A good staff T-shirt does two jobs at once. Your team looks like one team, and every customer who sees it remembers your name. Whether you run an office, a restaurant, a café or a growing brand in Lahore, this guide covers what to decide before you order branded T-shirts: the shirt, the print, where the logo goes, quantities, sizes and how ordering actually works.
Who orders branded T-shirts, and why
- Corporate offices: team T-shirts for Fridays, launches, trainings, annual dinners and company sports days. A T-shirt is a relaxed alternative to a formal uniform and still keeps everyone on brand.
- Restaurants and cafés: kitchen, counter and delivery staff. A logo T-shirt is easy to wash, easy to replace and makes your team instantly recognisable on the floor.
- Clothing and lifestyle brands: merch drops, launch giveaways and your first printed collection. See our merch T-shirts guide.
- Events and campaigns: marathons, concerts, college societies and brand activations where everyone needs the same shirt on the same day. See our event and campaign T-shirts guide.
Step 1: Choose the T-shirt
You have two routes. Ready-stock T-shirts are quicker to start with; custom-made T-shirts give you full control over fabric, colour and style.
| Ready-stock T-shirts | Custom-made T-shirts |
| Fabric | Cotton, 150–160 GSM, round neck | Cotton, polyester or dri-fit; 160, 180, 220 or 240 GSM |
| Colours | Red, white, black and navy blue (yellow is often available) | Any colour, matched to your shade |
| Styles | Round neck; oversized / drop shoulder in black and white | Round neck, V-neck, oversized / drop shoulder, full sleeves |
| Sizes | S to 4XL | Standard sizes, custom sizes on request |
A tip for restaurants: kitchens get hot. Many teams choose dri-fit for kitchen staff and cotton for counter and service staff, with the same logo on both.
A tip for offices: if you want the T-shirt to feel premium, a heavier fabric and a clean front-chest logo usually look better than a large print on a light shirt.
Step 2: Choose how your logo is applied
| Method | Best for |
| DTF printing | Full-colour logos and detailed artwork, from a single piece |
| Screen printing | Bold logos with up to 4 colours on bulk orders |
| Puff printing | Raised 3D logos and slogans for brands and merch |
| Vinyl printing | Names, numbers and gold, silver or reflective text |
| Embroidery | A premium stitched logo for office and front-of-house staff |
| Sublimation | All-over designs on polyester and dri-fit shirts |
Not sure which suits your logo? Our DTF vs screen printing vs embroidery guide compares them side by side, or simply send your logo and we will recommend one.
Step 3: Decide where the logo goes
- Front chest: the standard size is about 3 × 3 inches. Clean and professional for offices and service staff.
- Back: up to about 10 × 10 inches. Ideal for delivery riders, event crews and brand slogans that need to be read from a distance.
- Sleeve: a small logo, website or department name adds a finished look.
Bigger sizes are possible on request. Send your logo as a PDF or PNG; a sharp original file always prints better than a screenshot from WhatsApp.
Step 4: Plan quantities and budget
- Single pieces are possible on ready-stock T-shirts with DTF printing, which is handy for samples and new joiners.
- Custom-made T-shirts can also be made from a single piece, but the cost per piece is higher. From around 10 to 15 pieces it becomes much more economical.
- The price per piece goes down as the quantity goes up, so it often makes sense to order for the whole team, plus a few spares for new staff, in one go.
Every quote is prepared for your exact fabric, quantity and print method, so you only pay for what you actually need.
Step 5: Get the sizes right
Custom printed T-shirts cannot be exchanged for a different size, so this step matters. Collect each person’s size in a simple list before you order, and check it against our T-shirt size chart. For a new team, order one or two extra pieces in the most common sizes.

Frequently asked questions
Can I order T-shirts for just a few staff members?
Yes. Ready-stock T-shirts can be printed from a single piece with DTF. Custom-made T-shirts are also possible in small numbers at a higher cost per piece.
Can each T-shirt have a different name?
Yes. Names can be added with vinyl, DTF or embroidery. Send the list of names with the sizes so each shirt is made correctly.
Can you match our brand colour?
Custom-made T-shirts can be made in your shade. Printed colours can vary slightly from what you see on screen, so we recommend approving a sample if an exact colour is important.
Do you deliver outside Lahore?
Yes. We deliver across Pakistan by courier, with urgent out-of-city orders sent by cargo. Delivery charges depend on the location.
