How it works
We’re opening the brand to creative participation.
If you have a phrase that feels intrusive, honest, uncomfortable, funny, or painfully real — we want to hear it.
You submit an idea. If it’s selected, we turn it into a real product. And you don’t just get credit — you get paid.
• Your phrase becomes part of a Side Effects piece
• The product is produced and sold normally
• You receive a percentage of the profit from that specific item
• You’re encouraged to share it — because it’s yours too
It’s not a company partnership. It’s not a contract-heavy system. It’s creative collaboration with reward.
Why we’re doing this
Because community builds culture. Because people support what they help create. Because thoughts deserve to be written — out loud.
This is how Side Effects grows — with more voices. More perspectives. More meaning.
Want to collaborate?
Send us your idea. Tell us your thought. Let it live beyond your head.
Side Effects.
Your thoughts. Written. Out loud
Collaboration Terms & Conditions
By submitting an idea to Side Effects, you acknowledge and agree to the following terms.
All selected ideas become part of the Side Effects creative universe. Side Effects retains full and exclusive rights over the creative process, production, distribution, and use of the approved idea, with lifetime usage rights once the idea is selected.
If an idea is approved, the contributor will receive 15% of the net profits generated by the specific product derived from that idea for a period of 12 months, starting from the product’s official release date. After this period, all profits and rights related to the creation revert fully and exclusively to Side Effects.
Profit shares are calculated per product and paid monthly, on the 15th day of the following month, provided the contributor has completed and signed all required documentation.
Contributors are required to sign a formal collaboration agreement, including a non-competition clause valid during the 12-month profit-sharing period. During this time, contributors may participate in creative processes for other brands, but their name may not be publicly associated with competing fashion or apparel brands. Promoting or collaborating with non-competing brands is permitted.
As part of the collaboration, contributors are required to acquire at least one unit of the final product, paying only the production cost. This ensures alignment with the physical result of the creation and the brand’s production standards.
Side Effects reserves the right to adapt, edit, reinterpret, or refine submitted ideas to fit the brand’s aesthetic, tone, and production requirements, without the obligation to seek further approval once the idea has been accepted.
Submission of an idea does not guarantee selection. Side Effects is under no obligation to provide feedback for unselected submissions.
Additional Terms
The contributor confirms that all submitted ideas are original, created by the contributor, and do not infringe upon any third-party intellectual property, copyrights, or rights.
Side Effects is not responsible for how a released product or idea is perceived, interpreted, or received once made public.
Side Effects reserves the right to discontinue, pause, or permanently remove any product from production or sale at its sole discretion, without obligation to maintain availability.
These terms and any related agreements are governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Belgium.
