Zazzle was kind enough to hook us up with a killer coupon code, so we give their shirt building tools a spin. Glad we did. I’ve used Zazzle in the past but it’s been a while. Their shirt creation tools are easy to use, whether you’re adding your own design to a shirt, or building one on the fly. In our case, we uploaded a PNG with our Proud Runner slogan. Upload was a snap and tweaking the size and position of the artwork was very easy.
We chose a standard American Apparel tee, one our favorites. Our mens medium fits great, and as with most AA stuff, sizes run on the slim size. Print quality is very good.
One of the things I like about Zazzle is that as a budding shirt designer it provides you a way to do short run product tests. Print a couple for your buddies and check out how a design actually looks on a shirt – is it too big, too small, does it read well from a distance, etc. Those type of things are hard to get a handle on until you actually see a printed product. It’s also a great way to test various shirt manufacturers and styles before committing to one for a full screen printing run. Give ‘em a spin.
