Short sleeve t-shirts are a wardrobe essential – casual, comfortable, and perfect for any occasion. At Kavy’s Customs, we take this everyday staple to the next level by offering custom short sleeve t-shirts that you can design yourself. Whether you’re outfitting your team with branded short sleeve work shirts or creating a one-of-a-kind tee for personal wear, our collection has something for everyone. Enjoy vibrant colors, quality fabrics, and the freedom to customize each shirt to reflect your style.

Eco-Friendly and Standard Options
Kavy’s Customs is proud to offer both eco-friendly and standard short sleeve t-shirt options to suit your needs. Our eco-friendly tees are made from sustainable materials like organic cotton or recycled polyester, giving you a sustainable choice without compromising on comfort or quality. For example, our Adidas Sport T-Shirt is crafted with recycled polyester, delivering moisture-wicking performance while reducing environmental impact. Choosing an eco-friendly t-shirt means you’ll enjoy benefits like reduced water usage and lower environmental footprint, all while wearing a high-quality shirt. Of course, we also carry standard options – classic cotton and poly-cotton shirts that are tried-and-true favorites for their softness, durability, and value. No matter which route you choose, eco-friendly or standard, you’ll get a comfortable short sleeve tee that’s perfect for customization.
Short Sleeve T-Shirts for Workwear
When it comes to work uniforms and company apparel, short sleeve work shirts strike the perfect balance between comfort and professionalism. Businesses love using custom short sleeve t-shirts as part of their workwear because these shirts keep employees cool and comfortable, especially in warm environments or active jobs. A breathable cotton or performance blend tee with your company logo can unify your team’s look while allowing easy movement and layering. Our collection includes high-visibility colors and durable fabrics ideal for job sites, as well as premium cotton options for a polished casual office look. Short sleeve work shirts from Kavy’s Customs are designed to handle the daily grind – they’re easy to wash, hold up well over time, and maintain a sharp appearance so your team can represent your brand with pride.
Short Sleeve T-Shirts for Personal & Casual Use
Custom short sleeve t-shirts aren’t just for the workplace – they’re also perfect for personal, casual wear. Designing your own tee gives you a fun way to express your personality or celebrate an event. Planning a family reunion, charity run, or school function? Short sleeve t-shirts make excellent keepsakes and group apparel for all ages. For everyday fashion, a custom tee lets you showcase your favorite artwork, a catchy phrase, or support for a cause in a stylish, comfortable way. You’ll love the versatility of these shirts: wear them on a sunny weekend outing, at the gym, or just relaxing at home. With soft fabrics and a range of fits (from standard unisex cuts to women’s relaxed fit), our short sleeve t-shirts ensure you look and feel great in any casual setting. They’re the go-to choice for personalized casual wear that’s uniquely you.
Materials: Cotton, Polyester & Performance Blends
Choosing the right material is key to getting the perfect t-shirt for your needs. We offer customizable cotton t-shirts, polyester athletic tees, and various performance blends, each with its own advantages:
-
100% Cotton: Cotton is a natural fiber beloved for its softness and breathability. A cotton tee feels gentle on the skin and is ideal for everyday wear, making it a popular choice for those who prioritize comfort. Our cotton shirts (including ringspun and combed cotton options like the Comfort Colors Heavyweight Ring Spun Tee) are great for vibrant printing and work well for both casual and work settings. Pros: Soft, breathable, hypoallergenic, easy to print on. Cons: May shrink slightly in the wash, can wrinkle, and absorbs moisture (taking a bit longer to dry).
-
100% Polyester: Polyester is a synthetic fabric known for its durability and performance qualities. Many of our short sleeve performance t-shirts (such as the Adidas Sport T-Shirt) use polyester to provide moisture-wicking, quick-drying benefits – perfect for sports, workouts, or jobs that cause you to break a sweat. Polyester tees are lightweight, resist shrinking or fading, and hold their shape well . Pros: Lightweight, quick-drying (dri-fit), wrinkle-resistant, won’t shrink. Cons: Less breathable than cotton, may have a silkier or slightly slick feel, and can retain odors if not properly cared for. (Note: We often use recycled polyester in our eco-friendly performance shirts, so you get the same benefits with a greener footprint.)
-
Blends (50/50 & Tri-Blends): Blended fabric t-shirts give you the best of both worlds. A 50/50 poly-cotton blend (like our Jerzees Dri-Power 50/50 T-Shirt) offers the softness of cotton combined with the strength and quick-dry ability of polyester. This means the shirt is comfortable yet less prone to heavy shrinking and dries faster than pure cotton – a great all-around choice for work or play. Tri-blends (typically cotton, polyester, and rayon) add an extra element: rayon gives a super-soft touch and a stylish drape. Tri-blend shirts are favorites for fashion tees and those who love a luxuriously soft feel. Pros: Soft like cotton, slightly stretchy, lower shrinkage, and often a trendy “vintage” feel. Cons: Blends can be a bit more expensive and the fabric is sometimes thinner than pure cotton, but they’re still durable and long-lasting .
No matter which material you choose, all our shirts are high-quality and fully customizable. If you’re unsure, cotton is a safe bet for general use, polyester is excellent for athletic or outdoor needs, and blends are ideal for a premium feel. And don’t forget, we also offer USA-made options like the Bayside Union-Made T-Shirt for those who value American-made quality and supporting local manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: Can I really order just one custom short sleeve t-shirt, or is there a minimum?
A: Yes, you can absolutely order just one! At Kavy’s Customs, we believe in making custom apparel accessible to everyone, so there is no minimum order requirement. Whether you want a single shirt as a gift or dozens for a company event, we’ve got you covered. Order 1, 5, or 500 – you’ll get the same attention to quality and detail on every shirt.
Q2: What material should I choose for my short sleeve t-shirt?
A: It depends on your needs and preferences. If you want a classic everyday tee, 100% cotton is soft and breathable – a great choice for comfort. For athletic or work shirts, polyester or performance blends might be better since they wick moisture and dry quickly. Blended fabrics (like 50/50 cotton-poly) offer a mix of comfort and durability. All the materials we offer are high quality, so you really can’t go wrong – but think about how you’ll use the shirt. For example, choose cotton for casual wear, and choose a moisture-wicking polyester or blend for sports and outdoor activities.
Q3: Are there eco-friendly short sleeve t-shirt options available?
A: Yes! We carry several eco-friendly t-shirts in our short sleeve collection. These include shirts made from organic cotton and those made with recycled materials. For instance, our Adidas Sport T-Shirt uses recycled polyester, and some of our cotton shirts are made with sustainable manufacturing practices. When browsing our products, look for labels like “Eco-Friendly” – these indicate a shirt that has environmentally friendly qualities. You can enjoy the same comfort and quality, with the added benefit of supporting sustainable apparel.
Q4: How do I use the Custom Creator to design my shirt?
A: Using the Custom Creator is easy and intuitive. First, choose the short sleeve t-shirt you want to customize and click the “Customize” button on the product page. This will open our design studio.

You can also pick print colors, adjust fonts for text, and see everything in real time on the mock-up. If you run into any questions while designing, our customer support is here to help.
