Whether you’re promoting your business or a special event, custom T-shirts make wonderful giveaway items. As with all custom apparel, they allow anyone wearing them to act as promotional assistants for your brand imprint. Wherever they go, your custom logo will be on display. And unlike so many other promotional items, T-shirts can last for years if they’re properly cared for, which really stretches the reach of your promotional budget.
But what size T-shirt should you hand out? You want to offer people shirts that fit, but you can’t guess shirt sizes before a promotional giveaway event. Might we suggest that you opt to go larger rather than smaller? If a shirt is too small for someone, it’s essentially unwearable. But if a shirt is too big, it’s easy to shrink, using the instructions found at
Keep in mind that these instructions work best for shirts that are made from 100% cotton. That means that when you choose from our list of custom T-shirts (available at check the description for material used. If the shirt is 100% cotton, the description will likely tell you. If you’re still not sure, go to for information on how to contact us directly.
*DISCLAIMER: It is recommended that you check the care tag and/or contact the manufacturer of your garment before attempting either of these shrinking methods. While these methods work best for cotton shirts, results may still vary.
