8 Spring Break T-shirt & Custom Design Ideas


Feel the sand between your toes and take a dip in the ocean this spring break–but don’t forget your custom swag! Maybe you’re relaxing under a palm tree with your small group of friends, or going all out in Cancun with everyone from your senior class, there’s really no wrong way to spring break. Matching t-shirts are a great way to make your group stand out from the crowd–and also helpful for not losing each other at the airport. Or if you’re looking for fun memorabilia from the trip of a lifetime, customize koozies to keep everyone’s drink cold at the beach and when you’re back on campus. Whether a book in the shade or a match of beach volleyball is more your vacation style, check out some of our favorite spring break tees and custom gear below. They’re sure to turn up the heat on any trip!

8 Spring Break T-shirt & Custom Design Ideas

  1. T-shirts
  2. If you visit the Custom Ink blog regularly, you know that we just can’t get enough of the Next Level Sueded T-shirt right now. The fact that it’s super soft makes it perfect for any occasion, but its lightweight, premium fabric just screams “spring break!” to us. It comes in tons of fun colors and we can’t help but love the “tahiti blue” for your beach trip. Add this “keep calm it’s spring break” design and you and your besties are ready to hit the road!

  3. Crop Tank Tops
  4. Your group will be the trendiest on the sand in these Bella + Canvas Women’s Racerback Crop Tank Tops. The relaxed fit and raw edge armholes exude beach life, and they’re perfect for wearing over your bathing suit or to that morning beach yoga sesh. Bright colors are fun for spring break, but we love this tank in black with bold pink & orange lettering. If the nacho life chose you, use our “nachos before muchachos” design–and don’t forget the extra guac!

  5. Patch Hats
  6. Who has time to worry about doing their hair on vacation? Not us! Bring along a one of a kind hat that’s great for throwing on and running to the pool. It’s also the perfect accessory for keeping the sun off of your face. Our Oval Printed Patch Trucker Hats are a trendy canvas for your favorite design. We’d add this “beach hair don’t care” art to our hat and wear it all day long. The vintage look will be a hit and the adjustable strap makes it a fit for any group.

  7. Koozies
  8. No matter what drink you want to keep cold, these Deluxe Vinyl Foldable Can Koozies will have everyone at the beach turning their heads. The gold gives it that extra something, and is sure to impress all your metallic-loving friends. It packs up small so it’s great for traveling–even if you’re only flying carry on! And if you’re not feeling super social, this “don’t talk to me I’m on vacation” is awesome for any beach bum.

  9. Beach Bags
  10. Don’t forget the sunscreen. And your book. And your headphones! A surefire way to make sure you’ve got everything you need for a day at the beach? A killer beach bag. We swoon over this Large Gusseted Patterned Bottom Tote. The patterns make it extra stylish and the durable canvas and interior pockets make it functional, too. We love this “life is better at the beach” design with the aqua bottom, but how great would it look in the coral as well?

  11. Frisbees
  12. You can’t just lay in the sun all day long. Ok, maybe you can, but it’s fun to get moving, too! Whether you’re traveling with a big group of friends or you’re a small pack looking to meet some new friends, bringing a frisbee along is a sure way to have a great time. Not only can you throw our Transparent Frisbees around on the beach or at the hotel, but they’re the perfect keepsake of the most fun spring break, ever. Show off your class pride with this “senior squad” design, and pick your school colors for the backdrop!

  13. Sunglasses
  14. You can’t go on spring break without sunglasses–you just can’t! Unite your group in these Promotional Mirrored Sunglasses. The stylish white frames will stand out by the pool and the tinted mirrored lenses make a statement. We love the blue tint! Add a design (slaycation, anyone?) and you’re ready for a day in the sun. The best part is the lenses provide 100% UVA and UVB protection.

  15. Beach Towels
  16. Boring beach towels? Beach, please! Your group will love having matching towels by the resort pool, and these Lightweight Embroidered Beach Towels are 100% cotton and super easy to pack. They come in a bunch of bright colors (we love the gold!) and will look amazing with your custom design or embroidered monogram. Not only will you love using these towels for years to come and looking back on your spring break memories, but you won’t be left without a towel when the pool gets busy, either–win, win!
