Organic Clothing for Your Business

CBD Vitality Organic Hoodie and T-shirts

2020 is certainly the year offering more organic and sustainable options in business attire. Teepig offers Organic Clothing for your business and you can design online here.

Not only do top clothing brands offer more in the organic and sustainable range, they have exceeded the quality of the garments. For example, Mantis, a UK company has produced some of the best clothing available on the market. Their Superstar range of T-shirt and hoodies have an incredibly soft touch. This is because of the ‘peaching’ applied to the fabric. Peaching leaves it with a suede or moleskin softness. Personally if I can recommend a hoodie it will be the superstar by Mantis.
As of writing this post these styles are not currently in our store for online design. Nevertheless, contact us if you want these styles personalised with your brand or business logo.

Recently we have supplied two local start up businesses with their T-shirts and hoodies. Fill Good Pantry in Portishead is a zero waste shop geared for you to bring your own containers to purchase foodstuff. CBD Vitality also opted for organic t-shirts and hoodies. In fact, they are so impressed by the Mantis printed hoodies they have ordered more! Both of these new businesses have interests in health and sustainability. Custom printed organic clothing is a natural requirement. Our own shop Sk8 or Die offers organic T-shirts and also bags made from recycled plastic.

Organic Clothing for your business printed professionally in full colour with your brand or business logo.

It’s time to jump on the sustainable bandwagon. Get your fresh, customised business T-shirts printed by Teepig. Keep a look out for more styles and brands we are adding to the online store. Don’t hesitate to contact us and tell us what you need if you don’t see it. We can likely get it in for you!

Swimming Club Polo and T shirts

Swimming Club Polo Shirts

Just completed: The Portishead Amateur Swimming Club polo and T-shirts.

Not all of our orders come from online. As we are based in Portishead we also serve the town and wider community for garment printing.
The Portishead Amateur Swimming Club got in contact about new polos for the teachers and new T-shirts for the volunteers.
The polo shirts required embroidering although the artwork on the previous shirts only existed on the shirts! That means the logo had to be redrawn.
You see, that’s another service Teepig offers. We can design or edit new or existing artwork for your club attire.

Sometimes doing things the old fashioned way is the only way to get exactly what you want. Even though our online designer can be quick and easy to use, with plenty of great garments to choose from, sometimes you need a little advice on what’s best.

Choosing the right polo shirt.

In this case, someone from the club contacted us to ask what polos would be ideal for embroidering on the front and printing on the back. We offered the Gildan Dryblend for its sweat-wicking properties. Standing on the side of the pool can be hot work so a polo that helps you keep cooler would certainly top the pile.
We embroidered the left breast logo and printed ‘Swimming Teacher’ on the back using the sublimation process. The yellow text contrasts very nicely with the black of the shirt. Even the colours of the embroidery was changed slightly from the previous shirts for aesthetic purposes.
The colour chosen for the volunteer T-shirts was light blue. The style was the Gildan premium T-shirt. A decent quality tee that isn’t too thin nor too thick.

The Swimming Club polo and T-shirts were ready within the week!

Who can benefit?

Sports clubs, committees and community groups can all get their custom embroidered polos and printed T-shirts from Teepig. Also, Advice on garments and decorating techniques is always given freely and happily.  Teepig prints club polos and T shirts professionally in full colour with amazing detail.

Tattoo T-shirts

Tattoo T-shirts

At Teepig we love printing art onto T-shirts. Art otherwise reserved for tattoo studios can look really amazing on T-shirts as well. We offer printed Tattoo T-shirts.
If you work as a tattoo artist then maybe you should think about adding new a media to your canvasses. After all, there are many people out there who love tattoo art but for whatever reason – they’re a bit nervous about getting ink, they’ve run out of skin – they want to take something away with them just not as permanent as a tattoo.

Our good friend and neighbour in Portishead, The Black Lodge, is a tattoo studio who have recently asked us to print T-shirts for them. With several tattoo artists creating different styles of artwork they are adding more products in their studio. Original T-shirts printed with their own work will be going on sale. You can see some of the tattoos here.
Sailor and nautical style tattoos are popular again. This style of traditional tattoo was made especially famous in the early 20th Century by Sailor Jerry of Hawaii who would tattoo Pacific sailors with images of rum bottles, bare breasted women, eagles, wildcats, snakes and daggers.
Because of the bold outlines and simple colours these images look fantastic on T-shirts.
As a tattooist having your art printed on T-shirts is further advertisement and another source of income. It is a way to grow your brand. And as it is not just your livelihood but also your passion you’ll want the quality of T-shirt and print to be high end. Teepig can provide advice on appropriate T-shirts, hoodies and sweaters which will compliment your work.

A particular charity close to our hearts is bemoreben. Set up by the parents of Benjamin Pritchard who sadly lost his well fought battle at age 8. Because of this heartbreaking loss the Benjamin Pritchard Foundation was founded. The foundations there to aid bereaving families after the death of a child. From this the memory of Ben will live on. Furthermore, helping these poor families.

Personalised T-shirt for a Birthday Gift

Gift Ideas – Personalised T-shirt

Do you need to buy a gift but you’re out of ideas?

A personalised T-shirt makes a fantastic birthday gift. The best part is you can get one for as little as £10.
This is your time to get creative and design a T-shirt which will no doubt make a great present for someone special.
Do you need gift ideas?
You could have your friend’s most used phrase, a slogan, a photo, a drawing or piece of art – pretty much anything printed on a T-shirt.
It’s easy to do. By using the online designer, within minutes you can design and submit a print for customised T-shirt which you will receive in the post within just a few days.
With our DTG and sublimation process Teepig is able to keep the cost low of one-off personalised T-shirts. Moreover, that is not compromising quality in the slightest. Both processes can deliver high quality prints on T-shirts, photos are no problem at all – in fact they look just great.

 

If it’s funny put it on a T-shirt

A funny, personalised T-shirt would really make a memorable birthday gift. For example, if your friend has a unique phrase that sets you off into fits of laughter get it on a T-shirt.
How about a funny photo? Your friend may have been caught in a compromising photo, what better way to get a laugh out of them by having that funny photo printed on a T-shirt.
It doesn’t even have to be about them. For instance, if you have shared a funny joke recently or have found a funny image use it!

Personal Touch

All of this is just to give you some inspiration. It’s really down to you. At a time when most people have everything they need, buying a gift can be quite stressful. That is why a gift with a personal touch would mean so much more. It doesn’t have to be funny, it could be artistic or sentimental. You know the person you’re making it for, they will surely appreciate the thoughtfulness you have invested in a gift.

For even more inspiration check out the online designer. This is where, after you’ve chosen your garment, you can explore thousands of photos and a huge selection of font templates. You can even choose to personalise a hoodie or sweater for a birthday present.
