Frequently Asked Questions

QUESTIONS ABOUT OUR T-SHIRT FRAMES

Why Use Shart?

Shart is best designed, highest quality, simplest tee shirt framing system in the Universe.

 
We build the highest quality frames and couple them with our Patented, engineer-designed foam insert to create the best t-shirt frame that can be made.  

Please take the time to compare our product to some of our competition and we feel confident you'll agree that there is no better shirt frame on the market.

Shart T-Shirt Frames have real glass, an elegant black gesso finish and include our patented foam insert that protects, preserves and keeps your tees safe.

Is it really that easy?

Watch the :30 Second Video and Decide for Yourself.

Will Shart work with the graphic artwork on EVERY T-Shirt?

No, please see the next question.

How do I measure to see if my T-shirt's graphic artwork will fit in the frame?

Sharts can be displayed either vertically or horizontally.

The viewable space or display area of our tee shirt frames is 13.5" x 10.5" (PORTRAIT) OR 10.5" x 13.5" (LANDSCAPE).

Measure the graphic artwork you intend to display to be sure it will fit into the viewable space of our frames.

If the artwork is larger than these dimensions, you will not see the entire graphic displayed when you frame your shirt.

The viewable space or display area of our tee shirt frames is 13.5

Will Shart work with any size T-Shirt?

No.

Our t-shirt frames are designed to work best with Youth Medium to any Adult Size T-shirts. They do not work for most Youth Smalls.

Shart T-Shirt Frames have a viewable space of 13.5 inches by 10.5 inches

Will Shart work with Sports Jerseys?

Yes, but please keep in mind that the viewable space of our frames is 10.5" x 13.5". If the portion of your jersey you wish to display is larger than the viewable space, you will NOT be able to see everything you wish to display. Please watch this video for a detailed explanation before purchasing.

Will Shart work with sweatshirts and hoodies?

 

Unfortunately, I probably wouldn’t recommend one of our frames for a hoodie. I’m not saying it won’t work, but I don’t think it would look as clean as it does with a tee shirt.

 

This is what I tell people when they ask about sweatshirts.

 

We have had sweatshirts work in our frames, but they have to be smaller, thinner sweatshirts and you have to carefully fold the arms and remaining sweatshirt material into the back of the frame in order for it all too fit. If it is a large, thick sweatshirt, I don’t think there would be enough room between the insert and the back of the frame. If it’s too thick, you could cut off the sleeves to make more room, but that defeats one of the purposes of our frame…to keep your clothing intact.

 

Sorry I can’t be more definitive but it’s hard to say without having it in front of me.

Will Shart work with polo-style shirts?

Yes. The one in the photo below is a 2XL.

 

The look of the polo shirt in our frames is not quite as clean as a tee shirt because of the collar and buttons but if you take your time when you’re putting it together, you can get it all pretty even. The one in the photo took me about 3 minutes total.

Can I frame my shirt Horizontally OR Vertically?

Yes. Our frames come with 2 pre-Installed sawtooth hangers so you can hang your Shart Horizontally (Landscape) or Vertically (Portrait)

No. Our patented polyethylene foam insert protects and preserves your favorite tee shirt. No Scissors or Cutting!

Are there discounts if I buy in bulk?

 

Yes. We sell 4 and 10-Packs. If you are interested in purchasing 20 or more frames, please email us at info@shart.com.

Why do you use polyethylene for the foam insert?

We use closed-cell, non-crosslinked polyethylene foam for our insert because it is completely recyclable, acid-free, ideal for conservation purposes and has a proven performance record in Museums and Galleries. Polyethylene is non-dusting, non-toxic, odorless and resists mildew. The polyethylene in Shart is recommended by the Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections, the Smithsonian, the Museums and Galleries Commission and the Natural History Museum.

Our packaging has been engineered to provide the best protection for our frames while using the smallest amount of packaging materials as possible. Our boxing is plain brown cardboard as opposed to the bleach white packaging that adds bleach and dye waste to the environment. We also try to reuse any cardboard materials that come to us on freight lines. Please join us in helping the Earth by recycling your packaging material once you have received your frame.
