TheVendorMeal

it's the plate they bring out at 6pm, after the toasts, in whatever room isn't being used. sometimes it's good. usually it's chicken.

we started this because the people eating it — photographers, videographers, planners, coordinators, DJs — are the ones who make the day happen and go home unphotographed.

so: shirts for the crew. made in the US, printed when you order, nothing sitting in a warehouse.

frequently asked questions

where are you located?

made in the US. on purpose.

every shirt is printed here — Florida and Texas — because that's where the people who actually make clothes are, and we'd rather they keep doing it.

will i get a tracking number for my order?

yes. once your order ships, you'll get an email with a tracking number. follow it from our printer to your front door.

what materials are your products made of?

comfort colors 1717 heavyweight.

100% ring-spun cotton, garment-dyed, with a broken-in feel from the first wear. relaxed fit, true to size, holds up wash after wash.

Very comfy and heavy duty! i’ve washed it a few times and it hasn’t shrunk at all. Honestly makes it even more soft and cozy after the first wash. The color is just like pictures as well!

Just got the shirt and I wish I knew it runs small in size. I got a medium and it fits like small. If I knew I would have ordered large.

Hi Mohtashim — appreciate the honest feedback, and sorry the medium came up small on you. The Comfort Colors 1717 runs boxy and relaxed, but it can still fit closer than expected if you're between sizes. We've reached out directly to get you into a large — check your inbox.

I felt the logo was too small. I also think it was put on crooked. Not sure if it’s an iron-on or screen printed. People had to come close to read it. Shirt felt nice and soft but fear the logo will fade in time. Disappointed.

Thanks for this, Dinocean — the fit note means a lot, that's the Comfort Colors 1717 doing its job.

On the logo: the small scale is deliberate. The whole line is built on quiet recognition — the people who get it tend to be standing close enough to read it, and that's sort of the point. Fair criticism if it didn't land for you, though, and we hear it.

On fade: garment-dyed cotton with DTG holds up well when it's washed cold and dried low — turning it inside out helps too. If it ever fades in a way that feels wrong, email hello@thevendormeal.co and we'll make it right.

Thank you!

Super cozy shirt and I love wearing it while editing! The font is a little small but it’s subtle and very soft comfy shirt :)
Highly recommend! Would buy again!

I really liked that the wording on this shirt was small and understated. Also, they are printing onto Comfort Colors which are high quality tees.

Hi Steve! Thank you for the kind words — glad the details came through. Comfort Colors was a deliberate call for exactly that reason: they hold up. Appreciate you taking the time to leave this!
