Two companies have joined forces to launch a new line of Christian T-shirts aimed at teenagers. Creation By Design has linked with K.O.T. Shirts to promote the message, “Knockin' Out Temptation.”

Founded in 2006 by Steven Kaye, Creation By Design launched a line of Bible trading cards, “My Bible Cards,” featuring computer-generated images. Last year the company introduced the “Xander Nash” children’s chapter-book series and a line of activity books, posters, artwork and postcards. K.O.T. Shirts was founded by teenager Nathan Cabrera, whose mother was killed in a gang attack on the family home.

A chance meeting at last year’s International Christian Retail Show brought the two companies together. “It was just a natural marriage,” said Kaye. “People of all ages love to wear T-shirts. Christians love to use their shirts to proclaim their faith. But it takes great-looking images to make a great-looking T-shirt. That’s what we brought to the party. We are proud of our biblical images and want to get them out to people as much as we can. We appreciate the opportunity to work with K.O.T. Shirts to make this happen.”

The new line launches in the spring with nine designs, in all sizes, priced between $19.99 and $24.99, and available through Creation By Design, Genesis Marketing Group or STL Distribution North America.
