Hey everyone, I need some honest feedback on an older shirt design of mine. It’s getting decent traffic and views, but zero sales, so I know something is wrong with the visual layout or font choices.
It is meant to be printed on a white t-shirt for pet lovers and remote workers. Please look at the layout, typography, and contrast and tell me what is stopping people from wanting to buy or wear this. Don’t hold back
The lack of color, maybe.
Personally, I like more subtle, smaller graphics on t-shirts, but that’s just me.
If a person has a dachshund, would they really be interested in buying a shirt that professes their affection for a golden retriever?
Yeh are they uploading their own dogs face? And working remotely, who’s gonna see it?
Even if it was customised i still wouldn’t buy it.
Have you tried it on other merchandise. Our maybe repack it as a gift set. Someone starting working remotely a family member or friend could gift it.
Maybe try on other products.
Without the dog on it.
Options for cat, turtle, rabbit, etc
Make it optional and have graphics or not.
Plain text cheaper. Paw graphics extra, phot of actual pet most expensive.
Tshirts, mugs, tote bags, pens.
Try different marketing and substrates.
Do your other shirts sell?
I like the design; it seems balanced. Maybe adding some colour would make it more interesting? Since the focus of the shirt is the dog—which catches people’s attention—I suggest placing the dog after the title ‘My Dog, then my favourite co-worker.’ This would really help the design grab attention
Posted this in your duplicate thread (only one thread per topic please for those of us easily confused.)
I don’t own a Lab. Also don’t want a dog looking like it’s coming outta my pants (the illustration is way down to the beltline. And why the checked background? Or is that a photoshop artifact? Get rid of it.
See what happens if you remove the dog illo.
Dup post removed.
I bought my wife a t-shirt like this one for when she takes our beagle on a walk each evening. For some reason, she refuses to wear it.
That would definitely be a statement piece of clothing.
I am east european and I think your t-shirt message is way to personal.
The dog is cute but the message may sound odd in my opinion. 
Views without sales usually point to a conversion problem rather than a design problem. If the listing page shows a flat mockup, try real model photos — shirts sell on fit and fabric feel, and a flat graphic can’t show either. A clear size chart, a couple of honest reviews, and pricing in line with similar tees in the niche all matter more than most sellers expect. On the design side, I’d simplify the composition: the dog and the message are competing for attention, and shoppers decide in seconds, so give them one clear focal point. Also pay attention to the thumbnail — most buyers never click past a weak first image. Small changes there usually move the needle more than reworking the artwork itself.
