Top 2024 Solar Eclipse T-Shirt Designs

About this video

Martinez reviews top-selling Amazon t-shirt designs for the April 8th, 2024 total solar eclipse, noting it is essentially the last day to capture sales but that the concepts teach lessons for evergreen niches. He points to strong sales ranks and ‘bought in past month’ figures on many listings, including a ’twice in a lifetime’ souvenir design showing the 2017 and 2024 eclipse paths that Amazon showed as 3K bought in the past month. Winning angles he highlights include the Earth, Sun and Moon taking a selfie; the Sun ‘getting mooned’; a cat watching the eclipse; a dabbing eclipse; retro groovy lettering with the eclipse standing in for a letter; a teacher design with the Earth, Sun and Moon holding hands; an axolotl wearing eclipse glasses; ‘school’s important, but solar eclipse is importanter’; and a birthday design, ‘my birthday present from the universe.’ He also notes two-sided front-and-back and pocket designs priced around $24.99, and detailed ’tour of America’ souvenir shirts listing states, cities and times. Throughout he explains that a low, fast-falling BSR signals demand and sales velocity, that story-telling and detailed designs make people stop and look, and he warns viewers to double-check trademarks and infringement themselves, because Amazon can remove a design it considers too close even if the seller believes it is fine.

Key takeaways

• Mix a trending event with an already-loved niche — cats, teachers, dabbing, birthdays or an axolotl — to enter a competitive event niche with a fresh angle
• Souvenir-style designs that tell a story, such as showing both the 2017 and 2024 eclipse paths, can sell strongly around a one-time event
• A rapidly falling BSR shortly after a first sale signals real demand and sales velocity worth paying attention to
• Two-sided and pocket designs exist in this niche at higher price points such as $24.99, though printing both sides reduces the royalty on Amazon Merch
• Always do your own trademark and infringement homework before uploading — Amazon may remove a design it judges too close, even if you think it is safe
