10 NEW Etsy Print on Demand Niches Q2 2026 (Trending With Proof)
About this video
Martinez presents 10 Etsy print-on-demand niche groupings he says are validated with demand, using the EverBee tool to judge listing age against views, sales and conversion rate rather than guessing. The niches are: blue collar (construction worker wife, HVAC tech, lineman wife), mental health and therapy, anxiety, cozy/introvert gamer, backyard chicken and homestead/farm, Pilates / hot girl walk / soft fitness, corporate burnout and 9-to-5 humor, retro evergreen dad shirts, manifest and angel numbers, and local pride / small-town and custom town-name shirts. He flags fast movers as proof signals, citing as creator-shown examples a ’licensed listener’ therapy shirt with 10 sales in one month on nearly 2,500 views, a gamer cat/dinosaur design with 260 sales in four months, a chicken design he says made 100 sales in a month and over $1,000 a month, and a custom-text shirt with 257 sales in eight months. Recurring patterns he notes include geese and frogs across therapy, anxiety and office humor, simple text sayings, and reusable concepts such as swapping the activity in ‘I do Pilates and spend money’ or swapping dog breeds, towns and states. He repeatedly warns to double-check trademarks and copyrights.
Key takeaways
- Validate with EverBee: high sales or views in a short listing age - e.g. 10 sales in 1 month - is presented as the key demand signal.
- Blue collar sub-niches he highlights include construction, HVAC tech (‘I control the climate’) and lineman wife designs showing the worker on the pole.
- Therapy, anxiety and corporate-burnout humor rely on simple sarcastic sayings plus animals, especially geese and frogs, according to the listings shown.
- Homestead/chicken, Pilates/hot girl walk, cozy gamer and retro dad shirts are framed as evergreen niches where one proven saying can be remixed across breeds, activities or family roles.
- Local pride and custom-text designs scale by changing one word - town, state or custom name - with one custom-text example cited at 257 sales in 8 months.
