The Celtic T-Shirt ShopIRELAND
We have been screen-printing by hand in Lahinch, County Clare, on the West Coast of Ireland, for 32 years now.
We keep a good stock of each garment shown on our website in every design, colour, and size listed, so that we can send out orders quickly (We ship world-wide.)
So that you are completely satisfied with your purchase, we will exchange any item if necessary. This includes wrong sizes, as we understand this is very difficult to get it right over the internet. Please refer to our Size Chart, also check our Guest Book for comments about our Shop / Internet Service.
Our Workshop
We design, print, display, and sell everything in the one shop. This makes it more interesting for visitors and for ourselves; we meet and chat with everyone who comes by, and they see our old-fashioned hand-printing. We welcome inquisitive children and grown-ups too...
Come and see us soon .
Our shop is right on the sea-front, so after you've visited us and finished your shopping, you may enjoy strolling Lahinch's well-known Maritime Promenade. Time it right and you'll and catch a stunning sunset over Liscannor Bay!

Hand-Printing
We work mostly with hand-cut stencils, and meticulously blend colours right on the screen. The close attention given to every print gives a unique appearance to the work, and means that no two are exactly the same.
The inks are cured in a 14 ft infra-red dryer, which leaves them completely wash safe and pre-shrunk.
Customers are always intrigued by our set-up here in the shop, the usual behind-the-scenes work of t-shirt printing is done in plain view for all to see-- to give you an example, you can see from the buttons on the left-hand side of our website the bottles we use to keep our ink in.
Quality
We always work on the best quality garments - the kind of painstaking work that we do would be wasted on anything else!
Here you can see a detail of a print that shows the texture and finish, and the blended colours.
As well as printing our own original Celtic designs we have done countless custom designs and printed t-shirts for local and national businesses, events and individuals.
We would like to thank all of those we have worked with over the past 32 years -- some of the designs that made a mark are commemorated on our news page, offering a walk down memory lane.
the Printers
Six of us currently here have trained in Art Colleges, so we enjoy working to high standards.
Repeat visits from customers with 15-year old shirts tell us that we're doing the right thing .
