The best T-shirt for Dad Bods

What’s the best T-shirt for your body shape?
If you are a man between thirty and fifty, like a beer and burger, try to fit in a game of football or rugby between work and looking after the kids the chances are you’ll have a ‘dad bod’- a body with decent muscle under some insulation and an inch or two extra on the waist.
You may think you’re still fit and when you breathe in you look as slender as you did when you were twenty-two but the reality is you don’t. What you wear can make a difference.

Firstly don’t get too jealous. These young lads can’t put it away like you. And their time will come. You may be even proud of your timber. If you are a semi-fitted style T-shirt would work for you. The Gildan Ringspun Softstyle is a first choice for personalised T-shirt decoration. At fantastic value it prints well and looks great on slim to not so slim bodies alike. It takes the shape of the body, hugs the arms slightly but doesn’t ever seem like it’s tight fitting providing you stick with your regular size.

The classic fit style T-shirt will show less body shape if you prefer that. If you have a slimmer body you may look a bit lost in this style as it has more room in the body and wider sleeves. This certainly benefits the more chunkier chap. If you like comfort and thickness of weave you can’t go wrong with Fruit of The Loom Ringspun Premium option. A real quality garment that washes at sixty degrees.
Certain classic shaped T-shirts can be worn baggy by slimmer lads. Nakedshirt offer some stylish variations for this. The thinner shirts having less grams per square meter allow the it to hang nicely.

Fruit of the Loom Iconic T-shirts are recommended for lean, slimmer bodies. The sleeves are shorter quite narrow for a stylish fitted look and at 150gsm they’re perfect for a warm day or thin enough to wear under a sweater. The FoTL Iconic tee is also great for DTG printing.  Just don’t try squeezing into your regular size if you have a decent dad bod – you’ll look like the Michelin Man.

For an even more stylish T-shirt the Anvil range is worthy of a look. The Lightweight Long and Lean is a thin, fitted T-shirt with extra length at the back in a drop tail. 100% ringspun cotton for all but the heather grey.
The Anvil Curved Tee offers another modern take on a classic fit T-shirt having a stylish curve on the bottom hem.
The Anvil Featherweight T-shirt is only 110gsm one of the lightest and thinnest T-shirts you’ll find. Ideal for scorching days and wet T-shirt competitions if you’re really proud of your dad bod!

What T-shirt is Best For Me?

Nakedshirt ‘Jack’

Oh, the choice. For such a ubiquitous and simple item of clothing choosing the right T-shirt can be a complicated experience.
So many variables to consider; size, fit, style, price, material, decoration, colour, how it washes, will it shrink?
T-shirts are worn casually, to impress, for work, advertising, uniform, humour and a host of other reasons. It’s generally how the garment is decorated that determines its use.
Teepig offers a huge range of T-shirts that cover pretty much every option.
Size: Adult sizes start at XS and go up to 5XL in some products. Not every style of garment adheres to the same size range so be aware when ordering. You could be a Medium in one T-shirt and a Large in another.
Fashion may be a factor in this too, some like tight fitting T-shirts and choose a size down while others go for the looser fit and go for a size up. Lady fit T-shirts offer
Some styles of T-shirt take this into account and the fit is cut for a perceived look on the wearer. Original or ‘unstated’ fit  is generally meant to be worn not too loose or not too tight. It shouldn’t hug the body and the sleeves shouldn’t be too tight around the upper arms.
Fitted and ‘Eurofit’ style T-shirts are meant to shape to the body’s contours.
Crew neck T-shirts are round and V-neck T-shirts have a point at the front. Some modern styles have a wider neck hole. The brand Bella and Canvas offers these.
Our lowest cost T-shirt is the Fruit of the Loom ‘Valueweight’. 100% cotton original style fit.
Fruit of the Loom’s Super Premium is heavier than the valueweight comprising of more cotton per square metre at 190gm/m2. The Super Premium will also perform after 60 degree washes.
The Fruit of the Loom Sofspun cotton T-shirt is a softer feel T-shirt.
Our best value T-shirt is the Gildan 100% cotton ringspun tee. The fit is slightly tighter but because of the soft feel there is some flex so it is very comfortable to wear and performs well after numerous washes and in the dryer. It prints well and is reasonably priced.
For brand owners looking for something unique the Nakedshirt brand is modern and appeals to those who like street/casual fashions.

Printwear Live 2019

The chaps from Teepig visited the Birmingham N.E.C. this week to have a mosey around the industry’s leading providers at the Printwear Live tradeshow.
We were on the lookout for products of both garments and machinery that can make our service even better. What we found was just that.
Variety of offerings is really going to help us at this early stage of establishment and having a knowledge of what garments and processes are right for any particular order.
We learned what products would be ideal to use for customers looking to establish their own unique brand. For fashion conscious brands the latest trends of garments were on display and available. These include Ralawise’s ‘Build a Brand’ range and BTC Activewear’s ‘SG’ and ‘Nakedshirt’ range.
All coming tagless and to be branded by you, or us, as we’ll do it for you so you can design and market and Teepig will produce.
Perhaps you only want a single T-shirt or small quantity of garments for yourself and your friends. The variety is all there from original, high quality garment manufacturers like Bella & Canvas to your value solutions like Fruit of the Loom and Gildan – both still offering great quality at the best prices. For stag and hen parties, community events and casual workwear Fruit of the Loom and Gildan can’t be beaten for value on customised T-shirts, hoodies and sweaters. They both offer soft feel, ring spun T-shirts in light, regular and heavy gsm.
When it comes to customised bags Bagbase has a great range to offer from school, professional, recreational and outdoor. Beechfield offer a wide range of hats and caps that can be decorated either by sublimation or embroidery with your own custom design or logo.
As we develop you will see more and more variety appear on our ‘design your own’ page.
If there’s something you want and you can’t see it drop us an email on the contact page with your requirements or suggestion and we’ll do what we can to help you get your custom wear.

DTG Printing vs Screen Printing

Direct to garment or DTG is an ideal way of getting your artwork, photo or logo onto clothing.

The main advantage of DTG over screen printing is the ease and low cost of producing few garments with a very high quality print.

Conventional screen printing is a great way of printing quality images onto garments if what is being printed has few colours, bold lines and is relatively simple because the more colours you use the more screens you need. It’s only worthwhile doing if you are producing multiple garments of the same print. DTG on the other hand is a great way to print one-offs or small runs. The preparation is very quick and easy compared to screen printing where each different colour needs to have a screen made. To produce a screen a film needs to be printed, then covered with emulsion, left to dry, then exposed with UV, then washed out, dried again then it’s ready to use. This has to be done for each colour being printed on your garment.

DTG is so much simpler and if you wanted a single one off T-shirt of your design for instance, it’s great value. At just over £15 for a single custom printed T-shirt including postage Teepig.co.uk offers some of the best prices online. There are obviously no screen setup charges, what you pay is what you see on the website.

£15 all in, that’s cheaper than you can get boutique brands in the shop – and it’s your very own design. How cool would it be to wear your own artwork on a T-shirt for only £15? DTG quality is un-compromised. You’ll get a bold, clear print on your garment with impressive image detail.

T-shirts for Community Groups

Screen Printing

In our own town of Portishead there is a new ‘party’ entering the political arena. Although those in the group would probably wince at such a term as party because their political stance is one of removing party politics from local politics. Makes sense. Discussion and challenges with the local authority is good for the community as it surely improves services.
Portishead Independents came to us at Teepig for a run of T-shirts for their group and to offer to their supporters for sale to generate campaign funds. We were able to provide a number of screen printed T-shirts of various sizes at a wholesale price they can sell on for profit.

Are you also involved in a community group that would benefit from having T-shirts with your own design on them? A charity group or political group like the Portishead Independents, perhaps? Contact us here at Teepig.co.uk for a quote or simply use our ‘design your own’ service.
Many choices on offer from, T-shirts, sweaters, hoodies and caps and all in a range of styles and colours.
Choose the ones that would best suit your design.

Having your own design on a T-shirt or sweater and wearing it in your town is a great way of advertising your group to the community. It also helps unify your group which would visibly make you more established, organised and professional.
