ADVANTAGES
T-shirts are popular in Seattle
When you print a Seattle T-Shirt, you’re producing an item virtually anyone can wear. When it comes to tees, people may like or dislike the design but not the garment itself. You may hear people arguing that they don’t enjoy wearing jumpers, maybe even trousers, but never a T-shirt.
They work great as promotional material.
It is no wonder that almost every company and/or brand has an official T-shirt with its logo on it. These garments outlast any other printed material and can take your message to an audience you otherwise wouldn’t have access to.
Easy process
While different techniques have different requisites, printing T-shirts is a straightforward process. All you need is a design, a T-shirt, and a printing technique.
They make great giveaways.
Following up with our first tip, T-shirts make great giveaways and gifts because most people can and will wear them.
It allows you to be creative.
T-shirts are very versatile garments, allowing you to modify them in pretty much any way your mind can think of. Not only do they make great canvases for prints, but they can also be easily modified by cutting or adding material.
DISADVANTAGES
It’s not environmentally friendly.
Even though some companies are taking measures to battle it, the clothing industry it’s still one of the most polluting in the world. Even if you decide to print your garments at home, there’s no guarantee that the T-shirt you’re using as a base was manufactured in an environmentally friendly way.
It’s not going to last forever.
Yes, it may sound like I’m contradicting myself, but bear with me. Unfortunately, no print will last forever. Some printing techniques of high quality ensure a long-lasting design, but even those will eventually fade.
It doesn’t reach a wide audience.
This mostly refers to when using a T-shirt as Seattle promotional material. Unlike the internet, which can reach a global audience in seconds, tees will only impact those in the visual range. Some would argue that you could upload a picture of a T-shirt to the web, and it would be correct, but the chances of it reaching a substantial amount of views without paid advertisement are slim.
Requires planning and organization
As we mentioned, T-shirt printing is a straightforward process, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t require planning. Especially when it comes to printing in bulk, printing requires an organized production. Garments must be ordered, suppliers must be contacted, and the design has to be prepared.
It’s hard to stand out from the crowd.
Depending on your ultimate goal, you may find it difficult for your T-shirt to stand out among the millions and millions of others that are out there. Thanks to online printing services, anyone, and their mother can print T-shirts cheaply, too! It will not be easy if you’re trying to convey a message or make people notice your brand.
