I often see t-shirts for sale on the websites of comics that I follow. While I'd like to show some small token of support for these artists I do not like to wear t-shirts with their restrictive collars.

Enter the Polo Conversion Collar. This polo shirt collar is available in a large range of colors. Simply place the conversion collar on the t-shirt of your choice, use a hot iron to permanently bond it to the t-shirt, and make the appropriate trims and cuts to the t-shirt.

Voila - a polo shirt with the artwork provided by the comic illustrator you choose to support.

A search shows there is already some activity in the iron on collar business but nothing too significant.

I can find plenty of iron-on collar stiffeners and lace appliques, as well as the linked repair fabric, but no whole collars. Can you link?

Apparently a kickstarter.com startup 'Threadlab' has some iron on products possibly including a collar but not for your stated purpose. [ link ]

Funny - the not-funded Kickstarter review bemoans the lack of an iron-on hoody option for your dress shirt.

I wonder if any fashionistas are doing the iron-on-y thing.

Maybe gold plated macaroni necklaces.

Or the tie-dye-runny process of inking a great image.
