If you’re a customer looking to fill up your wardrobe with comfortable t-shirts sporting unique designs created by artists from all over the world, Threadless is the website for you. But even if you’re an aspiring entrepreneur looking to make some profits in the t-shirt design business, this website won’t let you down. While you need to be upvoted by the artist community supporting this website to join the marketplace, Threadless makes up for this by offering irresistible artwork that the designers connected with it supply, alongside innovative design competitions that allow you to earn money through designing unique shirts. This website can be the best fit for buyers and sellers, as over a thousand reviews testify to Threadless’ product quality and customer service, allocating it a 4.4/5 star rating.

8. Spreadshirt

Spreadshirt offers you a typical t-shirt designing, printing, and selling service, but their edge lies in the fact that they provide an easy-to-use customizer for the t-shirts and a collection of over a hundred different products for any t-shirt printing and design needs you might have. This website also happens to be affiliated with Shopify (NYSE: SHOP) and can be found on the Shopify App Store. Creators using this website will receive a great deal of exposure as far as the customer base is concerned, much like that provided by Merch By Amazon.com, Inc (NASDAQ: AMZN). They also have an archive of popular designs you can go through for your wardrobe or inspiration, adding to their strengths.

7. CafePress

Much like Teespring above, CafePress is a pretty good bet for anyone looking to set up a customizable online store to sell t-shirts. This website is also free to use and has the same rules and restrictions as Teespring, except their t-shirt base price is higher, at $14.95, and they issue your earnings within 60 days of the month of earning. Sounds rough, doesn’t it? But they make up for it by being a website offering stellar t-shirts and policies vowing to ensure they consistently satisfy their customers. If they fail to do so, they make up for it with their return and exchange policy, even for personalized orders. The company offers regular deals and discounts on its products and is a budding e-commerce zone for both buyers and sellers alike.

This website is thus ranked seventh on the list of the best t-shirt design websites. As demand for creative t-shirts continues to grow on ecommerce platforms like Shopify (NYSE: SHOP), Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ: AMZN), Alibaba Group Holding Ltd – ADR (NYSE: BABA), eBay Inc (NASDAQ: EBAY) and JD.com Inc (NASDAQ: JD), websites like CafePress will see an increased demand in the future.

6. Merch by Amazon, Owned by Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN)

If you remember my monologue on e-commerce giants above, you’ll probably be excited to see this name down here. Merch by Amazon is a subsidiary of the gigantic Amazon.com, Inc (NASDAQ: AMZN) itself. Thus, it offers prospective t-shirt selling entrepreneurs broad exposure to millions of customers worldwide by presenting their designed shirts as Amazon products. With no investment upfront, this website becomes tempting for anyone looking at different options to set up their new online business. Working with Merch by Amazon.com, Inc (NASDAQ: AMZN) is simple: you have to upload your designs and set a list price, and the company will take care of printing the sold designs and shipping them out with Prime. Just that much work, and you will be able to earn from your new business, alongside monthly royalties from Amazon. The only real downside? You need to apply to work with the company and wait until you’re invited, which may take several weeks to months. So while this website certainly offers excellent printing, delivery, and customer handling services, getting in is the unreliable part.

5. Teespring

This website is one that you should keep an eye out for, especially if you’re a prospective t-shirt designing entrepreneur instead of just a customer. Teespring allows you to design all sorts of merchandise however you want, and their creators receive extra attention and exposure on their website through their “Featured Creators” section. The website is easy to navigate as well. Creators are somewhat bound as a base price of $10.57 is set for each t-shirt and is deducted from the creators’ sale price. However, there are some significant pros for prospective entrepreneurs interested in using Teespring’s state-of-the-art design and printing facilities. For instance, payments will reach them within 1-2 business days, the website itself is free to use, and the more you sell on it, the lower the base price of your product gets.

4. UberPrints

If you’re looking for product diversity so that all sorts of customers can be satisfied instead of just one kind, then UberPrints is one of your best options. They offer specialized designs and options for men, women, and children, proving that everyone needs a few good t-shirts in their wardrobe and allowing you to bring more diversity to your t-shirt design enterprise. Much like Designhill’s t-shirt maker tool, UberPrints offers its customers a Design Studio for creating their t-shirts. They provide original clip art, fonts, and the option to upload images. The versatility and creativity of the Design Studio are a little restricted but still yield satisfying results. Moreover, they make up for the restrictive design tool by offering customers traditional screen printing and digital printing on their shirts. Thousands of reviews have allowed the company to achieve a 4.6/5 star rating, showing customer satisfaction.

3. Real Thread

Real Thread’s website’s bright colors pull you in instantly, which is a huge part of its appeal. Not only does it look custom, but it feels custom from the moment you start to explore. On the homepage, the live chat feature boosts conversions and keeps people on the website. And, as a long-from type of homepage, it keeps scrollers satisfied, giving them all of the information they need right away without them needing to try their luck at the navigation bar. Luckily, the navigation bar on Real Thread’s site is also intelligent, offering links to “What We Do,” “Resources,” “Fulfillment” and “Products.” But, most importantly, the button they really want customers to click on (“Get Started”) is bold and bright pink, featured twice on the homepage above the fold.

2. Rush Order Tees

The first thing you’ll see on their website is a header announcing that they have 500,000+ customers across the US, with a satisfaction rate of 99.7%. The customer reviews on their website are overwhelmingly positive, with the company receiving a whopping 4.9/5 stars for their seemingly outstanding customer service and products. Often, you’ll see reviews praising product quality online, but not much about the service and experience of the customer in dealing with the company itself, but one glance at the reviews here, and you’ll see that that is not the case with Rush Order Tees. The customers have left comments claiming their delivery was never late, leading to many repeat orders. Most importantly, the website’s user interface is accommodating. There are tips spread throughout to help customers design their t-shirt, and the designing process offers a significant degree of autonomy to the customer. The only thing they seem to be lacking is the exposure to competition and inspiration provided by Designhill above.

Designhill will never leave you feeling as though you’re missing something. With 24/7 customer service and support, and a collection of 70,000+ t-shirt designers, it allows you to join the competition and learn from it. Their website features designs created by their team in the past, and this can serve as inspiration or even as the designs that will get your business up and running before you know it. Their customized t-shirt maker tool makes it easy for even beginners to create professional t-shirt designs.

This asset can give your wardrobe and your business a jumpstart. With 100,000+ satisfied customers and tens of thousands of reviews posted on their website, you can rest assured about their quality and service too. The company has a 4.93/5 star rating online, with customers commenting on the ease of designing a stylish t-shirt and the fast delivery, stellar quality, and exposure to numerous eye-catching designs on their website adding to their experience.
