If you are reading this, somebody said "we should really do shirts this year," and then everyone looked at you. Congratulations. You are now the reunion shirt person, and the good news is that this is one of the more forgiving jobs on the planning list, as long as you do the steps in the right order.
A matching shirt does two small miracles. It makes the group photo look planned, and it helps the cousins who only see each other every few summers work out who belongs to whom.
An honest note up front: we have only a handful of ready-made reunion designs, and they are listed below, along with family, lake, cabin, campfire and cookout tees that suit a reunion weekend. Everything on this page is ready to order today. If you want something more specific, like your family name, a date or a theme, the group order form at /pages/group-orders gets you a set designed for your group. We reply within 1 business day. Orders of 10 or more shirts get 10% off.
How to choose
Decide how matching you want to be
There are three easy ways to do it. Everyone in the same design is the classic, and it photographs beautifully. One colour per family branch, same design, makes the family tree visible from across the park. Or give everyone the same colour and let each household pick a different joke, so your least enthusiastic uncle can choose something he will actually wear.
Sizes for a crowd
Our unisex tees are cut relaxed, with a roomy, easy fit, and sizes run from S to 2XL, with 3XL and 4XL on some designs. The women's boxy tee runs boxy and cropped, so check the size guide at /pages/size-guide before choosing it. For a rough idea, a medium unisex tee measures about 20.25 inches across the chest, a large 22, an XL 24 and a 2XL 26.
Do not ask people what size they are. Ask them to lay a favourite tee flat, measure across the chest and send you the number, then match it to the chart. One short message with the chart attached beats a long thread of "I think I'm a medium, maybe?"
Keep one shared sheet with a row per person: name, size, design and colour. Set the deadline a week before you plan to order, chase stragglers once, and order two or three days after the deadline, not on it. For children, check which sizes each product page lists and, when in doubt, take the next size up so the shirt lasts past the summer.
Colours that work on a lawn full of cousins
Lighter shirts look fresh in summer photos but show barbecue sauce with great honesty. Mid and darker tones hide more and look good against grass and water. Our tees are garment-dyed, so the shade can vary slightly from shirt to shirt, and screens show colour a little differently from real life. Choose colours that still look right together if they are not an exact match.
Names, spelling and nicknames
If your plan includes names, collect them early, spelled exactly the way each person wants to see them. Ask for the version they use, not the one on the birth certificate, and have one person proofread the whole list. The personalised family tee on this page takes a last name and an established year. For a name, date or theme on any other design, use the group order form. We print exactly what you type, so please check every letter before you pay, because once printing has started we cannot stop it.
