Questions about getting T-shirts made

[jndietz]

So we are about to get some t-shirts made, but I wanted to entertain this question to you guys:

How many of each size do you guys typically get? I figure I am going to sell more mediums than anything for male shirts, and probably more smalls for girl shirts.

What do you guys think?

depends on your fan base...

I don't know how big your fan base is. But if you're getting like 30 shirts made up and know who may buy them. Be selective and try and estimate how many fat skinny and tall and small people there are. Good luck, I've always been too scared to buy shirts. Eric

Large - fit most any guy and make good nighties for the women....

Man. Shirts are such a money pit.

You can somewhat predict your distribution of shirts by your genre. If you play metal, don't skimp on the larges. If you play something that appeals to hyper teens (i.e. emo, pop punk, etc.), you'll need more smalls. (When my band did shirts, we were almost out of smalls by the time the band members and their girlfriends got them.)
