I haven’t always been a funny t-shirt aficionado but since my 13-year-old son has decided that his wardrobe should consist of almost nothing but wacky graphic tees, I’ve had to get up to speed fairly quickly. He began forwarding me links to shirts he liked and when I’d check them out, I’d often end up following the companies he likes on Twitter on becoming a fan of them on Facebook. Once I had identified myself as a funny t-shirt purchaser, I began to get tons of follows on Twitter from various funny t-shirt companies…which was surprising to me since prior to this experience, I had no idea just how many sites were servicing this niche market. At any rate, suffice to say that over the last few months I have had the opportunity to check out more funny t-shirt sites than I ever would have believed possible. There is an amazing array of funny and creative stuff out there but a few sites have stood out as particular favorites: one of these is Rizzo Tees.
Rizzo Tees is a St. Louis-based one man operation. The company’s founder, Chris, runs the fledgling business out of his basement and although he still has a day job, it is clear that funny t-shirts are his true calling. He’s created some seriously funny and original tees: among my personal favorites are I Hate Pants (who doesn’t?!), Ceiling Cat vs. Long Cat, and Dalai Lama. Chris also knows how to treat his customers right with friendly service and extra bonuses like drawings for gift certificates on his Facebook fan page.
Bottom line: If you’re in the market for funny t-shirts, you should definitely check out Rizzo Tees. Their t-shirts will have you looking cool and since you’ll be supporting a small business, you’ll feel good too. What could be better than that?
