Below are the top recommended niches to focus on, this holiday season:

Family Related

Christmas is the time of the year when family gets together, exchange gifts, and say how much they care for each other: and how better to say it than through a piece of apparel?

You can design hoodies for all family members: grandparents, parents, uncles, siblings… Just don’t forget, if you’re selling a “grandpa” item, you’re actually targeting the son/grandson who will buy the actual gift! Here are a few ideas:

Comical Sweaters

Ugly sweater contests have been in tradition for decades, but that doesn’t mean that your apparel has to be an eyesore to look at. Nowadays, funny and comical sweaters appear to be on the rise, especially among parents and Millennials:

Puns / References

Pop culture is the perfect resource for you to gather inspiration and ideas from. From movie and song references to related puns, everyone in your audience can get a good laugh from this type of designs – don’t forget to be careful with copyright infringements!

Decorative

If you take a look outside during the month of December, you’ll notice an abundance of lights and decorations, and people love to dress up to match them:

A Further Look…

Christmas is a time for endless possibilities, and the same can be said for your merch designs! Even if you’re not looking to stay up-to-date with modern trends, that’s totally fine, we’ve got you covered with a list of alternative ideas:

Santa Clause
Snowmen
Reindeers
Naughty / Nice Jokes
Presents
Elves
