Editor’s Note: This blog was originally published in 2020 and has been updated with the latest research and T-shirt giveaways.
T-shirt giveaways have long been one of the most popular promotional items—and with good reason. They create a win for everyone. Recipients get a comfortable, practical shirt that lets them wear a brand they love, while organizations get an average of 3,400 impressions per shirt (PDF).
T-shirt giveaways provide wins in other ways too. With a variety of price points and styles to choose from, you can select a T-shirt that reflects your brand, makes your logo pop and fits your marketing budget with just a few clicks.
We have several filters on our T-shirt page to help you narrow down your selection. Sort by fit, fabric and/or style to find the perfect match for your promotion. For popular classic tees, filter by Basic T-Shirts under the Style menu. Choose Moisture Wicking under Fabric or Athletic under Style for a performance shirt. And to save yourself time when hunting for shirts in the size you want, select from Men’s, Women’s, Unisex or Youth from the Fit menu.
