Men's Regular Fit T-Shirt

If you’re a fashion visionary, then you’ve come to the right place. Our men's custom regular fit t-shirt allows you to create unique artwork and designs that you’ll love to wear. Kickstart your clothing collection with a staple t-shirt. Instead of being restricted to one print area, feel free to extend your design beyond the chest area and print your designs separately on the front, back, sleeves, neck rib, with an option to customize a label. With a number of high-quality jersey fabrics to choose from which feature excellent print details, you’ll love the loose, drapey flow of this tee. Choose between cool and classic Bounce Cotton Jersey, high-quality Supima Cotton Candy Jersey, eco-friendly Tencel Cotton Jersey, or our Lifestyle Recycled Poly Jersey made from 100% post-consumer polyester. Once you've finished selecting all the available options, our in-house team will make them from our exclusive t-shirt template. Each panel is printed individually and then sewn together by hand in our studio.

Sizing For Hemming And Shrinkage

We have a full Cut & Sew service here at Contrado, and are able to hem your fabric prints for a small additional charge. We create a small one- or two-fold hem that typically uses 0.2" to 0.75" (5-20mm) of material, depending on the thickness of the fabric. So, for example, if you want a finished piece of fabric that measures 39.37" x 39.37", you will need to order a size of 39.96" x 39.96" to allow for the hem (on top of that please also allow for shrinkage of min 2%). The thicker the fabric, the bigger the hem will be. You can choose to have your prints hemmed with either Black or White thread. On our silk and other light woven fabrics, one hemmed edge will be straight (vertically down the roll) and the other will be slightly rippled. The hemming material allowances are as follows and you need to make your print bigger to accommodate the hem:

• Light Fabrics (0.59oz-2.95oz): For silks and other light fabrics, we use 0.24" - 0.32" / 6mm-8mm in the hem (2 fold), so overall width/height will be minus 0.48"-0.56""/ 12-16mm
• Medium Fabrics (2.98oz-5.90oz): For medium-weight fabrics that fray, we use 0.5 - 0.75" / 15-20mm in the hem (2 fold) so overall width/height will be minus 1.4" - 1.6" / 35-40mm
• Stiff/Heavy/No-fray fabrics: we use 0.5 - 0.75" / 15-20mm in the hem (1 fold) so overall width/height will be minus 1.5" / 35-40mm

All of these measurements are approximate and can vary. Including with shrinkage, it can mean a fairly significant difference to ordered dimensions, so please plan your print accordingly. Depending on how open the weave is, our fabric can shrink anywhere from 2% to 8% with the average being 2.5%.

How Would you Like the Edge?

• As it comes. We cut around your image, leaving a simply scissor cut, perhaps uneven white fabric border. 
• Hem with thread. We can hem your fabric with a choice of black or white thread. Please allow 1-2 days additional production time. See below for information on how hemming affects the size of your print. We offer an overlock hem, as well as a folded hem (one or two fold depending on the fabric) however not all fabrics are suited to both hem types. If you can see both options, it means both are suitable, and you will be able to choose whichever you prefer. 
• Cut on the line. We will cut neatly on the edge of your design. This means that if you have a border around your design we will cut around that border, if your design takes the whole space of the fabric, then we will neatly cut around the edge of that image. Please be aware, when we cut along the line, we have to cut against the grain of the fabric. This is the standard procedure for fabric cutting. This means that with some fabrics, for example, Georgette and Mulmul, which have a slight wave in them, some fraying will occur. This is unavoidable, as the cut follows the grain of the textile. 

All of our fabrics are cut manually by hand, with the utmost care and attention. If your fabric has a slightly uneven look on the edges or a touch of fraying, this does not indicate a flaw in the textile. It is not always possible to achieve a perfectly straight cut with certain fabrics, so please do bare this in mind when it comes to your design. If you have any queries or would like to know about our cutting methods in more detail, please get in touch and we will be more than happy to discuss them with you.

Please note: As we make everything by hand, all sizes may vary slightly.

Do you have a fast turnaround time?

If you need customized clothing fast, then you have come to the right place. At Contrado, we pride ourselves on our fast turnaround time. We can usually start production the day we receive a design, with our print and sewing team working together to make your t-shirt quickly, carefully, and efficiently. Turn around time is usually about 48 hours with express delivery available.

What is the regular fit like?

The regular fit is designed to give you that classic t-shirt shape. It's a straight cut without being boxy so that it's still flattering. Alternatively, you can choose slim fit, which is more fitted to the body.

Which parts of the t-shirt can I personalize?

You can design several areas of this t-shirt which will be sewn together to create the final product. You can personalize up to 6 areas of this top: the front, back, left sleeve, right sleeve, neck rib and you can also add your own label, which is sewn into the back of the neck. This is ideal for brands, logos or just adding a special message.
