anyone ever had a t-shirt printed for their business?

I'm thinking of getting one for myself but only want one. I think digital printing has no set up costs

has anyone used this company before? http://www.tshirtstudio.com/

Don't tempt me... up for any kind of displacement activity to avoid having to get the new stock on the site...

I've used them. I just got one T-shirt printed too for going round the Allergy Show early on in the year.

I was pleased with the result and they delivered it really quickly.

Just been to check and mine is a size L - it's V necked and says Lady-Fit on the label. I'm a size 12/14.

Ours has our photography name on it plus a pic-if it is bike raceing we are going to we wear the ones with a bike pic n if it is a family kinda thing say the fair or something we wear the ones with a portrait on-it is good advertising.:happy72:

I've been looking at them but can't see me wearing it other than at the two fairs I am doing later in the year. I'd end up feeling shy and keeping my coat on :cheesy:
Tanya

It won't bother me wearing it. I'm used to wearing company logos and stuff at work as we have to wear their polo shirts

I've had my phone number printed on this one. If I'm walking around MK shopping centre people might take note of the web addy and phone number :cheesy:

I get quite a few people asking approaching me about signing as its plastered across my car window. I've had people stop me as I've got out the car on my driveway, at the country park, outside the hotel on our wedding day, etc but no one local has ever bought anything. The most local order I've had is from Hannah Banana.

my neighbours have bought things from me before. I always make sure I don't leave the house without a box of business cards.

my t-shirt has been despatched and will be here tomorrow :hyper::hyper:

I'm going to make sure I take it to the hospital with me and wear it when I come home so everyone can see it :cheesy:

mass panic now, what if I've spelt something wrong, what if it doesn't fit

will take a piccie when it arrives gd12

Big male sizing. You know how a big T shirt on a big busted lady just makes her look fat - that was me :cheesy: I think I need a fitted T shirt with a lower neck line. No excuse there for DH he just said he felt dumb.

I think that actually the bigger problem was that the ogo went right across the chest. A nice smaller one to one side would have looked much better.

Oh well- they will be OK on the mannequins.

my t-shirt arrived this morning :hyper:

it looks really good apart from the logo on the back is blurry :unsure: might have uploaded the wrong res file but hey ho

it's like my walking business card :hysterica

I've already worn it to the doctors and I'm off to the chemist in a mo, don't think I have the confidence to wear it round Tesco's yet :laugh:

I have put my business cards and mz brochures in the car in case I get stopped by anyone :cheesy:

no I've got a big logo on the front too, I'm not happy with the logo on the back because it's blurry and I wish I'd put a smaller one on

It looks great.

Slightly off topic but I have been to Makro in Eccles this morning and they are doing clothing embroidered with your company name on.

The cotton t-shirts were £2.00 plus VAT, the polo shirts were £4.00 plus VAT and the sweatshirts were £6.00 plus VAT. Think they were Fruit of the Loom.

Then you paid to have the wording embroidered - for 1 line of small writing it was £1.00 per line and £2.50 for medium/large. They also did hats for £1.50 plus the embroidery cost.

Clothing in various colours and sizes.

They said that only 3 of the Makro stores were doing it, them and one near London and they thought the other one was in Hull.
