CUSTOM TEES

Across Jersey City, a handful of shops still carve out space for shirts you can’t find anywhere else. Custom Tees sits on Mall Drive West, just where the mall meets the residential edge, a straightforward stop for clothing that feels like yours. Head to 30 Mall Dr W and dial (510) 929-0011 to confirm what’s on the shelf or to ask about sizes before you make the trip.

Beyond staples, the store crafts everything from graphic tees to company uniforms, all cut to order. Pick a design, pick a color, pick the neckline—then watch it become one item instead of another look-alike. Before you leave, pull up the map to plot the quickest route back to the highway.
