A Birthday Celebration

Given the significance of the t-shirt in American society, CustomInk has planned a fitting celebration. Birthday activities from now through the end of the summer include:-An interactive birthday website www.tshirtbirthday.com on which guests can celebrate the life of the t-shirt by browsing:

-A timeline of major milestones in the history of the t-shirt, from its transition from underwear to outerwear, to the first political tee, the tie die craze and more.

-CustomInk's gallery of the 100 most iconic t-shirts of all time (premiering in late April)

-T-shirt trivia

-Video messages from t-shirt loving Americans (online this spring)

-CustomInk's design lab, in which they can design and order their own custom t-shirts

A campaign to fundraise for our troops, honoring the military origins of the t-shirt and our country's service men and women. Each month between now and the summer, CustomInk will feature a limited-edition, custom-designed t-shirt representing each branch of our military -- designed by service members. Proceeds from the sale of the shirts will benefit the Yellow Ribbon Fund, Inc., which supports members of our armed forces recovering at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, and their families.

The first featured t-shirt, representing the U.S. Navy, is available from now through the end of April, and was designed by Captain David Tarantino -- a Navy doctor who earned the Navy Marine Corps Medal for his heroic actions at the Pentagon on September 11, 2001.
