My little sister and I decided to run the Mother’s Day Classic 8 kilometre race earlier this year to raise money in support of our Dad’s wife, who is affected by breast cancer. We reached our goal, and it was a lovely thing for us to do together in support of someone special in our lives. As we were planning for the run, we decided we wanted to have special matchy-matchy T-Shirts. There are a lot of different places online you can design your own T Shirts with text, but I found that most of them were just the regular cotton type of material, and not ideal for sports/running. It took me a long time to find something suitable, and eventually we found these singlets. I thought I might share here in case there are others looking for actual sport shirts (not just t-shirts). There something I would note: Many companies who design T-Shirts sell the same sort of base shirt (so they source the shirts in bulk from the same company). I looked at both Vistaprint and CafePress and their ranges are very limited.
After hours of online research, I came across TShirtPlus and found they had a really good range of T-Shirts, including dedicated sports apparel. My sister and I ended up buying the Women’s Razor Singlet that comes in 9 different colours and you can print words on the front and back. This one is under $30 so it was affordable, and I found them true to size, and the quality great. Perfect for running!

What it looks like
If you like the regular T-Shirt with sleeves, this type of shirt also comes in the style below: Women’s Sprint Tee.
Those are the two cheaper (but good quality) options I found.
This company also sell high performance apparel if that is what you’re looking for (cost around $80-100)
Race Day
We loved training, wearing matching shirts and running together. It really was very special. We were really happy with the shirts; they were cool and comfortable.
