The first process is usually selection of fabrics. But you can also select your T-Shirt type first. Certain fabrics are good for certain types of t-shirt while others are not. For example if you are looking for a round necks, smooth material like single jerseys are normally the better choice than pique material. Start with the basic types, which could either be a collared or a non-collared t-shirt.

Round Neck / V Neck (Non-collared)

So much for the basics, and now for the patterns. You can have a basic design which is just a single color design or a "cut & sew" design. A "cut & sew" design is just different patterns are cut, and sew together to form a shirt. The "cut & sew" designs are really up to your creativity, and the skill of the manufacturer to produce. Those that have high experience and skills can produce the most outrages designs. Do note, the harder or longer to sew the more expensive it is. Fortunately, we have a t-shirt configurator with about 25 cut & sew templates to help you with your design. Use the configurator to do on the spot mock ups on pattern and color combination to suit your taste.

Once you have made a decision on what you want, the best way to communicate with the manufacturer is to send him a picture or at least a sketch. Although "Raglan Polo" or "Huey Round Neck CLP0003" may work, a picture in this case, is really worth more than a thousand words.
