Selecting the Right T-Shirt for Your Needs
When we get orders, our customers are very clear on what they want on the t-shirt, but aren’t so clear on what kind of t-shirt they actually want. You may have a fantastic design and a really clever message, but if you put it on the wrong tee shirt, it won’t bring you the finished product that you’re looking for. A few things to take into consideration is the:
- Type of product: Do you want a standard short sleeve shirt? What if you live in an extremely cold place and only wear short sleeves for one or two months out of the year? You might then consider getting a long-sleeve t-shirt instead. Another great option would be to choose one of our hoodies or pull-overs, and get them screen printed with your logo and text.
- Style: We have several different styles just in t-shirts alone. Do you want a more fitted shirt or would you prefer something looser? Are you looking for 100% cotton or a 50/50 blend? Do you want your tee to have a pocket?
- Color: This is one of the most important considerations. For example if your design is dark you probably don’t want to put it on a dark t-shirt. However, it’s also important to consider how well the color of the shirt will go with the color of the design, even if you do make sure to find a good contrast. Finally, are you getting a color that’s appropriate for the purpose? If you’ll be working outdoors all day in the sun, you’ll probably want to opt out of that black shirt in favor of a lighter color. You might also get more everyday use out of your ‘beach colored’ tee if it’s still a color you’d be comfortable wearing on a daily basis.
These are just a few of the considerations to take into mind choosing the correct t-shirt for your design and needs. We hope this entry got you thinking more carefully about what type of shirt you want.
