Let’s look at the t-shirt itself Snoopy and Charlie playing Kansas City Chiefs shirt. 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.
Snoopy and Charlie playing Kansas City Chiefs shirt, hoodie, sweater, longsleeve and ladies t-shirt
Nobody is suggesting that plain t-shirts are on their way out Snoopy and Charlie playing Kansas City Chiefs shirt. However, there does appear to be a greater willingness to experiment with pattern and effects. Tie dyes, dip dyes, and batik dyes. Extracting the main colour in random patches or adding to it with all over prints. From a screen printer’s perspective, these techniques can limit what’s printed since the design needs to accommodate the variation in the background fabric. That said, these garments can be the basis for some stunning results. Quite a few blank clothing brands are producing this kind of stuff and we’ve shown Build your Brand, Colortone and Stanley Stella above. The design printed on the Bleach-Out shirt by Colortone is a good illustration of what can be achieved with these type of t-shirts.
White, black and grey are timeless fashion colours and staple choices when it comes to printing and embroidery. Including them on this piece can’t be avoided because they’re a constant and therefore an integral part of any trend. Contrast is often one of the more basic requirements for screen printing, a surface that lets the message shine bright, and white and black offer clear advantages in that respect. Grey may not provide quite the same level of contrast, but it is a delightfully inoffensive blank canvas for decoration. That’s about it now on colour trends for custom printing in 2021. We wanted to end on a reassuring note. Whichever way the wind blows, whatever the current vogue, monochrome retains a magical appeal and is here to stay when it comes to customisation. You won’t go too far wrong when printing white t-shirts.
It’ll be fascinating to see what appears in this year’s seasonal launches …hang on, this might need a revisit when the winter collections hit the bricks!
