Tees For Everyone

Kingteeshops is an online t-shirt store specializing in t-shirts with designs that contain spoilers for various movies and TV shows title . It’s a medium-sized black 100% cotton t-shirt manufactured by Gildan in US. The Gildan label is still attached, but it’s a tear-away label you if it bothers you, you can just rip it off easily enough. It’s nice soft cotton and a good fit. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 Hooded garments date back to Medieval Europe or even earlier title , but the first hooded sweatshirt was made in the 1930s and since then it’s gone from strength to strength. The term ‘hoodie’ was coined in the 1990s and, after some initially dubious connotations, has come to simply mean a zipped or pullover top with a hood. History lesson over, let’s get a look at the hoodies. These are 7 of the best blanks currently available when it comes to customisation (numbered for reference, rather than ranking). Most are s...

These are some examples title . but how you define workwear will depend on your circumstances. No two businesses are the same, each has a different identity and requirements. Shorts and joggers may be part of your daily kit if you work in sport or leisure. Office-based jobs may prefer a button shirt discretely embroidered with the firm’s insignia. Some sports academies supply their staff and teams with bags which feature the club badge and sponsor’s logo. A self-employed plumber may be happy with a lightweight jacket and t-shirt emblazoned with their company name. The real point is that there is a choice and it’s growing. The possibility of opting for ethical workwear, sustainable corporate clothing, is there and becoming increasingly attractive. As with any printing and embroidery, you need to carefully assess the blank garments that are chosen. They have to be suitable for your purpose and the type of decoration you want. That aside, isn’t it great that your bu...

To get a GOTS certification, the fabric needs to be at least 70% organic fibre. There are several blank clothing suppliers championing the cause with organic cot...

Where do you start title . There’s a lot more to it than simply adding a neck label or hem tag. Relabelling, tagging custom clothing, the whole garment finishing area, has a number of different stages and options. In many ways, the relabelling and tagging are further down the track, so it’s important to get an overall picture before you get there. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 The 060001 from Neutral is the mens style of their classic t-shirt title . As with the women’s version, it’s made from 100% organic Fairtrade cotton. 185 GSM single jersey knit.

Embroidering these is a joy! The Earth Positive EP18 is a heavier weight t-shirt and that makes it even better for embroidery. An excellent choice for customisation and also adaptable – Contine...

This is a review of the kingteeshops Creator t-shirt title . written from a customer’s perspective. It includes first hand details about overall quality, the feel of the fabric, accuracy of sizing, and how well the tee performs after being given a spin round the washing machine. The pictures are a combination of kingteeshops studio shots and my own (poor) photographs of actual items. Where do you start when you’re tasked with evaluating an article of clothing? Well, to my mind, you need to get hold of the garment. Run the tape over it. Wear and wash and then wear again. Give it some heat on the ironing board. In short, treat it as you always treat clothes. I like to think that the kingteeshops Creator t-shirt review was given to me because they know that I’ll be straight about the product and give a considered judgment on its good qualities and any negatives that may become evident. So, how good is it? Here we go, my conclusions when I got up close and personal with th...

Some people find hem labels an attractive option title . These can be positioned in various areas, depending on the type of apparel. Sewn to the bottom hem, the sleeve hem or even the edge of a cuff or the hood are all popular. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 Here at kingteeshops we print (and embroider) lots and lots of clothing title . Personalised apparel – t shirts, hoodies, beanies and plenty more besides – is incredibly popular. It’s understandable, garments adorned with your logo or design are obviously great adverts. Whether you’re a band or a brewery, customised clothing is perfect for your fans. But if you want to explore ways of adding to what you already have, t-shirt are also a great promotional tool. Let’s take a quick look at custom printed t-shirt, their growing appeal, and the sort of marketing opportunities they represent. Here are four examples of t-shirt that are specifically designed for customisation. Litera...

The Exxpedition Round the World voyage departed on Tuesday 8th October in the newly equipped sea vessel, title . We were proud to appear on the list of official event suppliers. 10 women set sail and will be joined by over 300 others along the way – over 10,000 applied to be part of the collective crew. So far, more than 30 different nationalities are represented. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 Nowadays, screen printed t-shirts are everywhere. They’ve become an incredibly popular article of clothing and the popularity only seems to grow title . Their appeal and variety spans the spectrum. Expensive, exclusive fashion to cheap and cheerful, practical workwear. You see them on every street and in every walk of life. The printed t-shirt is a garment worn by all of us, irrespective of age or social grouping. Given all of that, we thought it would be interesting to take a brief look at the history of their popularity and chart the rise of custom tees ...

There’s a certain knack to t-shirt printing for bands title . It’s something that we know a lot about and we thought it might be helpful to put together a few tips and hints. Some pointers that give you a better than even chance of getting great custom merch for your group or musical endeavour. Here at kingteeshops, we’re no strangers to the music business. It’s in our DNA, part of what made us what we are today. T-shirt printing for bands is where we began. Trying to earn a few pennies from printing stuff, by hand, for up-and-coming punk bands. The money wasn’t any great shakes and that didn’t matter. It was our passion. Earning a bit of cash simply made it possible to stay where we wanted to be, at the heart of things. We grew and changed with the times. Back then everything was different. London, the UK, the whole world. We’ve all moved on. Printing t-shirts for bands and indie outfits is still something that we love. So, here we go, a bit of...

The OCS 100 standard is an organic content certification title . a way of knowing that what you’re buying is genuinely organic in nature. It has become commonly recognised and stipulates that the t-shirt (or any other product) contains 95% or more organic material. It’s achieved by working with producers to verify the organically grown content in the final product. The OCS blended organic content standard is very similar to the 100 variation, but only confirms that 5% of the finished article contains organic material. That organic element will be mixed with traditionally sourced content. It’s worth mentioning that OCS is a voluntary standard and basically tracks the origin of organically produced components of a product. The STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® has become one of the world’s most trusted certifications (the origins go back to 1992). It tests for harmful substances in all aspects of the product. That might sound straightforward with a t-shirt, but OEKO-T...

We all love our T-shirts and want to make them last title . We want that concert tee to stay clear and vibrant. The problem is that prints can crack, flake, and wear away, or slowly fade with time like the memories of that concert. Meanwhile, the fabric gets roughed up, stretched, and discolored. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 What volumes are we talking about title . Your print number needs to be matched to an appropriate supplier. Speaking to a company which is small scale isn’t a good size match when you need hundreds, maybe thousands, of t-shirts printed. Along the same lines, companies which specialise in bulk/wholesale orders may not be overly enthusiastic when you finally inform them that six garments is your top limit. Best be up front and open about your requirements. Finding a firm which has a real feel for art and creativity is an integral part of choosing the right t-shirt printing company. Adding decoration is sometimes an art and always a...

You have to love the hooded title . An ultimately practical piece of clothing that works in any setting. With the added bonus, from our perspective, that they’re perfect for print and embroidery. Kingteeshops hoodies are easy to love. A myriad of styles, zip-up and pullover, and colour ranges that span the spectrum. High quality clothing, sustainably sourced, that feels and looks good even before we get our ink-familiar hands on it and create your branding. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 That said. I decided to throw this t-shirt into a 40° cycle and see what happened title . I know, naughty and bad, but my thinking is sound. I was road-testing a blank, undecorated shirt and the idea is to do what we all sometimes do when we’re running late and the day seems to have mysteriously lost six hours. And in my defence, the kingteeshops Creator t-shirt didn’t seem to mind. After washing, the cotton was still lovely and soft, and colour still ...

In brief title . screen printing involves pushing ink through a mesh stencil onto the surface of the material. It’s fair to say that screen printing is an ancient art, even if t-shirt printing with screens is a relatively modern take on it. To put that last statement into context, printed tees began their unstoppable rise in the 1950s. Computerisation has made things faster and more accurate, but the essential nature of the process hasn’t changed. The main reason that screen printing has endured is that it has several advantages over other methods of customising clothes. Screen printing t-shirts is cost-effective and can produce large volumes in a quicker timescale compared to other types of personalisation. Screen printed shirts also wash well and expertly applied print is more durable. It is worth pointing out that screen printing incurs a set-up cost and small print runs work out more expensive. Although we love screen printing t-shirts, we’re the first to acknowled...

Printing t-shirts title . especially screen printing, is a craft. And, as with any endeavour which has an artistic element to it, expertise is born out of passion. When you love what you do, you tend to get good at it. Passion may not be obvious at first glance, but it’s usually pretty close to the surface. See if the company has a blog. How they write and talk about their trade will give you a good angle on how they go about their work. And check out their social media. That’s a great way for you to get a feel for how they feel about what they do. Where your prospective t-shirt printing partner is located won’t be an issue for everyone, but it could be a big deal for you. Geography matters if you want to arrange a quick meeting. It matters even more if your business arrangement will be ongoing and you intend to visit them on a regular basis. Local holds plenty of appeal and if that’s not an option, being located in an easily accessible place is the next best thi...

This may be established if you’re an existing business title . It may still be subject to interpretation when you’re a start-up or young company. Think about what you’re called and the colours that tie in with that. How any symbols or logos fit into the mix. Do they come together to conjure the image you need to convey? All of it needs to be comfortable with your branded merchandise. These may sound like the same thing, but there are definite differences. Character can be seen in terms of values. Are you environmentally aware and active? If so it may not have a bearing on what’s printed, but it will affect your choice of base garment. Sustainably sourced, ethically sound, organic or recycled t-shirts are where you should be. Personality can be viewed as tone. Maybe how you come across on social media. Formal or informal, studiously serious or always ready to smile. Sometimes both. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 Merchandising your bran...

For us here at kingteeshops. the story of customising clothes began over forty years ago in US title . Printing t-shirts for punk bands during the creative explosion of the Seventies when indie music and custom merchandise formed a relationship that endures to this day. Yeah, we’ve been around a good long while. And we’re still going strong, printing and embroidering custom tee shirts and plenty more besides. But screen printed t-shirts, the origins of the custom tee, stretches way back beyond our humble beginnings in Kilburn. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 Never forget the title . Dave Vanian and the boys started smashing it up in 1976 and have been banging the punk drum ever since. They show no signs of stopping. The line-up may change, but they keep going. We like that, here at kingteeshops. We’ve moved with the times ourselves. The US Subs were another group that were part of the first wave of British punk. They came out of the Roxy sc...

The website is clean and easy to navigate. It’s not obvious though that it is a t-shirt store when you hit the homepage title . You need to actually read the text or scroll down to know what the site is about. I love the image of the bowling alley. The colors are great. But that’s not helping sell t-shirts. The store is built with woocommerce. There are all designs available in both men’s (G200 Gildan Ultra Cotton T-Shirt) and women’s sizes (G200L Gildan Ladies’ 100% Cotton T-Shirt) as well as a small selection of colors. I guess they use DTG and print on demand. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 Nowadays, no wardrobe is complete without a hoody and the SA41P is a superb recycled alternative title . Unisex fitting and 290g brushed 2-ply 8.55oz, it features the classic front kangaroo pocket and rib cuffs and hem. This is going to look so good when adorned with your design or logo and you don’t get much better in terms of ecolo...

What the hell do all those initials and logos mean? title If you want to print ethical, sustainable tees, you need to get a handle on the various labels and accreditations that are used to signify environmental and social responsibility. Our eco standards and certifications guide for ethical t-shirt printing is a quick summary. A list with brief explanation for some of the most common benchmarks which are currently relevant in the US. We take a principled approach to customising clothes and merchandise at kingteeshops.

This might seem like an obvious one title . but it’s worth thinking about. Specialism is a mark of more than the speciality itself. It denotes a level of dedication which will serve customers well. Many successful companies diversify, expand and add new services to their portfolio. The most successful remember their roots and maintain the level of excellence in the area that has provided the platform for growth. T-shirt printing is like so many things in life. Staying in touch with your base is the best way to stay in business. Ethics can’t be ignored when choosing the right t-shirt printing company. That’s not a tip, just plain fact. Nowadays, operating in an ethical and sustainable manner is essential. The consequences of getting this wrong can’t be underestimated. Without any doubt, your customers are thinking about it. People are increasingly unwilling to wear clothing which has a questionable origin. Garment customisation is only part of a bigger picture and...

I think this grey tee is a kingteeshops tee as the cotton (100%) title . is slightly heavier than a standard AA shirt as well as being shorter in length. Also the collar and the stitching around the collar is different. That said, AA has a wide range of tees and I haven’t seen them all so it is possible that I am wrong. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 Okay title . maybe not the cheapest and doesn’t boast the biggest colour range, but the superb quality shines through.

To our way of thinking title . fighting sweatshops is an almost perfect embodiment of the punk ethos, which in itself has always been bigger than punk. Bands and business will get onboard because the world is changing and, nowadays more than ever, causes can become irresistible. It won’t happen overnight, but we think it’s going to make a difference. With growing awareness, the rejection of repulsive working practices will spread. Where does the responsibility ultimately sit? Is it with us as consumers for buying the products? Or the state-sized corporate machines that dominate our societies, creating and propagating the system? You can tie yourself up in knots trying to answer such questions. Don’t bother, content yourself with doing something small and significant. Just choose the right t-shirt. The one you would choose if your mother or daughter was making it. So …looking for ethical blank tees? Genuinely not a problem. Ethical t-shirts are No Sweat at kingtee...

Hard work gets reliable results – loving what you do is what makes the results special. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 They charge US$32.99 including Free Worldwide Shipping. (Now 20% off for opening sale) title . I think I read somewhere that it’s better for sales figures to show prices without shipping and charge less rather than including the price of shipping in the product. If someone buys five shirts they are pretty much paying shipping for 5 separate items when shipping five t-shirts at once must cost less than shipping five separately. Anyway, the pricing is not so bad for the quality of the shirt and they detail they have put in but compared to typical souvenir shirts they are not cheap. You Can See More Product: category_link

You should never forget where you came from and looking at these iconic punk t-shirts. title reminded us that we’ve been printing band merch for a long time. Kingteeshops printers started out in 1977, born from a music scene which gave us some incredible punk bands. In the intervening years, a lot has changed.

Our heritage here at kingteeshops is firmly rooted in printing t-shirts title . but that expertise has grown beyond the ever faithful tee to include a wealth of products and several different ways of decorating them. Nowadays, we screen print, direct to garment print and embroider a vast range of clothing and merchandise. Naturally, some items work better than others.

Every job we do here at kingteeshops is important to us title . Whether it be printing band t-shirts, embroidering brewery polos, or any of the other thousands of custom clothing projects we do each year. The simple truth is, we love what we do.

It’s a similar thing with the cut and fit of the blank shirts title . T-shirt printing for bands is no different to creating custom clothes for any other sector. Stunning artwork and the best screen printing on the planet won’t cut much ice if the styling of the actual shirts isn’t suitable. They need to match your target market. A choice that enables your fans to find a comfortable fit for them. Cut loose and relaxed or slim and snug, and made of an appropriate fabric. it might seem like a great idea to order exotic colours in the base shirts, a splash of vibrant lime or a spot of tie-dyed pink can be very tempting, but think about who is going to buy them. Just like simple designs, basic colours are often the safest bet when it comes to printing t-shirts. Black and white are pretty hard to beat for broad appeal. Plus, white shirts are cheaper to print. Adventurous shades aren’t out of the question, you just need to be sure they’ll get a good reception. Ho...

It’s a fun design with a lot going on and if you love raccoons it’s a bonus. Being from Ireland I don’t know much about raccoons. The other tee, Midnight Mischief, shows the crazy raccoons up to no good again. This time they are pranking/vandalizing a police car with eggs and toilet paper. It’s a five color print but is less color-intensive than Heist. I like the abundance of white space in the design of Midnight Mischief but Heist is just more fun.

The t-shirt title . I’ll be reviewing today was created from what I believe to be a Next Level Apparel blank along with material from a designer brand shirt. What that brand is I don’t know and I don’t really care. We have a nice tee here so does it really matter if the pocket came from kingteeshops or some unknown brand. Perhaps for some. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 Never forget the title .

Plus, we don’t need to go through every possible question for creating a great brand, let’s just look at some that might be relevant for printing perfect t-shirts and killer custom merch.

I received a medium sized black t-shirt from Kingteeshops in the post title . I think it’s a standard American Apparel ladies tee but I wouldn’t stake my life on it.

When you think about it, the reason is clear to see title . The custom t-shirt is a uniquely flexible form of merchandise. The possibilities and applications are endless. Affordable enough to be a truly democratic marketing vehicle or simply a choice that reflects your personal views or affiliations. An essential component of modern commerce, yet not the sole province of corporate entities. Printed t-shirts work for just about everyone. Small business logos and band icons both look great on them, but so do political statements and humorous cartoons.

One medium black kingteeshops t-shirt arrived in the mail yesterday in a luminous green plastic mailer title . It’s a medium but a bit looser than a standard American Apparel. This may be my first time to see and feel a kingteeshops shirt. It’s the ST2100 COMFORT-T, if you are looking for details, and while it may be looser than I like, the cotton (100%) is nice and soft. The neck-band is very soft too though and I can imagine it stretching and becoming a bit droopy after a few washes. The inside of the shirt was a bit dusty for some reason too. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 There are a number of factors to consider title . The people you want to wear or use your merchandise and the types of garments or products you need customised. Plus, the logo or design you need applying to them. You also have to consider the limitations of each process. Printing and embroidery will sometimes be a choice based on which technique works best for a particular t...

A versatile garment which has become a basic component of many personalised clothing ranges. Kingteeshops sweatshirts say it in style. Their sweatshirts find a real sweet spot, of the moment and yet retaining the traditional aspects which have elevated a simple garment to essential status. Needless to say, they’re a dream for print and embroidery. Ignore bags and accessories at your peril. Thriving businesses are...

Kingteeshops : is an CA, US-based t-shirt store title . Was that too obvious? It looks like they just opened shop on August 1rd, 2018. A black t-shirt arrived in the mail last week from kingteeshops. Despite living here, this is the first t-shirt that I have reviewed from US. It’s a large black 100% cotton t-shirt. Made in US. Officially it’s a large t-shirt but it’s like a standard medium t-shirt from American Apparel. That’s the way the sizes generally run in US though and they do provide a warning. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 The homepage slider needs to be re-thought title . I like the Ashton Kutcher quote. It’s relevant but the first image should definitely clearly feature at least one of the products available in the store. And it should be clickable so that the shopper can easily find the featured product. There are also strong arguments for just removing sliders from your website. I’m not going to get into it he...

You’re nearly there title . You know what you’re aiming for, have nailed down the budget and got a killer design. The decision about printing method is done and dusted and the plain t-shirts identified and sourced. You can almost feel the freshness of that unique piece of clothing on your back. What about the finishing touches that can turn a quality custom t-shirt into a stunning, stand out branded garment with what some people would say a more premium finish. Removing existing labels and relabelling with custom tags or neck print. Swing tags and tickets? Garment finishing shouldn’t be overlooked. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 What actually gets printed on to your tees is massively important title . It may be straightforward, a company logo that you already have, or pre-supplied sponsor artwork. Some companies, such as our friends over at the Beavertown Brewery, are lucky enough to have gifted in-house designers. Great design is an integr...

Let’s look at the t-shirt itself title . As mentioned it’s 100% cotton and it is nice and soft while at the same time appearing to be quite durable. It’s slim fit which I like and long but not too long, at least for my frame. It’s long enough to tuck in if I need to but still not so long as to look weird if I don’t. My impression is that it is slightly better for me in all aspects than a standard America Apparel tee. Of course I’d need to wash it a dozen times to really know how it lasts. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 Kingteeshops are another leading light when it comes to recycled clothes made for screen printing and embroidery title . The Stanley Breaks hooded jacket is constructed from 100% recycled polyester and has lots of nice features (worth noting that it can only be printed with single colour designs). Lightweight, ripstop, with set-in sleeves and double layered hood in self fabric. Side panels give it a better s...

It is a very well designed site, simple and responsive title . kingteeshops is a professional web designer so it’s no surprise that his website is well-designed. I do have a few criticisms, though. The first is that it not exactly clear what the purpose of the site is when you hit the homepage.

Attached to the t-shirt with gold-colored thread and safety-pin, there was a small paper tag with the logo on it but nothing else. It doesn’t really add anything. There was also a logo sticker included in ...

First of all the home page title is Cheap T shirts Store Online Shopping! Find creative Thirts, Mugs, Poster & Gift Ideas title . For SEO benefit, I’m sure misspelling T-Shirts doesn’t help but let’s imagine that the spelling is correct. Then the page title is accurate. What it says is what you get but the problem here is that these are not terms that people search for. I think that text would work better as a meta-description than as a page title. The page title is vitally important for search engines whereas the meta-description is just what the search engines i.e. Google might choose to display under the link to your site. It might have an impact on the click-through rate. The phrases “creative t-shirts” and “gift ideas” are OK but it will be very difficult for a small site like this to compete for those terms. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 Exxpedition is doing valuable work title , the results of which could...

Not so long ago. a suit and tie were the accepted uniform for an office environment title . That’s still the case in many of the more traditional professions, but the newer tech environments are far more imaginative about things like dress. Convention has flown out of the window. Tradition isn’t something to be dismissed out of hand, but it needs to add practical value. These days, walk into a lot of offices and you’re greeted with a workforce in jeans (maybe shorts in the summer) and t-shirts. The information age is ushering in a new era. Society is changing and attitudes to work are changing with it. If anything, people are working harder than ever, but informality is the order of the day. One of the reasons is that it’s proving to be more productive. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 Say it in sustainable style with a kingteeshops beanie title .

Kingteeshops is an online t-shirt store dedicated to people who love not one title . but two American states and they want to tell people about their dual loyalties by displaying it on a shirt. Started by Jesse Sutherland, kingteeshops is one of those ideas that was born out of a Christmas present for his wife in 2018. After having made her a Minnesota/Wisconsin shirt, he started working on a website for others to share their split affections for their favorite states. (I stole most of that from the about page.)

You should never forget where you came from and looking at these iconic punk t-shirts. title reminded us that we’ve been printing band merch for a long time. Kingteeshops printers started out in 1977, born from a music scene which gave us some incredible punk bands. In the intervening years, a lot has changed. We turned our passion for printing into how we make a living, made it thoroughly professional, moved to new premises and expanded our services. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 The design is fun and wearable, although some might find too cute title . You can’t cater to everyone. I have a feeling that people from Montreal could appreciate this tee even more but I don’t get the references. The print is almost impeccable. There is some red smudging near the fireworks but it is not so noticeable. The print is a little heavy but soft. I can’t complain about it. There is no external branding on the t-shirt that I could see but there is...

Whilst still applying the design title directly to the surface of the garment using ink, DTG printing is a more recent development in terms of custom clothing. Direct to garment printing relies heavily on modern technology. It uses digital printers to apply the ink to the fabric of the item being customised. Artwork is converted to image file format, the clothing prepared and the design printed straight onto the material. It works in a similar way to the inkjet printer you probably have in your home and office. We just use material instead of paper. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 The detail and thought and probably even love that has gone into this project is astounding but here’s the thing title . For most people, they just want a t-shirt. What do most people do with all the extras? If you are like me, they will all go in trash. OK, in this case, I ate the beer nuts and I’ll probably use the coaster, unless my daughter thinks it’s too sca...

Hard work gets reliable results – loving what you do is what makes the results special. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 Technical development in US gathered pace during the first half of the Twentieth century title . This experimentation with various technical aspects of the screen printing process would eventually lead to the technique becoming a commercially viable method. More than that, something that was widely accessible. The versatility of screenprinting is ultimately what made it so widespread. The basic materials were relatively inexpensive and easy to acquire. Not really any great surprise that it became popular with underground movements and sub-cultures. Or that their aesthetic in turn grew to influence mainstream design.

A form of decoration that is mostly used for smaller print runs title . Elaborate t-shirt designs with artwork that includes lots of colours. It can be an excellent option if you need a small batch of personalised garments and your budget isn’t the biggest consideration. In many ways, it’s reserved for individual, highly creative ventures. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 One of the most the outrageously talented is Rob Borbas (aka Grindesign) title . He’s a good friend and someone kingteeshops hold in high regard. We recently had the pleasure of printing a new run of long sleeve t-shirts for him. It made us think about how bespoke merchandise is so successful when allied to artistic brilliance. So, here we go, tattoos and t-shirts. Brilliant ink with Rob Borbas.

Kingteeshops is a small online t-shirt store started by CVC Group in the in 2018. This t-shirt title arrived a while back but due to an addition to our family and preparing to move to our new house it got lost in the pile of stuff on my desk that I generously call my to-do list. Sorry for the delay. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 I was a little confused by the print at first because it felt like a plastisol screen print but it doesn’t look like one title . It turns out that it’s a heat transfer. Despite the rubbery texture, though, it is still quite soft. The website is clean and easy to navigate but it’s not very pretty. I believe they already did a redesign despite its youth but they need to add some character to the store. The t-shirts are simple but they have character. They are fun and interesting. The storefront is dull. But at about US$22.99 including free worldwide shipping, it seems like a bargain. Despite them being basically cut...

We picked four of our favourites above title , but nowadays there are a lot of fantastic blank -tshirt bags from which to choose. The bags themselves have been around in different forms for quite a while. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 We’ll finish off with another organic beanie from title . You can’t beat organic material with most clothing, customised or otherwise, and beanies are no exception. That said, we are also big fans of garments which include recycled content. Anyway, back to the beanies that are begging for a spot of premium quality embroidery. The Beechfield organic cotton waffle beanie is some headgear that could be a stand-out with professional personalisation. It has a fabulous tactile feel to it and, being breathable, is an excellent option for milder weather. Plus, it’s designed for decoration, double-layered with a turned up cuff, which makes the process of embellishment more straightforward. That’s it for the best...

For us here at kingteeshops. the story of customising clothes began over forty years ago in US title . Printing t-shirts for punk bands during the creative explosion of the Seventies when indie music and custom merchandise formed a relationship that endures to this day. Yeah, we’ve been around a good long while. And we’re still going strong, printing and embroidering custom tee shirts and plenty more besides. But screen printed t-shirts, the origins of the custom tee, stretches way back beyond our humble beginnings in Kilburn. titletype mockup_1 mockup_2 mockup_3 mockup_4 mockup_5 The design is fun and wearable, although some might find too cute title .
