Your Own Custom Band Shirts & Merch – with Spreadshirt

your-own-custom-band-shirts-merch-%e2%80%93-with-spreadshirt

Selling your own band shirts is a must for any ambitious band and, of course, its fans. More often than not band shirts can be a big pain in the bass for the band.
 
Who will decide which selection you will offer up for sale? What colours and sizes will you have made and bring to the concert? What about the shipping and payment? What should we print and what will the fans like?
 
We think the band should worry more about their music. And there’s certainly no longer a need to have boxes of band shirts laying around in your living room or garage anymore.

If you want to sell your own band t-shirts, but want to give it a try first or take it slowly, then we suggest opening up a band t-shirt and merchandise shop. A Spreadshirt shop is free and doesn’t require you to invest anything up front. This makes a Spreadshirt shop ideal for bands new and old that want to spend more time making music than printing t-shirts, storing them etc. From tour shirts to band logo shirts, you let your customers decide what they want to buy.

A Spreadshirt shop is quick to set-up and you can integrate it into your website, into your exisiting merchandise shop or add a Spreadshirt MySpace app to your page.

So, now you’ll have more time to do what you do best: music. Or, to shoot videos showing off your merch.

Coast to Coast – Riding through the Pyrenees by Bike

coast-to-coast-riding-through-the-pyrenees-by-bike


More often than not you come across Spreadshirt shops where the shirts themselves aren’t exactly the goal – but rather the message they hold. Such is the case with Guido’s “Coast to Coast” shirt shop. The shirts found there are tour shirts for a very special trip: Guido is traveling alone by bike from the Mediterranean Sea to the Atlantic Ocean – coast to coast. But, that’s enough from me – I’ll let him speak for himself. He is starting his long journey today along the “Gran Recorrido 11” – a 840 km long trail with elevation changes of 38,000 meters.

Why did you choose this route? What is so special about the GR 11?

The route fascinates me. You start on one coast and end up on another. Along this route you come across single tracks which are constantly climbing or descending, as well as technically challenging mountain trails. There are two trails that run through the Pyrenees from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic – the GR 10 on the French side and the GR 11 on the Spanish side. The Spanish side should be a bit drier and less vegetation. We will start on the Mediterranean Cap de Creus and our destination is Fuenterrabia on the Atlantic coast.

Your website mentions bears and wolves – how dangerous is this journey you are undertaking? continue reading ‘Coast to Coast – Riding through the Pyrenees by Bike’

White T-Shirts to Beat the Heat

Hot is white - white is hot
Hot is white – white is hot by Anne Pollmer

With temperatures at an all time high – it’s no surprise that you will do whatever you can to keep the heat off your body. And what’s the best way to do this? Of course, with white apparel! White doesn’t absorb heat – so it makes sense why it has been a summer fashion trend for quite a while. This trend is one of the few clothing options you have to stay dry in the heat.

That doesn’t exactly mean that you should mummify yourself from head to toe in white. For example, guys can combine a white tank top with colourful Bermuda shorts and snazzy-but not too wild trainers might cause an unexpected rise in temperature for us ladies. Of course you can take things up a notch and move away from the casual to trés-chic by dawning a white suit for an evening out.

Gals – and my wardrobe can back this up – I follow the motto “the more variety, the better”. Whether it’s dresses, tunics or blouses, the tank top has quite a bit of competition in this area. White doesn’t always have to be associated with innocence. Combine the dress with cognac-coloured accessories and you’ll already have achieved a fresh, summery contrast.

So – you can rely on the fact that white will always remain a fashion trend for the warm months. If you combine it well, white can look good on just about anyone.

Still-Life A40: Spreadshirt Bandanas Make Their Mark

still-life-a40-spreadshirt-bandanas-make-their-mark

This is a party I am sorry to have missed. The Still-Life A40 party on Sunday made news across Europe for its enormous size and undertaking. The facts: 3 million visitors, 20,000 tables, and 60km of motorway between Duisburg and Dortmund. We were then more than pleased to get this message from some participants who were able to make it, in Spreadshirt style:

Hello,
Here is a picture of the German and English oldies with their bandanas doing a dress-rehersal for the Still-Life A40.
We got 2 tables at the event and were even in the papers.
Tomorrow and almost every day, we have a full visitors program, so just a quick note: warm up your machines – I desperately need another delivery of 20 bandanas.
Payment to come on my husband’s MasterCard.
Heidi


I assume the majority of you weren’t able to make it to the Still-Life party – so check out this cool and interactive 360° map and walk the 60km yourself! Bonus points for those who find our bandanas!

New Shirts in Sizes Baby to XL

I am very happy to finally introduce you to our new oversize shirts for men and women. I am happy, because you have been waiting so long for those products. The deal was due to the low availability of oversize shirts for women. So we had them made for us, which also added a bit to the delay.
But now they are here, and they are hot. For women, we offer sizes X-Large thru 3X-Large in white, black, light navy, red, magenta and clover green. This shirt is produced by Continental Clothing and has a very feminine style.

The male version is now available in sizes 3X-Large through 5 X-Large in white, black, navy, red and forest green. It is produced by Promodoro. The length of the 4XL shirt is very similar to 3XL Men’s T-Shirt from American Apparel. This is because of the different size proportions in Europe and North America.

Not only for men and women, another department of our assortment was also newly stocked with new products and colours. continue reading ‘New Shirts in Sizes Baby to XL’

(Wet) T-Shirt Contest – Stay Cool With T-Shirts

wet-t-shirt-contest-stay-cool-with-t-shirts


I thought I would beat the heat by biking to work a little earlier than normal. I was wrong. Good reason #74 to work at a t-shirt company: you have plenty of t-shirts around to change into. Shorts, flip-flops and t-shirts (and the occasional summer dress) are a dime a dozen here at the Spreadshirt Headquarters. Good reason #14 to work at a t-shirt company: every day is casual Friday. How are you staying cool in this heat?

We WANT to see your photos! Show us how to stay cool with t-shirts – either by wearing them or using them to stay cool. The best photo wins a free t-shirt coupon and the first 100 participants will get a €10/£10 voucher (min. order value of €30/£30 – winners will be contacted via e-mail or Facebook message after the competition). Our “Cool T-shirt Contest” ends on Monday, 19 July at 2pm – when the day is at its hottest. Simply add your submissions here as a comment or upload onto our Facebook wall.
Update: We have a winner – look at this nice fotoset. Thanks for your participation!

Looking for some inspiration? Ami and I tried out a few ideas.
