This custom boyfriend shirt puts his face front and center: a personalized bootleg rap tee with BE MY in chrome across the top, VALENTINE across the bottom, his first name in script, and a pile of your photos of him in between.
He’ll act embarrassed and then wear it to every game night.
What’s printed on this custom boyfriend shirt?
Read it from the collar down. BE MY comes first, in big beveled chrome letters with a sparkle finish. Below that sits a collage of six or seven pictures of him, packed inside a glittery cloud like an old 90s rap tee.
His first name runs in a single script line right above the bottom word, and VALENTINE closes it out in the same chrome as the top.
The guy in the samples, with his red hoodie and heart balloons, is a placeholder. Once you upload, every frame is your boyfriend. The design color sets the chrome and sparkle, and there are 15 to pick from.
Silver and bronze read like a classic bootleg boyfriend tee, while teal or ice blue feel more playful.
Making his shirt, start to finish
- Choose what he’ll wear. A tee, long sleeve, crewneck or hoodie in the size he normally buys.
- Choose two colors. The shirt color, plus one of the 15 design colorways for the lettering.
- Upload 3 to 8 photos of him. Keep his face clear in most of them and mix close-ups with wider shots. Original files beat screenshots.
- Type his first name. Spell it exactly as it should print in the script line.
Why his own face beats another cologne set
- Gifts for him come down to cologne, socks or a watch he won’t wear
- Guys say they don’t want anything for Valentine’s Day
- The funniest photos of him only ever live in your phone
Guys act embarrassed by attention and then quietly enjoy every second of it. BE MY in beveled chrome tops a glittery cloud of six or seven pictures of him, with his first name in script right above VALENTINE at the bottom.
A finished order might look like this: T-shirt, size L, design color 8, six uploaded photos, name typed as Owen. The sample photos are swapped out for yours before printing.
Who usually orders a shirt for boyfriend?
The usual buyer is a girlfriend with a camera roll that’s mostly him, shopping a couple of weeks before February 14. She’s done with cologne sets and wants a gift that gets a laugh out of him and his friends.
It’s a Valentine’s gift that isn’t another cologne set, and he’ll pretend to hate it before wearing it out.
Buying his own face as a bit for February 14 works because nobody sees it coming.
Hers covered in him, his covered in her, so the dinner photo does all the talking.
If they want to roast him at the Valentine’s week hangout, a shirt full of his selfies does it without a speech.

Questions about this boyfriend tee
Can I put a famous athlete or his favorite team logo next to him?
No. We don’t print celebrities, rappers, athletes or other public figures, and we skip logos, brand names, team marks and cartoon or movie characters. Upload only photos you took or have permission to use. Orders built on that content get canceled and fully refunded.
How many photos should I upload?
Between 3 and 8. The layout holds six or seven comfortably, so sending that many gives the collage the fullest look. Clear faces and a mix of near and far shots work best.
Can I write a nickname instead of his real name?
Yes. Whatever you type in the name box prints in the script line, so a nickname is fine. Shorter names print a little larger.
What if something arrives misprinted?
Photograph the problem and send it within 15 days of delivery for a replacement or a refund. Size and color picks can’t be exchanged, since each shirt is made to order.
