Threadless is an online community of artists and an e-commerce website
teeplus is a local website that plays two roles, it allows you to buy apparel using local designs, and it allows you to sell apparel using your own original designs. It’s similar to the popular website Threadless except it’s local.
Buy Tshirts by Local Artists
The website contains hundreds and hundreds of designs submitted by various artists and designers with many of them being localized designs or ideas which makes them unique. Prices are pretty good with t-shirts starting at 9KD and sweatshirts for 15KD.
Sell & Create
As an artist, you can also make money by selling products that use your design ranging from t-shirts and sweatshirts to tote bags and phone covers. The way it works is you create an account, upload your design and then decide what you want to apply the design too. For every product, you sell through the website you make a profit ranging from 15% to 20%.
Even though teeplus is not a new idea, it’s still a great initiative since it creates an outlet for local artists to be able to generate money using their work. I’ve already added a whole bunch of t-shirts to my cart and still browsing for more as of this post. If you want to check out the designs or buy a t-shirt, the website is teeplus.co

One setback in my opinion though is that they work with digital designs only which I understand, since printing quality needs to be high. Everything is going digital in art now, but there are lots of great artists that still draw traditionally.
Even with artists that draw traditionally, it isn’t an issue since their drawings would just get converted to digital. The artwork doesn’t have to be done digitally, the file just needs to be digital.
This is going to hurt my wallet. Thanks for the find, Mark!
Mark show us your loot if you don’t mind.
It’s on my other mac so will grab a screenshot tomorrow
Appreciate it 🙂
You should definitely be a creator (on the website) and have your high-resolution vintage Kuwaiti newspaper ads on there. I remember you had a post where you printed an old Rambo ad on a t-shirt and it looked quite dope.
