The Big Categories Of Birthday Shirts

Some birthdays, like the 21^st birthday or the 50^th birthday, can be described as huge milestones. These are the birthdays where big changes are ahead of you. Turning 21 for example allows you to do some serious partying. Turning 30, 40, 50 or 60 means that you already have some decades behind you and you’re probably ready to take on many more. For these kind of birthdays, a birthday T-Shirt that mentions the age is a great gift. For others, a more general shirt might be a better fit so that they can also wear it on their next birthdays. Thinking about what kind of birthday shirt the recipient might appreciate the most is important. While some get a good laugh out of hilarious birthday shirts, others will be very happy about a shirt that is customized just for them. Here are some of the most common birthday shirt categories:

21st Birthday Shirts

One of the most important birthdays in everyone’s life is the 21^st birthday. You’re now legally allowed to drink some or a lot of alcohol. This comes in handy when the big birthday bash is just around the corner. Turning 21 is often a big turning point and makes many feel like a “real” adult. 21^st birthday shirts often play off the idea that you can now drink and there are some pretty funny 21^st birthday shirts out there. Other shirts just let everyone know that he or she is finally 21. A more elegant design is a great choice when looking for birthday shirts for women.

30th Birthday Shirts

Turning 30 can be scary and awesome at the same time. Being 30 means you’re not in your immature and clueless twenties anymore. Many feel more mature, more experienced and more knowledgeable. This however doesn’t mean that they want a lame 30^th birthday shirt. 30^th birthday T-Shirt designs still proclaim that the recipient is ready to have a good time and that they’re ready to take on the next decade. A 30 year old has probably figured out their style by now and looks better than ever. For 30^th birthday shirts the question is if you want to go all out and show the world that he/she is still hot and beautiful or will he/she rather appreciate a more mellow, yet funny shirt? If so, a shirt that can be worn to a get-together or a night out in the bar might be a better choice.

40th Birthday Shirts

Turning 40 makes many nervous because this means they’re now going into the direction of 50. However, this doesn’t make the recipients any less awesome. The last decade probably only added to their awesomeness and knowledge. Some 40^th birthday shirts for adults are designed with a wink to explain that being 40 is really not that bad. Other adult birthday T-Shirt designs celebrate the big 4-0 loud and proud. He or she might be older now but that doesn’t mean they don’t know how to party. For the ones that still love to go out, a birthday shirt for adults that hints to their party habit would be a great gift idea.

50th Birthday Shirts

At some point the day comes and the 50^th birthday arrives. This is a great reason to celebrate their accomplishments. It’s time to look back and appreciate all the good moments, the experiences, friends and family. At the same time there’s still so much to look forward to. By now, the recipient probably enjoys the finer things in life, so getting a birthday T-Shirt that proclaims this would be a good idea. Others might not have a problem with turning 50 at all. For those, a funny shirt that pokes a little fun at their age will bring a good laugh to everyone at the birthday party.

60th Birthday Shirts

The 60^th birthday is one of the most important birthdays. It’s been now 6 decades since life started and many good things happened. Looking back there’s much to be thankful for. 60^th birthday shirts can add to this nostalgia and remind the recipient of how lucky they’ve been so far and how time will only get better. Some 60 year olds still love to have a good time. A birthday shirt that plays off the idea of how you can go out and party no matter how old you are would be a perfect gift idea for him or her. Others know that 60 is a ripe age and don’t have any problem with making fun about their age. Get a funny 60^th birthday T-Shirt to bring a big smile to their face.

Custom Birthday Shirts

Some people only deserve the best and an unforgettable birthday gift. Something unique and so special that he or she will appreciate it for many more years. Personalized birthday shirts are the perfect and thoughtful gift if you want to get a present that will match the recipient’s personality. If your looking for a birthday shirt for you dad or grandpa, the “Papa The Man The Myth The Legend” shirt would be great shirt to personalize. This Etsy seller accepts custom requests to change “Papa” to any name you’d like, for example Pops or Pop Pop. There’s also a “Vintage 1951 Aged To Perfection” shirt. The year can also be personalized. Just reach out to the seller and ask to have it changed.

Funny Birthday Shirts

Some people just want to have a good laugh, especially on their birthday. These are the ones that appreciate a good joke or that have a tendency to always have a little dirty joke ready. Getting a funny birthday shirt for adults is a must. Not only will those kinds of shirts bring a smile to the recipient’s face, but the whole party crew will have a good laugh. It might also help to get a few free drinks here and there on their night out. One of our favorite funny birthday shirts is the “People My Age Are So Much Older Than me” shirt. It hints to the wearer’s age but points out correctly that you’re only as old as you feel. Another awesome and funny birthday T-Shirt is the “I Age Well Like A Fine Wine”. The recipient might be in their 30^th, 40^th, 50^th or 60^th, but he/she still looks incredibly good.

Birthday Girl T-Shirts For Adults

If your best friend, mom, sister or any other important woman in your life has her birthday coming up, there has to be a gift that is just as great as her. Finding a birthday girl T-Shirt for adults can be tricky. The shirt shouldn’t be too cute and age appropriate. It also shouldn’t make too much fun of her age, since this is often a sensitive topic. Here are two of our favorite women’s birthday shirts. One of them is the “I Look 24 I Feel 20 I Act 16 I Am 60” shirt. This birthday shirt for women is perfect if you’re planning to have a fun night out on her special day. This shirt shows how much fun she still is and that she’s ready to have a good time. Another great shirt for your favorite girl’s 21^st birthday is the “Finally Twenty One Shirt”. This shirt is elegant and just says enough to explain, why today is such a special day.

Birthday Tank Tops

The cut and style of a birthday shirt is very important when deciding what kind of gift to choose. Some women prefer a women’s tank top instead of a fitted shirt. These often create a beautiful neckline. The fact that the shirts are sleeveless also means that birthday tank tops are a great choice for a hot summer day. The tank top is also easy to dress up or down, depending on the occasion. The “21 And Hot But Me A Shot” tank top is a fun shirt for her 21^st birthday party. This tank top would be a great choice if you are planning to go out to a bar or a club and will help to get a few free drinks. The “Damn! I Make 30 Look Good” tank top is perfect if you want to let her know that you think that she is still absolutely stunning. This 30^th birthday tank top is guaranteed to make her smile.

Finding The Right Birthday Shirt

When looking for birthday shirts for adults the amount of advertised products can be overwhelming. In oder to get a gift very quickly one often forgets to take important factors into account before making a final decision and getting a memorable gift. This could mean a disappointed recipient and lead to an awkward situation. Considering some factors such as personality, age and style can help to narrow down the selection of birthday shirt ideas.

Putting a little thought into what the recipient might like to wear is a great starting point to find adult birthday shirts that he or she will wear for many years to come. The shirt should fit his/her day-to-day style, and his/her humor. For big milestone birthdays such as 21^st, 30^th, 40^th, 50^th or 60^th birthdays, getting a shirt that mentions their age would be a great choice. When you’re looking for a happy birthday shirt that will make him or her laugh, getting a shirt with a funny saying or joke would be a perfect gift. If you want to get a shirt that is on point with the recipient’s personality, getting a customized T-Shirt with their name, nickname or birth year will definitely make them smile. Does the recipient prefer a more toned down birthday? Then getting a shirt with a straightforward or subtle message is the right choice.

Choosing A Birthday Shirt That Matches His/Her Personality

The Casual Guy

A birthday shirt that simply states the fact that today is his or her birthday would be perfect for someone who doesn’t want too much attention and rather keeps it casual. There are a lot of shirts that simply hint to the fact that today is his/her special day without being too loud. Other shirts mention the wearer’s age without drawing too much attention when going out. These kinds of shirts can be added to a casual outfit by combining it with a pair of jeans and sneakers.

The Jokster

Some people just like to have fun. For these, a funny birthday shirt with a joke or a cheeky statement would be the perfect gift. The wearer has to be ready to get some attention and laughs when wearing it outside. It can also be a great conversation starter when wearing it on a night out to a club or bar. It can also make a group laugh at a family gathering or a casual get together. If the recipient is known to make some dirty jokes from time to time, a shirt that is a little tongue in cheek would be a great match. He or she will wear it proudly. 

The Professional 

If the look and reputation is important to the recipient and if he/she has to appear more or less professional at all times, a birthday T-Shirt that quietly states that it is his or her birthday would be the best choice. An alternative would be shirts that hint to the wearer’s age without making too much noise. These subtle birthday T-shirts can be worn under a blazer or worn to a pair of slacks even to the office.

The Bold One

Some people like to go all out on their birthdays. They like to be a little louder, appreciate attention and a good party. For the bold one, a louder shirt is a great choice. The birthday shirt could be on point, have a witty saying or quote or a funny joke. It could also animate everyone to have a few drinks. These shirts are very noticeable and sometimes might be considered by some a little inappropriate. The bold recipient however doesn’t care and actually finds these kinds of shirts pretty hilarious.

Birthday Shirt Gift Wrapping Ideas And Care Instructions

After spending some time browsing different birthday shirts and after considering the recipient’s personality and style, you finally found the perfect gift. You know he or she will love her new happy birthday T-Shirt and wear it all day and many days after that. The only thing you still have to figure out is how to wrap the shirt. This is very important since this will be the first impression you will make when handing over the gift on his or her special day. The gift wrapping can also add additional perceived value to the shirt and will make the recipient appreciate the new shirt even more. There are several quick and easy ways to gift-wrap a shirt. You could get some amazing gift-wrap from a store or use self-designed textiles to wrap the shirt. Other options include gift bags or gift boxes. Another way to make your birthday shirt stand out is to decorate the gift with ribbons or confetti. Being creative and putting some thought into the gift wrap will show that you really care about his or her birthday.

Birthday Shirt Care Instructions

Cleaning and washing the birthday shirt is pretty easy and straightforward.
Here are a few tips on how to keep the shirt nice and soft:

• It’s always recommended to read the care instructions that are printed inside the garment. These are written specifically for the shirt and can vary from brand to brand.
• The shirts should be washed on cold or warm and combined with like colors. Woolite Dark Colors Detergent is a great solution to preserve the color of black T-Shirts. The Tide To Go Instant Stain Remover is very helpful for small stains and for mistakes that happen on the go.
• To dry the shirts, you can either hang the shirts or put them on tumble dry low.
• If there is a design printed on the shirt, it’s recommend to iron as little as possible. If ironing is needed, the shirt should be ironed inside out.
• Birthday shirts that have a design printed on cannot be dry cleaned.
• Handle bleach with care, since the chemicals can lead to discolorations.
