“Beware the mundane, the comfortable, the lackluster or the negative. We are, by nature, brutal with our criticisms of others. We tend to take the microwaveable, quick and easy approach to life, to problems, to challenges. Step out of your comfort zone. Find your passion.” – Stormi Murtie, The Center for Courageous Kids

Over the past 25 years, custom t-shirts have increasingly become a form of mass communication. Used for advertising and promotion, to show one’s alliegence to a team, or to champion a cause or charity, custom t-shirts give you an opportunity to share your message with everyone you meet.

One of our core values at BlueCotton is to help our customers share their message through quality custom products. When I first met Stormi Murtie, communications director for The Center for Courageous Kids, I didn’t realize that I was meeting an inspirational powerhouse that would help BlueCotton make this core value more tangible.

She told me about the 20 million dollar state-of-the-art medical camping facility in nearby Scottsville, KY and invited BlueCotton to visit and learn about their mission to provide a “cost-free, safe and fun camping experience for seriously ill and disabled children and their families.”

Neon is back? Believe it! What is old is new again. Fashion trends from 25 years ago are creeping their way back into the mainstream. This Spring we will be sprinkling our wardrobes with neon green or neon yellow tees. Our Anvil 3979 Neon shirts will take your boring wardrobe to the ‘party zone.’ We have seen this before. Ray Ban Aviator sunglasses are cool and hip again. So too are Sperry Top-Siders. I see people wearing Top-Siders who wouldn’t know where to find the bow of a boat. This is nothing new. Trends move thru cycles and neon is just one of them. I just hope we don’t see neon jeans or worse yet… MC Hammer pants. ICKY!

We’re excited to announce the upcoming addition of over 30 new garments to our custom t-shirt design studio. We haven’t added this many new items since the launch of BlueCotton.com in 2003.

For our earth-friendly and green-conscious fans, we will be adding three more organic t-shirts choices and a shirt that is made of recycled cotton.

We’ve also beefed up our performance wear options for the gym rats. We’re adding more Adidas and Champion garments to our stable as well as a new moisture-wicking garment from Hanes. If you’re looking for your old P.E. shirt from middle school, The new Canvas shirt is perfect for those that are looking for a workout shirt that doesn’t have the “performance” feel or look…just well-worn softness.
