| - This is a long overdue review, but I just wanted to rave about how great Toronto Tees is. As it was my first time ever purchasing a customized t-shirt NOT in bulk, I was curious as to what the process would entail and what the prices would be. A lot of my friends have quirky sense of humours, so I thought a creative present for Christmas this year would be custom t-shirts. I've walked past Toronto Tees several times on Yonge Street, as it's bright display with humorous t-shirts is hard to miss, and decided to give it a try this holiday. My friend and I dropped by so that we could get four custom t-shirts with a logo we had come up with only in our minds (but hadn't drawn) done.
...The verdict for Toronto Tees? 110% worth it. It should be EVERYONE's go-to for a memorable, thoughtful, and unique present that's sure to get a laugh from the
Prices: Really, really affordable! I purchased a custom t-shirt for about $20-25. The more you order, the bigger the discount (I ordered one, so I think it came to about $25). The people working there also very understanding when it comes to working on a budget, so if you're not sure what your t-shirt will come to, feel free to ask them questions and discuss it with them.
Set-up: Toronto Tees is a surprisingly clean and spacious store. One of my favourite things about it is that it contains a tasteful wall gallery of sample t-shirts that have been made before, with different logos and images used; from there, you can choose if you want a similar logo or image (maybe with different words or phrases, etc.), or you can design your own or bring your own image for them to print on a t-shirt for you. There's a big screen in front of the counter facing you, where they will design the logo of the shirt or draw up a sketch of the shirt so that you can see exactly what it'll look like before they print it - and if you'd like to make any changes/suggestions to it, they can accomodate that, too! You can also watch as they print the t-shirts right in front of you -it's a totally transparent process, and I love the relaxed atmosphere of the store (they really don't judge you on what you want on your t-shirt.) The person who helped us, Marvin, even took the time to explain to us what he was doing, and the steps involved in t-shirt printing, as he did it.
Service: HUGE shout out to Marvin* (I think that was his name!), who was really friendly and made our experience a great one! Marvin was totally cool not only with the fact that we didn't have an image of the logo we wanted on our T-shirt, but even asked us to show him pictures of what we had in mind. In front of our very eyes (I'm sounding a bit melodramatic here, but it really was a cool thing to see,) he started to design a logo exactly like the one we had imagined. After asking us for our input, he then helped us to pick out t-shirts that we could have our logo printed on. Seriously, I can't rave enough about how much patience, creativity, and dedication the staff here have - Marvin was hilarious, very accomodating, and more than willing to go above and beyond to help us to create the perfect t-shirt. I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to fonts, so to see Marvin design a logo with the exact font I had had in mine, and to recreate an image that I showed him from the internet, was amazing. Thanks, Marvin - because of you, we'll definitely be coming back to order more t-shirts! Ask for him the next time you're at the store.
Product: The t-shirts at Toronto Tees are a great quality. The stores I usually shop at for t-shirts include Aritzia (on the pricier side,) and Forever 21/H&M when I'm not as willing to splurge. I can say that Toronto Tees is a great in-between - their t-shirts don't fray, they hold up well, and they stay true to their size. They also have a nice, diverse selection of colours and sizes!
The final results: Our T-shirts looked FABULOUS. The four of my friends and I can't stop wearing them, and we get compliments all the time on where we got the t-shirts. It feels cool to say that it was a custom order, and made an awesome present. I'll definitely be coming back. This place is my new gifting go-to!
