Default Worn out effects

I was thinking of giving the shirts a worn out look, but not only through graphic design. I was thinking more like bleaching. Would i have to do that myself or are there places that do that kind of stuff exclusively? Or is it possible to buy blank shirts that are already bleached in certain patterns?

Default Re: Worn out effects

You could look at buying burn out tees: in those some of the fibres are chemically burnt out rather than just bleached, might give you something like what you're after. I think you can buy marbled bleachy shirts, but I can't think of who sells them off the top of my head (Continental, Royal, et al would be the most promising places to start).

You can take the shirts after they're printed (or before) to a wash house and get some wet processing done on them.
