Threadless

By Ashley, Friday, 07 November 2008

You’ve probably noticed the rise of graphic tees over the past few years. From online stores, to major fashion labels, to the local Wal-Mart, it seems like we're inundated with t-shirts that make a statement, either literally or artistically. As a result, graphic tees have all but lost their novelty. But there's one place you're sure to find something fresh.

Before the Christmas rush begins, I'd suggest checking out Threadless.com. Although I can’t take full credit (Scott introduced me to the site), I am now a true fan. Not only does the site encourage innovative design (which everyone can appreciate), but it also encourages individuality.

Here’s how it works: Anyone can submit a t-shirt design, which is then posted on the site where it is voted on by visitors. Based on that feedback, Threadless selects a number of designs which are produced and sold on the site! The Threadless approach leverages community to encourage creativity and ensure quality.

I’m considering adding this ‘Skip Dessert’ shirt to my Shopping Cart. Which shirt is your favorite?
