If you design t-shirts for a business or fundraiser, you want your designs to stand out. A vital part of a great design is the right color combination, but color theory can get confusing fast. In this post, I will compare the 26 best t-shirt color combinations based on my research, as well as my own experience printing t-shirts over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When designing color combinations, try going for classic neutrals, analogous colors (those that group together on the color wheel, like blue and purple), monochromatic schemes (like two blues), or a pairing between red, blue, or green with yellow or white for maximum pop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Using complementary colors (those opposite each other on the color wheel, like blue and orange, gives a combination with possibly too much pop. Use these with caution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Be aware that dark inks may muddy on dark shirts and that light prints may require an outline of a dark color to prevent detail from disappearing on lighter grounds. Aim for contrast in tone: light on dark or dark on light. Let\u2019s have a look at the 26 best t-shirt color combinations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
