Question

I want to start a print on demand store that sells tshirts and hoodies, etc. All the marketing will be done by them, the only thing I'll need to do is design the items and upload my designed item on their store.

I want to know if it's permissible for me to design the hoodies, etc without marketing the product (which uses images of people wearing the item).

Answer

It is permissible provided it does not contain anything impermissible, animate objects or statements that are misleading and confusing.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
