How to make a t-shirt mockup

Make a t-shirt mockup in 4 steps

No Photoshop, no PSD templates and no smart objects: upload, choose, create.

  1. Upload your design

    Add your logo, graphic or lettering as a PNG or JPG. A transparent PNG is best, but a design on a plain white or single-color background works too: the tool removes that background so only the design is printed. No design yet? Try the sample one.

  2. Pick the garment and the color

    Choose a t-shirt, oversized tee, long sleeve, polo, hoodie, sweatshirt or tank top, and one of 12 colors, from white, black and heather gray to navy, red, sand and mustard.

  3. Choose how it is shown

    On a man or a woman, flat lay, hanging, folded, ghost mannequin, or Back print to see the design across the upper back. Make the front and the back with the same file for a full listing.

  4. Create and download

    Press Create my mockup. The AI prints your design into the fabric, following the folds and the light, usually in under 20 seconds, and you download the photo for your shop, your ads or a client.

Front and back

Front and back t-shirt mockups from one file

Pick “On a man”, “On a woman” or any other view for the front, then “Back print” for the back: the design is printed large across the upper back, the way most back prints are placed. Same file, same garment and color, so the two photos match in a listing.

Want a small logo on the chest and a big print on the back? Make the front with the logo file and the back with the large artwork. For the back, a design that reads well from a distance works best: bold shapes and big lettering.

Your file

Which design file works best

A PNG with a transparent background gives the cleanest print. A logo or graphic on a plain white or single-color background works too: before printing, the tool removes the background around the design, so you do not get a white box on a black shirt. White parts inside the design, like the inside of a letter or a badge, are kept.

What does not work as well: a photo with a busy background, which is printed as a rectangle; very thin lines or tiny text, which can blur in the fabric; and white designs on a white shirt, which simply do not show. If your file is small or soft, run it through the image upscaler first. No artwork yet? Make one with the AI logo generator.

Printed, not pasted

Why the print looks real

PSD templates paste your design on top of a stock photo with a smart object, and everyone in your niche uses the same few photos. Here the AI makes a new photo each time and prints the design into the fabric: it follows the folds and the stretch, takes the same light and shadows, and the knit texture shows through the ink.

It is told to keep your design as it is, letters included. The shapes and the words come out right almost every time, but small details can shift: thin text may come out a little bolder, or in a darker color on light garments. If something is off, create it again: every try is a new photo. Need mugs, posters or book covers? Use the mockup generator for products.

Front and back

Back print puts the design across the upper back, so a listing can show both sides from one file.

FAQ

T-shirt mockup questions, answered

Still have a question? Visit the help center →

Is this t-shirt mockup generator free?
Yes. With the Auto model you can make t-shirt mockups for free every day, without creating an account. Plans add more mockups a day.
How do I make a t-shirt mockup?
Upload your design, pick one of 7 garments and 12 colors, choose how the shirt is shown and press Create my mockup. It is usually ready in under 20 seconds, with no PSD template or photo editing software involved.
Can I make a front and back t-shirt mockup?
Yes. Choose Back print to put the design across the upper back, and any other view for the front. Use the same file, garment and color for both so the two photos match.
Which garments and colors can I use?
Seven garments: t-shirt, oversized tee, long sleeve, polo, hoodie, sweatshirt and tank top. Twelve colors: white, black, heather gray, charcoal, navy, royal blue, red, maroon, forest green, sand, light pink and mustard.
What file should I upload?
A PNG with a transparent background is best, and a design on a plain white or single-color background works too, because the tool removes that background before printing. Photos with busy backgrounds are printed as a rectangle.
Will my design and text stay exactly the same?
Almost always the shapes and words stay the same, because the AI is told to keep the design as it is. Small details can change, such as thin text coming out bolder or darker on light garments; if that happens, create it again.
Can I make a hoodie mockup?
Yes. Pick Hoodie in step 2 here, or use the hoodie mockup generator for pullover and zip-up hoodies and crewneck sweatshirts, with every view in a hoodie.
Can I use the mockups in my Etsy or print-on-demand listings?
Yes, you can use them in your listings, ads and social posts. A mockup shows how the design could look; the printed product can differ a little in size and color, so keep that in mind in your listing.
Can I make mugs, posters or book cover mockups here?
No, this page is for clothing. For mugs, framed posters, canvas prints, book covers, phone cases, tote bags and 9 more products, use the mockup generator.
Do I need Photoshop or a PSD template?
No. Everything happens in the browser: you upload your design and get a finished photo, without smart objects or a mockup subscription.
