At Brand X Custom T-shirts, we take an "offline" approach to custom t-shirt making. That is, we want YOU to experience the "hands-on" approach to creating your perfect dream shirt. We want it to be everything (and maybe more than) you had pictured in your head. A Brand X Custom T-shirt makes the perfect customizable gift for yourself (or anyone for that matter). And unlike the "other" online companies - where you upload an image into cyberspace, wait for up-to 2 weeks (while crossing your fingers) hoping that you actually get what you ordered, and that the image wont fall off in the wash... (Trust us, we hear these stories everyday) ...with Brand X, that wont happen.

Come in,

  • CHOOSE from our ever-growing selection of colorful quality t-shirts, hoodies and more...
  • TRY IT ON!
  • BROWSE through our awesome collection of fonts and graphics... (or bring us your own personal photo or art*)
  • SHOW US exactly where you want your text, art, graphic, photograph, etc...
  • SEE the colors of ink, flocking, glitter, or foils, and know with certainty that it's a perfect match.
  • KICK BACK on our couches, or wander the Mill Avenue District in beautiful downtown Tempe while we work our magic, because many small orders, or single shirts can be made while you wait!**
  • IMPRESS your friends!

*all provided art/graphics/photographs must not be copyrighted or trademarked, cannot promote hate towards any specific group or person(s), and you must have the rights to be able to reproduce that image. (please also read on the products & services page about acceptable forms of art and file formats) **wait times dependent upon our current workload, the number of shirts in your order, and the complexity of your order.

Meet the Brand X Crew

Bryan X

Bryan is a rare AZ native. He is grinning ear to ear these days because he is a newlywed and Brand X couldn't be happier for him and his lovely wife. When Bryan isn't spending time with his family being the "cool uncle" he is here at Brand X sharing his retail expertise. Bryan hates everything about public restrooms and loves everything vintage–toys, clothing and music–he is a connoisseur.

Charles X

Born and raised in the small-town of Alma, Michigan, Charles moved to the Phoenix area just over 4 years ago. With his business degree, management skills, and background in business, Charles is the "numbers man" at Brand X. He is very passionate about: organization, having a balanced checkbook, supporting local business, his iphone, and anything with buttons, switches, or levers (he will try them all). He's a bit of a wine snob, his favorite color is blue, he's a workaholic (save the pity party and just buy him a drink), and he hates bugs.

Emily X

Emily is the newest addition to Brand X. Emily moved to AZ when she was an adorable 4 year old who enjoyed digging in the family garden for worms. She lives in Tempe now and has always been the beloved sister of Kirstin X. Brand X knows good creative genes run in this family, so we could not resist adding the "sister act" to our team. Everyone at Brand X has many talents and Emily is no exception. She is a certified pastry chef who is making plans to run her own business. When she is not making delicious shirts, Emily is crafting new recipes for cookies, cakes and pies.

Kirstin X

Kirstin is a playful art maven who has lovingly called Tempe home for the past decade. This curious girl has a BFA in photography and a never-ending need to learn, see, hear and do. Her small but capable hands will get your design set in just the right way. Kirstin has daydreams of retiring someday to an old house with a view in Iceland full of her favorite things (friends, cats, & sharpies). She drinks her coffee in the shower.

Phil X

Phil (or "Philthy" as he's affectionately known to some) comes to us all the way from Edgewood, Maryland. He has a fancy degree (Bachelor Of Arts) and majored in Gaming/Graphic Arts. Aside from all of his book-learnin' skills, he's also known for his mad-dancin' skillz. Philthy leads a double-life (as a Bboy-extraordinaire) in the underground AZ B-boy scene. He's got all the right moves. He busts out your amazing T-shirts by day, busts funky moves by night, and wows the ladies 24/7.

Shane X

A Phoenix native, Shane X is the brainchild behind Brand X Custom T-shirts, and brings his artistic and creative talents to the table. He has been making custom "1 off" shirts for over 10 years, and is a bit of a perfectionist. Shane X is a "Jack-Of-All-Trades" (and a master of many). He worked for five different Fortune 500 companies (solidifying his disdain for Corporate America) before deciding to work on his own. Shane LIKES bugs, (reptiles, and anything to do with Marine Biology) He lives on Red Bull, works 7 days a week and sleeps about 5 hours a day.
