New iPod T-Shirts Dubbed mpTees
Nov 15th, 2006 | By James Lewin | Category: iPod AccessoriesPrint Wear Wholesalers, a New Jersey clothing wholesaler, has introduce a new design of T-shirts that lets wearers work out or hang out with a portable media player safely stowed in a pocket and with wires out of the way.
“mpTees” are designed to be screen printed or embroidered for retail use or as promotional items.
“We saw a need for a garment that affords users of an ear-wired iPod or cell phone freedom of movement along with easy access to the device to change the station or dial another call” Steve Hroncich, President for Printwear Wholesalers. “We believe it makes a great promotional giveaway for any company that targets music lovers or gadget devotees.”
MpTees can be ordered in quantities of 120 shirts or more. It comes as a short sleeved or long sleeved 100% cotton shirt in adult sizes small to 3XL or a fitted short sleeved 100% ringspun cotton shirt in adult junior sizes, small to XL. All styles come in six colors.
The pocket is shaped and positioned so that the iPod or other small device will remain safely in it. Two slots allow the earphone wires to stay underneath the shirt for most of their way up to the user’s ears.
“For any company that wants to appeal to the 25+ million people who have iPods or MP3 players and countless cell phone users, imprinted MpTees will get their target market excited,” predicts Hroncich. “Retailers will like the fact that MP3 player owners instantly ‘get’ the idea when they see a sample.”
