Does anyone know how to make a new t-shirt look retro? Kind of like this:



See how the graphic looks faded? How can I get that look with a new shirt?

looks like the graphic was designed to look faded. You might try taking a graphic into photoshop and reworking it to look faded, then print it out on an iron-on sheet. Iron-ons always look faded and have that unique vintage look anyways.

You might try pre-aging the shirt before you iron on the graphic.
