Slovak Republic-based daily shirt site Loviu contacted us a while ago, but as at that time they had nothing but a “coming soon” page on their website, I decided to skip over them until they officially opened. They are a daily shirt site in the line of Teefury, but skew on the more expensive side. At €12 for the first 24 hours, then €18, they definitely aren’t the cheapest option for those of us on the other side of the pond. However, for European prices, this is pretty good, as I don’t see many Euro brands charging under €18 for their shirts. Shipping is also something to consider, but I’m unable to view any shipping information as a logged-out guest.
Aside from their daily shirt feature, Loviu also has a submission section where users can submit and vote on designs. For those potentially interested in getting printed, here is what you will get:
If we choose your design to be printed as our Today’s Tee or Week’s Tee, you will receive 1Euro from every t-shirt sold from the 24hour or 7 days sale we run on Loviu.com (depending on which sale we assign your design to). If more than 250 tees are sold during either one of these sales, you will receive a bonus of €500 Euros or if 500 tees are sold you will receive another €1,000 Euro bonus (total of €1,500 in bonuses + €1 Euro from every tshirt sold).
Special Contests are rewarded based on individual payout structure of each contest. For more information see the each contest description.
Right now, Loviu is running a grand opening contest that could net the lucky artist a €3,000 grand prize! Runner-ups will receive prizes of €1,000, €500, and €500.
Design-wise, I see a lot of similarities between Loviu and LaFraise, but with a touch of RIPT and Teefury. All of the selections have been pretty good so far — I’ve yet to see a truly HDTGP (“how did that get printed?!”) design. On that note, I wish Loviu had an “archive” page displaying all their past designs. One of the things I like about daily shirt sites is seeing all the designs that get printed, and it’s a shame to let some of these works vanish into obscurity after their time in the limelight.
