Band t shirts come in a variety of different styles. Some designs include a picture of the entire band, while others limit the mention to a small logo in an inconspicuous area on the shirt.
With the popularity of the common tee shirt among high school and college students, many schools have had to make rules about the kind of t shirt that is appropriate for students to wear at school, and often band t shirts find their way onto the restricted list.
Punk and rock band designed shirts are most popular with teenagers. They are cool and there is usually an interesting logo or scene on the front of the shirt that make it a desirable item of clothing. When you attend a show, sometimes the cheapest souvenir is a band t shirt and they are on sale seemingly wherever you turn at the venue. Aside from purchasing band t shirts at shows and concerts, there is a thriving market on the Internet for specialty t shirts featuring favorite bands and performers.
A good band t shirt is one that has a cool design, fits well, and is inexpensive. Many people collect band t shirts so it makes sense to find them cheap.
You can find some good bargains on band t shirts at ebay, as long as you don’t mind if they’re used. If you find yourself in search of a hard to find band t shirt that you are unable to locate anywhere else, looking up a site on the Internet that specializes in t shirts and entertainment merchandise is a better way to go than searching through random shops for the particular design you are interested in.
Band t shirts also come in many different fits, such as the girl fit tee that hugs the waist and flares out a bit at the bottom, and many stores offer extended sizes so that the t shirt is roomier. This is especially important for heavyset men or women who prefer their band t shirts with a little extra room.
Sleeve length is another factor to consider when choosing the style of band t shirts to buy. Some people prefer three-quarter sleeved t shirts while others prefer no coverage on their shoulders at all. Still yet there is the old standby of the traditional short sleeved shirt.
A Quick Personal Story about Custom Designed Band T Shirts
Last year, my husband’s band spent some money to get some custom printed t shirts. The problems began when they left them in a town far away, and did not get them back for six months.
They were selling them to their fans to help fund their next recording project, but it’s kind of hard to sell merchandise that is left in a bin in the back of a club. While you don’t want to leave something somewhere, you can learn from their example if you really want to make some money for whatever reason you have.
If you have a band, you can do the same thing that my husband’s group has done. You can usually find a good price for your t shirts and then sell them for as little as ten dollars. For great looking mod and hip attire, this is a really good bargain, and those that like your band are going to buy them. Not only are you making some money, you are also getting some really great advertising for free. When guys and girls wear the shirts on the street, others will see the name of your band, and may even ask about you.
You don’t have to have a band to do custom printed t shirts to sell. You can sell your own designs, but do make sure your designs are yours. You cannot reprint something someone else has made and then sell it for your own profit. Your designs have to be ones that you have made on your own.
You can find many great places to sell your own custom printed t shirts, and you may find that you love this as a business to make money on the side. This can lead to other things, and you may find your designs are so popular you can’t keep up with the demand.
You don’t have to have profit in mind when you design your own clothes. Some like to have these as a birthday or Christmas gift or when they have a large party like a family or class reunion. You can also have them made up as a give away for promotional purposes, or you could sell them for charity.
Whatever the case, find a good printer and order a large number for the best price per shirt. Complete your design and triple check for accuracy before you send them off, and then enjoy them once they are done.
Cost is usually not an issue when it comes to promotional gear—after all, you are promoting their product for free every time you wear your t shirt. This is especially true with less well known bands or new musical groups who want to get the word out about their performance.
Established bands like The Rolling Stones can charge a ton for their band t shirts because they are a long standing icon and people usually want to own a shirt with their name or logo on it. But, who knows, your custom t shirts might make you famous too!
