New to Work Wear: Safety Vests, Work Vest and Shoulder Bag

Et voliá… as promised, we now have them in stock just for you: our work wear collection is now ready for personalisation. Let’s play it safe and start off with the safety vest in neon-orange and neon-yellow. The vest comes equipped with reflective stripes on the front and back. The vest is super-multi-functional: perfect for construction workers (or those that want to look like one); you can store it in your car for safety reasons; use it for your jog at night; or wear it at party (for some extra attention). Eye-catching safety at your disposal! Put our reflective or neon color flex on it and you will love it even more. It comes in one size which means it is big enough to wear over a hoodie or jacket.

2012: A Year of Sports – and Designers Beware

We are all licking our lips with anticipation of the two main sports events this year. In June, the 14th European Football Championships will be held in Poland and Ukraine, and the Olympic games will be hosted in London. But before you start creating new designs to honour the events, we would like to (again) direct your attention to the legal side of things. It is a bit tricky, so please ensure that your shop does not violate any copyrights.

World Thank You Day 2012

Today is World Thank You Day, a chance to thank the people you don’t say “thank you” to often enough. And we came up with quite some things we would like to thank you for. Some Spreaders came infront of the camera to thank you in behalf of the whole Spreadshirt staff. Thank you all for making Spreadshirt what it is!
Here’s the video:

We are curious to find out what you are thankful for. Comment and let us know!

Wear Trackies with Spreadshirt on 20 Jan and Win!

International Sweatpants Day is one of our favourite holidays, second only to International T-Shirt Day, of course! On 20 January 2012, we will be taking part in the 3rd Annual International Sweatpants Day for the third time. And we want you to join us on this overly-casual Friday. So much so that we are giving away free stuff to those who participate.

How and what can we win?!

Take a photo of yourself wearing trackie bottoms (or whatever name you choose to call them). Strike a funny pose, get some of your friends together, ask your grandmother to join in, or show us your trackie style while at work. Then upload the picture to our Facebook profile. If you are not a member at Facebook, upload your foto elsewhere (e.g. Photobucket, Flickr, tumblr) and post the link below. We’ll gather all of pictures together and get a vote going on Facebook with “Likes”. In addition to fame and glory, the most voted fotos will win vouchers, e.g. to design their personal Spreadshirt trackie bottoms or sporty Hoodie to customise!
Main prize: wins a voucher worth £70
Prize 2-5: wins a voucher worth £50
You can enter your photo from now through 23 January and then we’ll start the voting.

If you’re looking for some sweet trackies to wear on the infamous day, check out our selection of custom trackie bottoms and sweatpants on the Marketplace. We’re looking forward to getting comfortable on the 20th and to seeing you sporting your very own trackies!

One for the US marketplace, one for UK and one for Germany. Those who clicked “I Like” on their favorite designs could also win a shirt with design of the year on it.
So here are the three winners:
