BabbleTees began five years ago after our collective interests in Fine Art, Graphic Design, industrial processes, and computer technology came together into the overgrown arts & crafts project that is our t-shirt company - BabbleTees. Since then we’ve built a large collection of creative, quirky, witty and unique t-shirts that are designed, produced and managed by three friends (scroll down to check out our bios) in North-Central Illinois. Every design that we stock is produced by hand in our fully rehabbed former mid-20th Century bank building with love, copious amounts of caffeine and help from our magical woodland friends.

We started selling shirts on eBay five years ago, carving out our own niche amongst the vast sea of predictable t-shirt shops on eBay and the Internet. BabbleTees pioneered the ‘science-geek-chic’ look and has sold thousands (and counting!) of shirts to fellow t-shirt connoisseurs across the country and to every party of the world. We love our customers and want to provide them with an AWESOME customer service experience so that they go happily babbling to everyone about our idiosyncratic and addictive BabbleTees.

Design

Most of the graphic t-shirts on our site are designed by our sister company - Isotope Shirts. Maps, scientific illustrations, diagrams, vintage schematics, all things transit, foreign languages, geometric shapes and asymmetric forms inspire most of their designs. Isotope Shirts is constantly pushing the artistic limits of screen-print and amalgamating new forms into wearable art. We have t-shirts for any taste! Along with elaborate multi-colored and large-format prints, BabbleTees balances our selection with simple graphic & minimal prints. These designs are an often-welcome break from the hyperactive and visually loud ‘bling-bling’ artwork designs coming from the mainstream. Less can be so much more when it comes to fashion! Stand out of the crowd by wearing some of our minimal designs. We’ve also resurrected a few defunct and esoteric pop-culture icons to add to our vast selection of shirt options.

Charity & the Environment

BabbleTees loves helping others and our environment. We proudly participate in eBay’s Giving Works Charity program, which donates $5 of the shirt cost to a great charitable cause. Not only will you get some good karma from purchasing a shirt from our Charity collection, you’ll get a beautiful t-shirt produced by caring people that showcase the cause. We only use soy-based chemicals in our shop and recycle 85% of all production waste and 100% of all office materials. We love our environment and practice sustainable practices whenever possible.
