looking for t-shirts?

there are lots of t-shirt sites all over the web, but can you find exactly what you want through search engines?

shirt seek and, recently, please dress me are trying to make it easier. both have some good points, both have problems.

* shirt seek was created by paul grzymkowski. you can search a t-shirt using key-words or browsing. the results show the site that is selling it and if you search for something that doesn´t exist, there´s a simple message telling it. the product page shows the sharing buttom and options for rating the t-shirt and making comments.

* please dress me was created by the vaynerchuk brothers, joe stump and chris henslin. it offers other ways of search: using key-words, tags, price and colors. the results shows the price and links for saving it at stumpleupon and facebook or buy the t-shirt. if your key-word have no results, there´s a twitter-like message of fail, with a snail, and it´s kinda cute. the product page, as the results page, don´t show the selling site. you can save it on stumbleupon or tweet it. please dress me offers a widget and if you add it on your site, you can win free t-shirts. it´s a nice way of promoting it.

-> so, which one do you prefer? shirt seek´s simplicity or please dress me and its strong social media?
