i got a pretty nice plain blue one in the mail today. do you wear ones with designs? most of mine are skateboard brands. i've been collecting neetbux and it pays really well, so i've been thinking about using some money to get my printer & t shirt press going again to make t shirts for myself and start a shitty clothing label. i don't know what the cool kids wear these days.

cant tell you what the cool kids wear. the nerds from my knitting circle wear these hip retro gaming/comic/movie/tv show fan shirts. rick & morty, etc. some even have regular shippings of surprise shirts. mostly abbrevations and crossovers of those branded themes. like darth vaders "i want you" uncle sam crossover.
big market, but hard to compete with i guess and of course if you wanted to do it by the book lots of licensing involved.
the boss son student wears a lot of print-shop stuff, like quotes and random lines that he and his math co-eds use.
this kind of stuff always seem to have a niche existence. especially the graduating stuff. havent seen many but maybe that expands with the hash tag culture.
on telly i saw people are willing to pay crazy amounts of money for old original band shirts from the 80s now. kind of a collectors madness.
i still dig my nba/team shirts, but most of my life i have been wearing plain or the occasional generic department store fake vintage brand desings. the fit is more important to me now. you know show my ceps, make my back seem broad instead of hunched.
with small capacity it might be smart to print out of stock brands. or customized art. are you fast at vectorizing or finding vector art?
the last shirt i got printed was the old seattle supersonics logo on a green tee. made the vectors myself. since the team moved to oklahoma i havent seen anyone re-print.
if you wanted to design for yourself, what would you have in mind? most of the time good things happen from doing what you really like.

come to think of it i would really like to have shirts that have colored or partially colored shoulder and sleeves. just stripes and geometrical stuff as it was common in the 70s 80s. they look fly to me and divert attention from the belly but brings it towards arms & shoulders instead.

for any abstract pictures its a must to have them go all around the shirt.
its worth to think about graffitti too.

really would like to have a press myself and thought about making stencils with a cutter knife to use with acryl paint numerous times, but never had any great ideas for cool taglines or fake brands like ebola cola.

it's also winter and layering, you know, i always just want a base reference shirt and build up from there. i have some long-sleeve shirts, but kind of a mosh there -- half "it's not thermally the right time for this" and half "even if it were i'd rather preserve this shirt for when i'm not just klanging about at home"
