CAUTIOUSLY OPTIMISTIC!
Merch for people who know this could go horribly wrong — and do it anyway.
Blue collar. Dad life. Bad decisions. Good intentions.
Real Talk. Real Life. Real Merch.
I'm Race. I run a real alternator repair shop by day. I'm also a dad navigating life with anxiety, PTSD, and ADHD Inattentive.
This isn't a side hustle. It's not a brand built by a marketing team. It's just me—trying to stay cautiously optimistic while juggling the chaos of real life, real struggles, and real responsibilities.
Every design you see here comes from that place. The messy, honest, sometimes overwhelming reality of being a parent, a business owner, and a human trying to keep it together.
If you've ever felt like you're barely holding on but still showing up anyway—this merch is for you.
