Almost a default option for people in promotions is the sale of T-Shirts, with a logo or a band or whatever is being promoted on the front and or back. However another catchy trend is creating shirt’s with gimmicky pictures, phrases, or comment’s on.
Coming up with something original is the largest issue here, as there is such a large market it can become difficult getting something that is new and different and that people want. However once you do have something it can become quite popular if it is in a small niche, or it is something that people have not seen before.
One of the best options is to link it in with something else, for example, some online options i have seen is people will have an online comic and then create shirts in relation to different characters. Or in the same strain shirts based on funny quips by characters. Other interesting options have been quirky changes of common phrases slightly.
The most profitable way to do this is trying to create the most demand as soon as possible to support printing larger runs of shirts. Because the more you have to pay to get a shirt printed the more you need to charge or the less you make. Where as if you can print 50 or 100 at a time, you can save a good amount on each one and either sell at a lower price or make a higher profit. This all needs to be taken into account to what you would like to make in comparision to what the market will pay. So at the end of the day some trial and error may be involved. But as long as you know you cost, and it is not to high you should be able to make the sales.
