Hey I loved this post. I liked it so much I decided to write about it on our site. I agree with the fact that too many cause t shirt companies forget to prioritize design. I also agree with the 10% to profit comment. Anyway, here is the post. http://www.3clothingco.com/site/t_shirt_causes

Re: print on demand showdown: Zazzle vs. Cafepress – part 3

We took a pretty hard look at both Zazzle and Cafepress before we decided to go with organic cotton and have our shirts printed locally. We saw some of the same issues that you have pointed out. We just couldn't risk the quality or risk losing rights to the designs. If you are just looking at t shirt design as a hobby then I would go with cafepress, but if you are looking to run a profitable business then I would have it printed locally.

This is in response to the comment posted earlier about the inaccuracy of cotton water usage. We at 3 Clothing company have done quite a bit of research into the growing needs of cotton. Yes there is some cotton grown in arid land. However, to produce large amounts of cotton using conventional methods requires large amounts of fertilizer. The more fertilizer that is used, the more water is needed to grow the cotton. This is actually a fact for any plant that uses conventional fertilizers. Here is an article about how an entire sea has been reduced to 10% of it's original size do to the huge water needs to grow conventional cotton. Aral sea Uzbekistan is the second largest producer of conventional cotton in the world. 3 Clothing company produces organic clothing that is Uzbekistan free.

Wow, I had no clue this was possible. As a clothing company, we are constantly trying to keep up with upcoming fashion from the fashion shows. Occasionally we make trade shows and some runway events to keep our eye on the industry. We also try to keep our consumers up to date on what's coming up for the next season. I think we will be adding this concept to our tools.
