique vibe—find the one that fits you best!
Armadillo Collection
Our first collection of official gear was inspired by the 2025 event and the art throughout. From horseshoes to armadillos, these bright and funky designs are centered around southwestern icons with a little bit of Austin’s "weird" charm.
Austin Punk Rock Collection
Next up is this grittier collection spurred by our love for the raw, rebellious spirit of punk rock and grungier days of Austin's music scene.
Feel Good Collection
Last but certainly not least, this whimsical breath of fresh air pays tribute to the easy breezy carefree feelings reminiscent of your best SXSW moments. It’s time to stop and smell all the flowers around you and embrace the quirky charm in these fun and cheerful designs.
