Thanksgiving is the one holiday where the schedule is basically fixed: eat, eat again, argue gently about pie, nap. Add a family photo and a few good shirts and you have the makings of a day everyone will mention for years.
The tees on this page are written for the roles at the table. There is a host shirt, a dishwasher champion, a cousin from the kids' table, an uncle who has gone to sleep, a person who counts carbs instead of anything else, an introvert who would like it kept brief and a whole family that eats too much. Every one of them is gentle, with nothing political and nothing likely to start an argument. Leave that to the sweet potatoes.
This guide helps you choose, size a crowd and order in time.
How to choose
Decide how matching you want to be. Everyone in the same design is easy and good for the photo. A mix of role shirts is funnier, because each person gets a joke that fits them. Matching hosts only, just the cooks, avoids any pressure on guests. If you are not sure, ask your least enthusiastic relative what they would wear and design for them.
Pick a mood. Funny works best on Thanksgiving, because everyone is already in a good mood about food. Cozy suits a photo and a long weekend. Our designs are food-and-family humour: gravy, leftovers, yams, the kids' table and the nap after the third plate.
Sizing a crowd. Our unisex tees are cut relaxed, which is perfect for a day with seconds. Order the usual size, or go up one if you plan to eat a lot, which is wise. Ask every adult to measure a favourite tee flat across the chest and compare with the chart at /pages/size-guide; a medium is about 20.25 inches across, a large about 22, an XL about 24. One person should collect sizes and set a deadline a few days before ordering.
Because every shirt is printed to order, we cannot take returns or exchanges for sizing or a change of mind. Shoppers in the EU keep their 14-day right of withdrawal (see our refund policy). Measuring ahead is worth it.
Care. Wash inside out on cold with similar colours, tumble dry low, no bleach, no iron on the print. Wash the family set together the first time so the colours settle at the same pace.
Photo day. Take the photo before the food comes out, when everyone is clean, hungry and in a good mood. A staircase or the porch steps puts the tall people in back without anyone crouching. Then let the kids be silly, because those are the ones you will print.
