Sporty Fonts

One thing that never goes out of fashion is sports. This will likely always be true, and so choosing a sporty design for your t-shirt is a pretty safe bet. There are loads of fun ways you could use these fonts to make personalised t-shirts, and you could design football jerseys, baseball jerseys, shirts based on team logos, and more. Here are some cool fonts for sporty t-shirts:

Gingerly

This smooth cursive font would be perfect for typing someone’s name on the back of a sports jersey. It’s got thick lines that make the letters stand out, and is both elegant and charming, without losing any masculinity. It would be the perfect unisex font for a baseball t-shirt.

Sports

Aptly named ‘Sports’, this is a bold, font that will really make your design stand out. Containing both uppercase and lowercase letters, Sports is extremely versatile. This is a perfect font for t-shirt printing because it’s so thick and easy to read. This font would work particularly well for football themed shirts.

Sports Champs

This font is somewhat similar to the above font, but has shorter serifs on the letters, and uses diagonal straight lines for round letters instead of curved lines. One of the coolest things about this font is that it’s adaptable to different sports. It contains detail variations to make the letters look like a specific type of ball.

Soccer Dad

This unique font uses soccer balls to build up the shapes of the letters! Perfect for more quirky t-shirt designs, these letters would work better in a larger size so you could easily see the details. Soccer Dad would work well for a soccer themed shirt for a younger child or a parent who takes their kid to practice.

Login

This bold, chunky font is not technically designed to be used for sports, but would work really well with the theme. It contains the familiar stylised lettering, but without the serifs that are common in other sports fonts. If you’re looking for a sans-serif font with the blockiness of a sports font for your t-shirt, then this is the one for you.

Football

This is a bold serif design with a twist. The letters are thick and large, but the coolest thing about this font is the design inside the letters. They are patterned to look like an actual football. This would work well for a football themed t-shirt or jersey.

Moraline

This gorgeous sans-serif font is perfect for baseball jerseys. Its elegant cursive style lettering is thick and bold, and really works for the baseball theme. The letter strokes are longer than many other cursive fonts, and really make Moraline stand out from the crowd.

Baseball Stitch

This fun and unique font is based on the iconic stitch pattern that you find on a baseball. This is a thin, all-caps font that would work well in conjunction with a bolder font. It would be really good for adding a little visual differentiation to a standard sports t-shirt.

Dustland

This vintage style font evokes strong baseball connotations, without looking too cliché. The varying thicknesses of the strokes are great for creating variation, and it makes the font really stand out. Dustland would work really well for a baseball themed t-shirt.

Baseball

This bold, chunky font is excellent for t-shirt design. It has barely noticeable serifs on the letters, making it the perfect middle ground between a serif and sans-serif font. As well as this, the letters have a quirky baseball stitch inside them, to really give that sporty vibe.

Empirez

This professional looking serif font is bold and chunky, really conveying a masculine sports vibe. The letters are well-designed and elegant, and look as though they could be used by a professional sports team. This font is sure to take your t-shirt designs to the next level.

Debrosee

Debrosee is a cool font that gives off sports vibes without following the familiar style. Many of the other sports fonts have similar features, but this one uses lines and curves to build up a sporty feel without the usual blockiness. This very elegant font would work beautifully on a t-shirt.

Display Fonts

Display fonts are large and bold, and are meant to draw the eye of the person viewing them. As such, they work very well for t-shirt designs with only a few words, as they’ll take up space on the shirt without it looking empty or forced. Display fonts are meant to be decorative, and the font choice is as much a part of the design as the words themselves. Here are some excellent examples of cool fonts for t-shirts:

Afrah

This professional serif font will bring a level of class to your t-shirt designs. The all-caps nature of the lettering is a bold choice, and really makes the words stand out, whilst the differing stroke thicknesses mean the elegant serifs have a chance to shine as the main attraction.

This quirky graffiti style font is ideal if you’re looking for something that will really pop on a t-shirt. The thick, bubble style letters are fun and eye-catching. This font would look amazing on a design for a child or teenager, and could work in a range of contexts.

This futuristic display font is excellent for t-shirt designs with a Sci-fi edge to them. The consistent thickness of the letters really allows the words to shine, and the shapes are uniform whilst still having an iconic feel to them. This font would work amazingly on a gaming t-shirt.

Lastica

This elegant, professional font is perfect for all manner of t-shirt designs. The lines are uniform and steady, as well as being bold and relatively thick. This means the letters stand out, and the lack of variation in the strokes means that this font would work well for most projects as the typeface is unassuming.

Tombstone

This unique font has each letter designed to look like a tombstone. That means when you put the letters together it looks almost like a graveyard. There are two different styles of tombstone design per letter, so you can make sure there’s enough variation in your t-shirt design.

Pumpkin Patch

This quirky font is an adorable alternative to a spooky font if you’re designing a Halloween t-shirt. The letters have a simple, charming form with different thicknesses of brush strokes, but the best thing about this font is that the letters are designed to remind you of a pumpkin patch. Several of the letters have leaves and sprouts, and the ‘o’s are actually shaped like a pumpkin.
