Our Cows Corner Story

Hi! I’m Len. A sports-mad dad and I love a good laugh. A while back, I tried to send a funny cricket t-shirt gift to a mate, but what turned up was really disappointing. The quality was rubbish, the design started to peel on day one, and it didn’t feel special at all. That moment sparked Cows Corner, a place for brilliant, funny sports gifts you’d actually be proud to send, with unique designs, quality products and unmatched prints our products are the best around, I what I was hoping for originally. I hope our products bring a smile, a laugh, and a bit of heartfelt joy to whoever receives them.

About This item

  • Relaxed Fit - Designed for all-day comfort, this T-shirt features a relaxed fit that provides ample room without feeling oversized. Whether you're wearing it for casual outings, lounging at home, or layering it under outerwear, the relaxed cut ensures unrestricted movement and breathability. The fit is carefully tailored to flatter various body types while maintaining a laid-back, effortless style.
  • PurePrint Fabric – The Ultimate Surface for Decoration - Made using innovative PurePrint fabric, this T-shirt offers an exceptional surface for decoration, making it the ideal choice for custom prints and branding. The fabric's smooth, high-quality texture ensures sharp, long-lasting designs. PurePrint fabric enhances color vibrancy, allowing logos, graphics, and text to stand out with crisp detail and professional appeal.
  • Ribbed Crew Neck - A classic ribbed crew neck adds durability and comfort to the design, ensuring a snug yet flexible fit. The ribbed texture provides elasticity, helping the neckline maintain its shape even after repeated washes and wear. This timeless design feature complements both casual and activewear looks, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe.
  • Taped Back Neck - The taped back neck enhances the T-shirt's durability by reinforcing the seam for added strength and longevity. This feature not only prevents stretching but also provides extra comfort by reducing friction against the skin. The smooth, structured finish contributes to a polished look, making it perfect for everyday wear.
  • Twin Needle Stitching - Precision-made with twin needle stitching, this T-shirt is built for durability. The double stitching technique reinforces seams, ensuring they hold up to regular use and washing without fraying or weakening. This meticulous construction method enhances both the longevity and overall quality of the piece.
  • Side Seams for Shape Retention - Designed to maintain its structure over time, this T-shirt incorporates side seams that prevent twisting or losing its shape. Unlike tubular construction, side seams help the T-shirt conform to the body while retaining its original fit, ensuring a consistently flattering silhouette even after multiple washes.
  • Wash Dark Colours Separately - To preserve the rich, deep tones of darker T-shirts, it is recommended to wash them separately from lighter items. This precaution helps prevent color bleeding and maintains the integrity of both the T-shirt and surrounding clothing. Following care instructions ensures longevity, keeping the fabric looking fresh and vibrant for longer.
