How To Decorate On-Trend Tees for Spring
A new season is here, which means new apparel decoration trends are popping up, just like the spring flowers. Provide your clients with on-trend branding this season by taking advantage of two of our favorite timely decoration ideas that pair exceptionally with popular styles from Next Level Apparel (asi/73867).
Neons & Bold Hues
As the winter blues fade away, so does the desire for dark, moody imprints. Recommend your clients give a jolt of energy to their branded apparel by opting for bright and bold neon graphics colors. Not only will neon decoration attract attention and get noticed, it will also deliver a memorable look and feel that will stand out from the sea of dark or neutral tones that were popular last season.
NLA Spring T-Shirt Selections:
This silky soft T-shirt offers wearers a great drape, stretch and recovery for that easy breezy spring style they’re looking for. The popular color of “Turquoise” always makes a great canvas for any client’s spring break or summer vacation-minded promotional messages and graphics.
- Unisex Cotton T-Shirt (3600)
Meet end-users’ new favorite T-shirt. This cotton tee comes in a wide range of color options, so it’ll be easy to find the right shade to really make neon imprints pop. This garment is also made with 100% combed ring-spun cotton which means less impurities in the fabric and more of a smooth printing surface and soft feel.
NLA Insider Tip: Combed Ring-Spun Cotton vs. Heirloom Cotton
Have you encountered the phrase “heirloom” cotton before? While sometimes misunderstood to be an indication of cotton quality, this term actually refers to a weaving technique and does not correlate with the quality of the garment. When seeking premium cotton with as little impurities as possible, keep an eye out for styles that are made with “combed ring-spun cotton” instead.
Retro-Inspired Pastels
Does any color scheme scream “spring” more than pastels? We think not. For the most appealing promo apparel possible, make sure you present your clients styles that come in pleasing pastel fabrics so you can bring that light and dreamy aesthetic to more than just their imprints. NLA carries a wide variety of shirts that pair wonderfully with this look.
NLA Spring T-Shirt Selections:
- Women's CVC Relaxed T-Shirt (6600)
With a relaxed fit and gentle contouring, this updated women’s style will make a great addition to your spring apparel assortment. Recommend your pastel-loving clients add complementary color imprints such as light orange or pink to the shade “Heather Columbia Blue” for that soft and dreamy aesthetic that’s all the rage this spring. - Women's Festival Crop Top (5080)
Crops are an absolute must-sell for springtime promotions. Let clients know this NLA option features a modest crop length that isn’t too short or too long – it’s just right. We love the shade “Smoked Paprika” to pair with pastel branding to evoke the feelings of spring.
- Women's Festival Scoop Neck T-Shirt (5030)
Made from NLA’s founding fabric, this scoop neck – like the rest of the Festival Collection – is versatile to work with many popular decoration methods, including sublimation printing. Let clients know that complex pastel imprints are possible, thanks to this premium full-color technique. As for shirt colors, the purple shade “Shiraz” is perfect for the spring season. - Unisex Festival T-Shirt (6200)
Looking for a spring tee with mass appeal that’s a bit more saturated? This unisex style is it. The versatile “Royal” colorway is a gorgeous vintage blue that will complement artwork in a variety of pastel or mid-tone shades.
