What makes TruthWear different

Most custom shirt sites hand you a blank canvas and expect you to be the designer. TruthWear is a guided studio that creates the shirt with you — you bring a photo, a feeling, and a few words, and we turn them into real wearable art. Every piece is built from your own photo and moment, so it literally cannot exist for anyone else. Nothing prints until you approve the mockup, and your design is saved to your account so you can reorder anytime. We turn your truth into something you can wear — and nobody else on earth has one.

No. If you can pick a feeling, upload a photo, and type a few words, you can create a TruthWear piece. The studio does the design work with you.

Who creates the shirt

You do. TruthWear is a guided studio, not a design agency. You choose the feeling, upload the image, write the words, and pick the vibe. TruthWear helps you turn those choices into wearable art.

No. If you can pick a feeling and type a few words, you can create a TruthWear piece.

Yes. Your shirt is printed only after you review and approve the final design. Check your spelling, image, layout, size, color, and product before you approve.

Yes. Your design is private to you and never sold to anyone else. You can reorder your approved design anytime from your account.

Only photos you own or have permission to use. Do not upload celebrity images, sports or brand logos, copyrighted artwork, or someone else's image without their permission.

TruthDrops (group shirts)

A TruthDrop is a group shirt for families, churches, teams, creators, businesses, events, and communities. One person creates the design. Everyone can order their own size.

Create your design in the Studio and choose 'Turn This Into a TruthDrop.' Full group payment splitting is launching in phases — request a drop and we'll walk you through it in the meantime.

The shirt itself

Bella+Canvas 3001 — 100% airlume combed and ring-spun cotton, heavyweight, classic unisex fit. Industry-standard premium blank used by most boutique brands.

Check the size guide on the checkout page (look for the 'Size guide' link). Boxy unisex sizing — if you're between sizes, size up. Heavyweight cotton shrinks ~3% on first wash.

Black, White, Navy, Vintage Black, Heather Grey, and Natural. We picked these because they make every AI-designed graphic look sharp.

Cold wash inside out, tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid bleach and don't iron directly over the print.

Shipping & returns

Production takes 2–5 business days, then shipping adds 3–7 business days in the US (longer internationally). You'll get a tracking number by email once it ships.

Yes — shipping is calculated at checkout based on your destination.

Email us within 14 days of delivery with a photo and we'll reprint or refund. Custom designs aren't returnable for taste reasons (the whole point is you approved the proof), but printing defects and wrong sizes are on us.

Yes — sign in to your account and you'll see live status (Designed → Paid → Printing → Shipped → Delivered) plus the tracking number once available.

Payment & privacy

Yes. Payment is processed by Stripe — we never see or store your card number. PCI-compliant, the same processor used by Shopify, Lyft, and Amazon.

You do. Truth Wear keeps no commercial license to your specific shirt design. We may show your design publicly only if you opt in at checkout.

We use it to generate your design. It's stored privately in your account so you can reorder. We never sell it, share it, or use it for any other purpose.
