About Audra Smigel Designs

Built from the inspiration of classic pin-ups, trade culture, and the kind of humor you only hear on the jobsite. Every design starts the same way: hand-drawn, unapologetic, and inspired by the people who build the world from the ground up.

​

All illustrations are created by me — no stock art, no AI, no shortcuts. Each piece is drawn with intention, pulling from vintage pin-up aesthetics and blending them with modern ironworker and trades culture.

​

These shirts are made for the trades and anyone who appreciates dirty humor, hard work, and well-earned pride. Whether you’re up on the beam, in the shop, or off the clock, the goal is simple: wear something that feels authentic and hits a little harder than the usual trade merch.

This is just the beginning.

 

New designs, new characters, and more pin-ups are always in the works — each one drawn by hand and released with the same focus on quality, personality, and grit.

Built by hand. Inspired by the trades.
Not for the easily offended.
