Just wanted to share some pictures from the Spreadshirt t-shirt day party in Boston. We set up a tent at the farmers market in Copley Square and invited people to stop by to pick up their free t-shirt.
Here is the Spreadshirt tent:
Here is a happy t-shirt lover with their t-shirt. Check out some of the other t-shirts that people ordered here.
Spreaders is the term we use to refer to people who work for Spreadshirt. Since today is International T-shirt day, we asked everyone to wear and share their favorite t-shirts. Here are some Spreaders and their favorite t-shirts…
Row 1:
Robby - This was a gift but I love it because of the bright colors. It is also very comfortable and goes with anything.
Julie M. - It’s a comfortable shirt. I’m not crazy about Jim Beam but it will do.
Row 2:
Amy - I love my baby. Her name is Sage Marie. She is a Libra and is 11 ½ years old. Her favorite color is hot pink and just loves pretzels.
Tim - I have a collection of t-shirts. They are the most comfortable thing I have. Some represent times in my life or things that I like. This is a cool band.
Here is the scoop- on June 20, 2008 - Spreadshirt is celebrating International T-shirt Day - as part of the celebration we are hosting an event in Boston, MA.

Come and Celebrate with us!
The first International T-Shirt Day is an initiative of Spreadshirt. Our goal is to make the first summerday in the year (June 20th in the US, June 21st in Europe) the “International T-Shirt Day”. We will celebrate with local events in Berlin and Boston, but feel free to join us if you’re residing some place else!
Why would you celebrate the T-Shirt Day?
First of all, T-Shirts are our business and we love them as a medium of self-expression. Second: Because we feel it’s time to celebrate the “most universal fashion garment”. Think of the role T-Shirts have played in popular culture. Think of all the memories that are connected to your favourite shirts. Of all the political, thoughtful or just funny messages people are carrying around on their chests and backs. And at the same time how fashionable T-Shirts are. We think, these are enough reasons to celebrate. (Of course, you can also think: lucky me, I got another excuse for just going out and party without having to make up a reason myself…).
And why would you celebrate it on 20th and the 21st of June?
This day is the first day of summer, and the longest day of the year - which day could be more perfect to wear T-Shirts all day long? And yes, it happens to be on two different dates in the United States and Europe. Nevertheless, it´s the international beginning of the t-shirt season, on which you shouldn´t have to worry about countless layers of clothes to feel good.
And why in Boston and Berlin? How can I join?
Berlin and Boston are the places in which we will celebrate (because we’re located there) - and you´re more than welcome to join. We will let you know about the location details soon.
If you’re too far away, living in New Zealand or Guadelope feel free to celebrate in your area. Meet with your friends, listen to music, have some ice cream and drinks - chat about your favourite T-Shirt and enjoy the day together with us. Just make sure you let us know how you celebrate: tag your pictures, videos, blogposts, twitter-streams with t-day08 (and we’ll do the rest).
