Just a semi-quick poll, what t-colours are your favs right now?

Which are complete no-nos?

No white, light pinks, certain light yellows... eh...



Bolder colors attract me.





btw: I like your picture. It makes me laugh.

For shirts, I like neutrals or light colors. Dark colors can cloak a body, especially given the shape of most men's tees. Not a fan of white shirts, too default, but still useful in select cases.



For print colors, check out my submission horrorbyte. I dislike very uncoordinated colors, and I usually hate bold greens.



Colors should work together to form a context, and usually their relative interplay can seem more important than what each color is objectively. Good color relationships make impressive color presentations.



I stay away from red, because red is too easy.

I really like most of the colors- I know that doesn't help.



I'm not a big fan of white, natural, or red.



Yeah, your profile pic is great!

Royal Blue (never, ever)

as far as i'm concerned, tee colours, anything but black. colours in the design can be any as long as they work well together, as per spires' reply.

I am noticeably attracted to yellow and brown tee designs.

Also that denim-y color is very nice.

It depends on the design.

But a good safety is no light colors (white, ash, natural) unless you have a very strong design to carry them.

I would never buy a white t-shirt unless it had a fucking huge print.



I am usually put off by designs involving any shade of my least favourite colour, purple.



Pale blue t-shirts are not my friends, although I can permit the use of pale blue as part of the design.



I crave both a vivid pink t-shirt and an orange one.

Yes, the 'athletic heather' look reminds me of gym class and jocks, generally. It is a bad base for any sophisticated idea.



I have a negative association there.
