Creativity and customisation – if that’s what you fancy for the giving, then check out our bookmarks for the clicking. This list grows as we find more sites, so check back every now and then when your shopping mood strikes.
Neighborhoodies
Personalise your casualwear. They’re not cheap, but you get to pick from 3 customisation styles – pressed, stitched or fuzzy patches. They’ve also got readymade tshirt designs for an average of $20 apiece (as of this article). Mostly American Apparel gear, so you’ve got a decent reference for cut, colour, size and quality.
Zazzle
Awesome range of products at this store, from your standard whitelabel stock (t-shirts, mugs, mousepads) to stuff with more customisable street cred – shoes, ties, skateboards and photosculptures. Embroidery is another option for getting your swag styled up.
Cafepress
This site’s been around for bloody ages, and their stock range has continued to grow immensely since the old days. All the standard make-your-own bases are available, along with a couple of not-so-everyday things to bring in the extra cool – create your own books & cds, and get your own design on a Flip Mino video camera – how unique!
