Write-It-Yourself T-Shirts!
 
Hi,

I just came across this idea... A "Write-It-Yourself" T-Shirt!

Essentially, the T-shirt has part of the message, and you write in the rest...





Although this started from a particular "geek" subculture - I can see how this idea could be adapted to all sorts of things...

Cheers,

Re: Write-It-Yourself T-Shirts!
 
Thanks Dien. This is an excellent idea for t-shirts.

Change the wordings a bit. Maybe add other easier fill-in-the-blanks. Or leave it totally blank.

And market it at special events and trade shows. Where people can write down their name and phone number. Have their photos taken. Etc... I think the shirts have good potential.

Anyone know what kind of material the washable part is in?

(Thinkgeek has some really whacky stuff. And their copywriting is fantastic too. Just the right amount of funny. Very hard to pull off.)
