Top 5 Print on Demand T Shirt Niche Research Ideas 2022 #10 Merch by Amazon | Low Competition Niches

About this video

The creator presents five print-on-demand niche ideas found with Merch Informer’s Movers and Shakers and Merch Hunter features. First is axolotls, described as a newer, less crowded niche needing custom illustrations, with sellers mixing the animal with space, ramen and anime, retro gaming, and holidays; he also flags a keyword phrase he says has search demand but no shirt result yet. Second is alligators, aimed mainly at young children, built on puns, birthday ages, and holiday versions, with caution around college-team associations. Third is popular cities, using retro skyline designs plus what each city is known for, such as food, music, sports in general terms, or Pride events. Fourth is boxing, including women and girls, coaches, heritage angles, animals boxing, and holiday twists, extendable to other martial arts. Fifth is 1990s hip-hop, where simple text, boomboxes, cassettes, and retro birthday ideas work, but the creator warns strongly against using famous artists’ names or likenesses. He says a standout design in a niche could, in his claim, earn a few hundred dollars a month, and repeats that working ahead and checking trademarks are essential.

Key takeaways

  • In newer niches like axolotls, custom illustration and early mixes with ramen, anime, space, or holidays can help a seller rank before competition grows
  • Keyword research can reveal phrases shoppers search for that have no matching shirt yet, creating a first-mover opportunity
  • Alligator and city niches scale by swapping in ages, holidays, local foods, skylines, and city-specific themes
  • Boxing can be differentiated with audience, heritage, animal, or holiday twists, and extended to Muay Thai, karate, kung fu, and other martial arts
  • Avoid infringing designs in music and sports niches, especially artist names and team references, and double-check trademarks on Google and in Merch Informer
