Default white shirts or colored?

hello, again. i have 6 designs that i have spent alot of time and money developing. i use colored gildan t shirts and anywhere from 2 to 5 colors. i have not begun to market them yet with the exception of consignment in a local store. the designs are funny and feel confident they will sell. my question is should i re do everything to be put on a white shirt. cost is lower and the design sells the shirt.Does white sell better or worst than other colors? some people will be dissapointed at lack of choice but im not convinced it will prevent them from buying a unique shirt for 19.99 dollars. i appreaciate your input. thaks bill

I sell colors 10 to 1 against white in my particular niche. What is your product closest too? What does the closest thing to what you have created sell by the way of colors?

i can use colored shirts but i thought the cost savings would out way the loss of sales do to lack of color. if you sell 10 to 1 colored and that is true of most people i will definatly forget about the white. i didn't know if mentally people are drawn to bright colors on white or if anything but white is the way to go. i dont want to offer color choices for a single shirt. whatever i choose--thats it. thanks for your reply. bill

Colored shirts a in style right now. I would start with colors then move to white as sales pick up.

In my experience colors always sell better and should only save you .5 dollars at most printers.
