Teenormous: Another Site For Searching T-Shirts Online

abhijeet — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 01:20:55 +0000

I talked about PleaseDressMe sometime back which searched different t-shirt vendors online to find our favorite t-shirt. Teenormous is another t-shirt search site in this league which scours through different t-shirt vendors like Busted Tees and Think Geek and shows you the available results.

It has the options to search through keywords and browse t-shirts by color. And if you compare it with PleaseDressMe, it searches a greater number of stores and hence produces a greater variety of t-shirts for any corresponding search query.

PleaseDressMe: Search Engine For Cool T-Shirts

abhijeet — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 18:57:09 +0000

Those who usually buy funky t-shirts from online stores like Threadless, BustedTees and TshirtHell would love this new site named PleaseDressMe. It lets you search for cool tshirts in all reputed online t-shirt stores from one place. It has a nice and simple user interface and allows you to search for t-shirts by keywords, color, tags and price.

It shows a good collection of tags ranging from pun and music to colorful and geek. I browsed by a few tags and the selection seemed good, although for many search terms there were just one or two t-shirts.
Here’s what it had for the tag ‘ geek ‘.

Overall, it’s a nice site and since it’s still new we can surely expect a wider range of t-shirt vendors and hence more variety of t-shirts to buy.
