How to Choose the Right Drinking Event Shirts
Whatever kind of bar crawl you're planning—low-key dive crawl, full-on block takeover, or a classy cocktail soiree—your drinking event shirts should be:
- Comfortable: You’ll be in these for hours, possibly dancing or spilling something—go soft, breathable, and fitted just right.
- Recognizable: Matching shirts help your crew stay together (especially if you're six drinks deep and distracted by karaoke).
- Conversation-starting: The best party t-shirts earn laughs and maybe flirty compliments from bar neighbors.
- Instagram-worthy: Let’s be honest, if your shirt doesn’t look good in the squad pic, it’s not making the cut.
Why Barcrawl Shirts Take Your Night Out to the Next Level
Besides giving you squad goals on steroids, themed shirts help set the tone early. From frat house flair to elegant drinking statements, your outfit does half the talking. When everyone matches (or mixes and matches within a theme), it says one thing: this group came to party.
If you're planning a birthday bash, a graduation celebration, or just a bar crawl because ... Thursday, then rocking coordinated shirts brings the chase-the-vibes energy and shows the world you're here to drink and dominate the dance floor.
Tips for Pulling Off the Perfect Bar Crawl Look
- Coordinate colors: You don't all need to wear the same design. Match themes or choose a specific shirt color so you pop in group photos.
- Add accessories: Think funky sunglasses, cowboy hats, glow necklaces—whatever suits the crawl!
- Personalize: Some groups like to add nicknames or numbers team-jersey-style to the back of their barcrawl shirts for extra laughs.
- Pack extras: Spills happen. Someone always forgets theirs. A backup tee could save the night.
Final Pour – Make Your Crawl Legendary
Matching barcrawl shirts aren’t just about looking good (although, yeah, you will). They’re about building memories, inside jokes, and moments that turn random bar stops into epic chronicles. Whether you’re rolling deep with your college crew or keeping it tight with a trio of troublemakers, the right t-shirts make the night unforgettable—and totally Instagrammable.
