Colors and logos are important, but you can\u2019t forget about your fonts. With the right fonts (also known as typefaces) you can make your business signage and marketing materials stand out from the rest. Below are some of our recommendations for establishing your business’ “look” with the best fonts for business t-shirts.\r\n\r\n

Font Categories<\/h2>\r\nFirst, a quick primer on fonts. There are two main font styles\u2013serif and sans serif: \r\n
    \r\n
  1. A serif font<\/b> has short lines at the ends of the letters, making it look less blocky. One of the most popular serif fonts that you might know is Times. \r\n\r\n
  2. Sans serif fonts<\/b> are just that\u2013a font \u201csans\u201d or without serif. A common sans serif font is Arial. \r\n<\/ol>\r\nExamples of other font categories are: script, handwritten, Greek, and decorative fonts, which you\u2019ll see in some of our examples below and categorized in our Design Lab.\r\n

    Our Best Fonts for Business Picks<\/h2>\r\nFor business materials and business t-shirts, we\u2019ve narrowed it down to include fonts in the three main styles we know businesses look for: bold, standard, and playful. In the graphic below, you\u2019ll also see these fonts in font pairings, as well as some of our favorite business templates<\/a> that use these fonts.\r\n\r\n\"best\r\n

          Any Business Can Use Fonts<\/h2>\r\nWhen it comes to the fonts Custom Ink customers use for their businesses, we see that many of them use bold, standard fonts that are easily scalable. When businesses design something for an event or outing, or for a specific department, more playful fonts are often paired with the company’s logo or a unique design.\r\n\r\nAnd don\u2019t think that you have to be a graphic designer or work in a creative field to use fonts effectively for your business! Businesses we see use our fonts the most include first responders, landscaping, contractors, and large businesses such as sports & government. So you can save lives or build houses, and design an amazing t-shirt, too!\r\n\r\n

          Pairing Fonts<\/h2>\r\nAlmost as important as choosing a font is pairing multiple fonts. Pairing two unique fonts together adds depth and style to your design. You\u2019ll see in our graphic above some of our favorite fonts to pair together. Using Garden Grown Script with LifeHack Caps is perfect for a fun and approachable business. The script is feminine and makes for a great headline, while the playful font is perfect and easy to read for subheadlines and longer areas of text. For something a bit more serious, we love pairing Luxury Diamond with Copperplate. The bold Luxury Diamond gives the design a high-end look and the standard fav Copperplate complements it without being overpowering. \r\n\r\nIf you\u2019re ready to start designing your business t-shirts, head to our Design Lab<\/a> and check out all of our fun fonts.
