The Perfect Super Soft T-Shirts for Iron-On Transfer Projects

Do you like to make your own iron-on t-shirts, but have a hard time finding quality shirts that are soft, comfortable, well fitted and a good price?  I have searched high and low to find the perfect t-shirts for iron-on transfer projects.  Trust me, you will be so very grateful for these products!    Keep reading to see them all.

I’ll get real with you.  I have never been a fan of regular plain old t-shirts.  You  know, those t-shirts that have sports logos, funny sayings, and so much more. 

I always find them to be rough, stiff and just not comfortable overall.  I want my shirts to have a certain fit.  I want them to be soft, hang nicely, have a bit of a loose look to them so that I can tuck the front of the shirt into my jeans if I want.  Most often, generic t-shirts that are used for screen printing or vinyl do not feel very 

When we travel, you’d think I would want to buy a t-shirt as a souvenir, but I would rather spend that money on an article of clothes that I would actually wear.

Recently, I was able to try out the new Cricut Maker, the Cricut Easy Press 2 and so much more.  I have a huge desire to create so many things with these products and one of them is iron-on apparel.  I spend a lot of time working out and love wearing fun workout tanks and tees that represent my personality a bit.

You can see some of my favorite cricut projects ideas here on Pinterest.

I also like to give my husband a bit of a warning as far as my mood for the day depending on what I-shirt I am wearing haha!

I also think that athleisure is where its at this year.  I cute, super soft tee, a pair of leggings and some cute Adidas is my go to lately and I am so excited to make some fun t-shirts, sweatshirts, and tanks for my collection.  

Finding a source for t-shirts for iron on projects is like striking gold.  Having a shirt that is soft, wears and washes well is key when creating your own t-shirts.  We’ve all worn those cotton tees that are rough to the touch and don’t lay well.

Once I found the source for a great iron-on t-shirt, I was thrilled to order a few and try them out on my Cricut Maker and Cricut Easy Press 2.  The first thing I purchased was a couple of their sweatshirts.  I then bought some t-shirts and tank tops as well.  

The prices are so good, I felt confident in the purchase even if they didn’t work out.  But they totally did.  I found this brand because I had purchased a screen printed shirt back when we visited Seattle last year.  I was obsessed with the softness of the shirt and had to look into it. So,  you could say that I am not inventing the wheel, I am just hoping to provide some sources for those that may not have known where to look.

  1. hi, when you wash the sweatshirts, do you put them in the dryer? i am confused about what i’m hearing regarding HTV sweatshirts (and tees) and drying them. .

  2. Have you found any Dolman style shirts? My favorite brand (with print already) is Superluxe. I’m trying to find something similar to that to print on. Thanks!
