In this past Tuesday’s tutorial, we walked through how quick and easy it is to create your own tshirt mockup in Photoshop. Sometimes time can get pretty short, though, and if you’re in a pinch for a nice mockup, luckily there are a bunch of apparel mockup resources peppered into the internet 🙂 This week I’m sharing a roundup of 5 free apparel mockups – (yep, free!) so you can get your mockup on in no time. Extra bonus: many of these sites have plenty of other kinds of mockups, too! Links and preview images below! 👇

One of the most common types of Photoshop mockups is apparel mockups – most specifically, tshirts. And it makes sense – there are plenty of cool tshirt companies out there who need to quickly show their designs off in a consistent fashion, and photographing each shirt when there are dozens can be very time consuming. Enter the tshirt mockup – one photoshop file that allows you to change the design of the tshirt in just a couple of quick clicks. Setting up the file is actually much simpler than you might think, and in this week’s tutorial, we set one up, step by step in just a few minutes. See the full method of creating your own Photoshop tshirt mockup below!

We may not be fashion designers, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a place for graphic designers with apparel design. At some point in time, the majority of graphic designers have to mock up some kind of apparel to get quoted and executed by a manufacturer. It’s no surprise why – as branding experts, we need to be able to carry a brand through a variety of applications, and especially at events, apparel is key.

I’m currently working on some clothing designs for a company that will be at the 2016 Rio Summer Olympics. They’re in the process of finding a manufacturer for their clothing and had asked for mockups to present to potential manufacturers to get accurate quotes. They sent a few pictures of styles of clothing they were interested in, all at different sizes and resolutions. To keep the focus on the design of the clothing and keep everything similar, I redrew the clothing in Illustrator, then implemented the vector graphics on top.  Having redrawn it in illustrator, all the clothing was kept consistent look-wise and the manufacturers were quickly able to see which panels would be printed with design or kept the base color. In this week’s tutorial, I’ll share my exact process for executing a vector t-shirt mockup and also give away 2 free vector t-shirt mockup files!
