Meet the New Real Thread T-Shirt Builder

Finding the perfect t-shirt just got easier (and more fun) than ever before.

We're thrilled to bring to you a brand new t-shirt builder from Real Thread. We have been working on this project for months with the hope of making for you the easiest, most delightful t-shirt ordering experience in the world. Here's a link to the new builder. Before you head over, be sure to check out a rundown of the new features.

Best Sellers, New Arrivals, and All Products

Starting up top, we've introduced three new tabs to make your browsing easy: Best Sellers, New Arrivals, and All Products.

All Products

This tab is where you'll find all of the products we have images for, meaning: these are all of the products we've been able to get our hands on and take in-house photography. We prefer to shoot all products in-house to ensure fit and color accuracy.

Important to clarify here: this is not all of the products we can print on, just some of our most popular. If you don't see the garment you're looking for, let us know. Odds are, we can print or embroider on it.

Best Sellers

This tab is exactly what it sounds like: the most popular products we print on at Real Thread. The perfect launching point for anyone who's new to custom t-shirts and is looking for a good product to start on.

New Arrivals

Be sure to stay tuned to new arrivals, because we'll be adding new products to our site on a regular basis. Apparel manufacturers are constantly adding to their product offering and we want to make sure you're in the know on the latest and greatest.

Advanced Filtering Options

We heard a lot of feedback on our old site about not being able to filter through shirts based on anything other than the shirt style. We know all there is to know about these specific shirts, but not everyone does, so we made it so you'll be able to filter by options like product type, color, body type, material, or brand.

Collections ✨

One filter we're particularly excited about is our curated Collections section. Here, you'll be able to browse more niche products families:

👌  Staff Picks
♻️  Sustainable
🇺🇸  Made in the USA

Delivery Speed 🚚

A new feature we added to the order process is the ability to filter based on our delivery speed. For this filter, there are three options to choose from:

  1. Standard (2-week turnaround)
  2. Rush (1-week turnaround)
  3. Lightning (2-day turnaround)

Products that are lightning eligible will have a small red lightning icon next to the style number, making them easy to identify for orders you need in a hurry.

Search Bar 🧐

We also added a search bar up top, so if you know exactly which product you'd like to find, simply type it in to find it.

Product Details

At first glance, it's almost impossible to tell t-shirts apart. We added reviews, a fit guide, and female photos to ensure everyone will be able to find their perfect fit.

Reviews ✍

Read unfiltered product reviews from our customers about their experience with each garment.

Fit Guide 📐

Take the guessing game out of how a shirt will fit with our new Fit Guide. See how each garment fits on a variety of different body types so you can make a call on what best fits you.

Female Photos 🙋

Ordering women's t-shirts is notoriously tricky, and t-shirt manufacturers don't do much to help. So, we took matters into our own hands and added female photos for our more popular styles.

Toggle between views to get a quick look at how you can expect a particular shirt to fit on both a male and female body.

Start Your Order

Go test our new t-shirt builder for yourself. And let us know if you have any feedback. We'd love to hear what we can improve as we set out to give you the most delightful order experience in the world.
