T-shirts… Perfect Mobile Billboards
T-Shirts are one of the most long-term advertisements you can use. This is seen over and over again, in the incredible number of ads on free t-shirts, athletic jerseys, and event shirts. Loads of us wear t-shirts every day, whether or not they have ads on them. One of the most classic examples of t-shirts as advertising can be seen in simple “Adidas” or “Reebok” tees. These shirts are cool, and have been in style for years and years. They’re simply ads for their respective companies, but fashionable ads. This type of advertising applies to any brand or logo fashionable enough to be purchased. If people don’t want to buy your shirt though, they’ll still wear it- provided you give it away.
Recent trends simply reinforce T-Shirts usefulness for advertising. There is a large group of people who like to wear “Affliction” and “TapOut” shirts. This trend came out of UFC fighters wearing the shirts after fights, and has exploded across the country in the last few years. While your company or event is very unlikely to see an explosion of popularity like this trend, you will almost certainly see some exposure. If you think back to even just the last week, you’ve probably stood in lines behind people with promotional shirts, seen them anywhere you shop, and maybe even worn one yourself.
T-Shirts are also tremendously popular as swag at conferences. The nicer the logo and conference, the better for you. Depending on the conference, people will wear them during the event, and will almost always find occasion to wear them after.
