5 Reasons to Give a Custom Tee Instead of a Card

Say it, wear it, keep it.

Let’s be real: greeting cards are cute, but they end up in a drawer, or the recycling bin, within a week. A custom T-shirt? That sticks around.

Next time you're tempted to grab a $7 card from the checkout line, consider this: you could put that message on a shirt instead.

Here’s why custom tees > greeting cards, every time:

1. It Says What a Card Would — But Better

You can still write something sweet, funny, or heartfelt… but instead of reading it once, they’ll wear it. Whether it’s an inside joke, a favorite quote, or a phrase only you two understand, a T-shirt makes the message live on.

Examples:

• “Still not over your party in 2018”

• “World’s Okayest Friend”

• “Hot Girl With Great Boundaries”

2. It’s a Card and a Gift in One

A custom tee is a message and a present rolled into one. You don’t need to pair it with anything. It’s meaningful, wearable, and way more fun than a piece of folded paper with glitter on it.

 3. It’s Personal — Like, Really Personal

Custom means you thought about it. You didn’t just pull something off a rack,  you created it for them. That kind of intention hits harder than any Hallmark pun ever could.

4. It Won’t Get Thrown Out

Cards get saved for a week (if you’re lucky). A shirt lives in their closet. It might even become their go-to tee. And every time they wear it, they’ll think of you.

5. It Makes for Better Photos

Let’s be honest: a card doesn’t show up in the group pics. A shirt? That’s main character behavior. Whether it’s for a birthday, girls’ trip, or just-for-fun moment, a custom tee shows up, stands out, and looks damn good doing it.

Say it, wear it, keep it.
Next time you want to send a message, print it instead.
