About Hot Mess and Our T-shirts.




            In the fall of 2008 I found myself, like many other Americans, out of work.  I didn’t want to work another job I loathed going in to every day, even if I could find one, which was proving impossible at the time.
            Ideas began to swarm in my head - stories of people just like me who turned this negative situation into an opportunity to do something they loved and I loved two things at the time – great retro t-shirts and not having a boss.
            I took my the last of my very small savings  and bought a heat press, shirts,  heat transfers and designed my first website with no experience and with just an idea and a hope to do something I enjoyed and  still be able to afford the little luxuries like food and shelter.
            I said goodbye to my awesome condo, boxed my things for storage and moved into my best friend’s garage where for a year and a half I researched the business, opened an online store and attended many local events slinging t-shirts with all the determination I had.  I knew this could work if I worked hard enough and didn’t give up. With the help of my best friend & his garage (and him feeding and keeping a roof over my head), my sister (picking out all the girl stuff and listening to every idea and whim I thought of) and the pure belief that I would make this work Hot Mess T-shirts came into being. Named so by a nickname my friends lovingly called me- Hot Mess T-shirts was born.
Here at Hot Mess T-shirts we follow a few simple practices:
Provide a great product at a fair price.
We are always shopping for the most innovative, cost- effective and eco-friendly options. We can then pass the savings onto our customers, while offering fresh products and being responsible to the environment.
Each Hot Mess T-shirt is filled to order specifications to ensure quality and accuracy. We inspect every item and ship directly to you.
Reduce the impact our business has on the environment.
We use a poly mailer to ship our items that do not go Priority Post. The mailer is made of 30% post consumer recycled material. We do not print care instructions, flyers and coupons. These can all be found on our site and downloaded for your convenience.
We are pleased to say that our preferred shipping method is U.S.P.S. Priority Mail that has been 100% Cradle to Cradle certified. Read more here: http://www.usps.com/communications/newsroom/2007/pr07_051.htm 
Be innovative and have fun at work:
We started in this business because we love t-shirts!
We wear our t-shirts and take pride in the products we carry. There is always excitement at our newest design ideas and latest styles and rest assured if we find something doesn’t meet our quality standards or we wouldn't buy it ourselves - we don't carry it.
We know that you have a choice and we thank you for choosing us!
