In partnership with Nintendo, UNIQLO has launched its UNIQLO T-shirt (UT) Grand Prix 2017 design contest. Anyone around the world can enter until August 31.

Given the partnership, it makes sense that the theme of this year’s contest is Nintendo. Participants are encouraged “to express the joy and excitement of Nintendo’s games through clothing while also fostering creative talent.” Fans can make designs based on the company’s various franchises including Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, and Donkey Kong.

UNIQLO UT Grand Prix winners will be notified in Spring 2017. They’ll receive up to $10,000 in prize money, and an invitation to attend a special awards ceremony in Japan. Shigeru Miyamoto will be one of the competition’s judges and will also be present at the awards ceremony. Major prize winners will also receive a NX signed by Miyamoto.

These are the full lineup of prizes:

– Grand Prize: $10,000, an invitation to awards ceremony attended by Shigeru Miyamoto, Nintendo NX signed by him, and a special commemorative award

– Second Prize: $3,000, an invitation to awards ceremony attended by Shigeru Miyamoto and Nintendo NX signed by him

– Finalist Prizes: $500 each

Winning designs will be featured in UNIQLO’s Spring/Summer 2017 UT Collection, which will be available in men’s, women’s, and kids’ lines from UNIQLO stores in 18 countries and at the UNIQLO.com online store.
