|  Re: The 5 best ways to market t-shirts
I wrote up a list of 65 t-shirt blogs a while back that I think might be helpful to this discussion.
I've looked through the rules and still can't decide if I can post the link or not so instead I'll just copy-and-paste the list, it's pretty long but I think it keeps me on the correct side of the mods. I've cut out the blogs that are corporate (which you wouldn't be able to market to), the ones which haven't been updated for ages (if no ones writing them you won't get posted there), and my own (to comply with the rules). - Addicteed - Streetwear-style designs rule the roost here.
