A kids t-shirt mockup is a template image of a blank garment onto which sellers and designers composite their artwork digitally. It creates realistic product photos for e-commerce listings without physical samples. This is common practice for print-on-demand sellers on platforms like Etsy, Amazon, and Shopify.
Toddler mockups represent garments in sizes 2T through 5T with shorter torso proportions and smaller print areas, typically around 7.5 x 9 inches. Youth mockups cover sizes XS through XL with larger print areas around 9 x 10 inches. The garment proportions, sleeve length, and overall scale differ between the two categories.
Smart objects are editable layers within a PSD file that act as placeholders for custom designs. When you replace the smart object content with your artwork, the PSD applies the correct perspective, blend mode, and fabric texture automatically. SudoMock's API handles this replacement programmatically, so you send a design image via REST API and receive the rendered mockup back.
Design dimensions depend on the garment size and print provider. For toddler tees, a common print area is 7.5 x 9 inches at 300 DPI, resulting in a 2250 x 2700 pixel file. Youth sizes accommodate roughly 9 x 10 inches. Check your specific print provider's guidelines, as Printful, Printify, and Gelato each have slightly different maximum print areas.
Usage rights depend on the source. SudoMock mockup templates are designed for commercial use through the rendering API or Dashboard. The rendered output images can be used in product listings, advertisements, and marketing materials. Always verify licensing terms with any mockup provider before commercial use.
Several platforms offer free kids t-shirt mockup PSDs, including Freepik, Vecteezy, Graphberry, and Good Mockups. SudoMock provides a free tier with 500 render credits that can be used on kids apparel templates through the API or Dashboard Playground without downloading PSD files directly.
A complete product listing typically benefits from three to six angles. At minimum, include a front view showing the primary design area and a back view for rear print coverage. Adding a detail shot of the collar or fabric texture, a lifestyle image, and a three-quarter pose provides buyers with enough visual information to assess fit and quality. This template includes all six of those views.

This mockup template shows a white cotton blend kids t-shirt on a young South Asian male model photographed in and around a garden terrace setting. The model, a slim man in his late twenties with short dark wavy hair, wears the plain white crewneck t-shirt in a series of six poses. The garden terrace environment features terracotta plant pots, green foliage, wooden outdoor furniture, and natural sunlight throughout. The t-shirt is a standard crewneck with short sleeves and a regular relaxed fit, shown in pure white with no prints, logos, or graphics on the surface.
The first image is a front-centered hero shot. The model faces the camera directly with arms relaxed at his sides. A light gray backdrop panel is visible behind him, with potted plants on either side. Warm golden-hour sunlight enters from the upper left. The full front of the t-shirt is visible, including the ribbed crewneck collar and both sleeves.
The second image shows a front casual pose. The model stands at a slight angle with one hand behind his hip, looking off to the right. A wooden lattice trellis with green ivy is visible to the left, and window-shaped shadows fall on the gray wall behind him. The t-shirt drapes naturally, and the cotton blend fabric shows a smooth, soft texture under studio-style lighting.
The third image is a back view. The model faces away from the camera, turned slightly to his left in profile. The back of the t-shirt is fully visible, showing the shoulder seams, back yoke area, and how the fabric falls across the upper and lower back. Wooden garden chairs and terracotta pots with small shrubs fill the background.
The fourth image is a collar and neckline detail shot. This is a close-up capturing the lower face, neck, and upper chest area. The ribbed crewneck collar construction is clearly visible, along with the shoulder seam stitching. The cotton blend fabric texture is discernible at this magnification. Green foliage is blurred in the background with natural daylight illuminating the skin and fabric.
The fifth image is a lifestyle play shot. The model crouches on a wooden deck terrace, tending to potted tomato and herb plants. He wears the white t-shirt paired with black pants. Late afternoon sunlight backlights the scene, creating a warm golden glow. The t-shirt maintains its shape during the bending and reaching motion, showing how the garment moves during activity.
The sixth image shows a three-quarter active pose. The model stands in front of a wooden garden bench with white flowering shrubs behind him. He has one arm raised and the other on his hip, smiling. The t-shirt is shown from approximately a 45-degree angle, revealing the side seam construction, sleeve length, and how the hem sits at the hip. Black pants are visible below.
The white surface of the t-shirt serves as the design placement zone for SudoMock's rendering engine. When a user submits a design via the API or Dashboard Playground, it composites onto this white area. For cotton blend fabric, Multiply blend mode allows the underlying fabric texture to show through the applied design, producing a realistic printed-on-fabric appearance.
This template is suitable for print-on-demand product listings on platforms such as Etsy, Amazon, and Shopify. The six-angle coverage provides enough variety for a complete product listing. The garden terrace lifestyle context is appropriate for seasonal collections, nature-themed designs, or casual everyday kids apparel marketing. Note: while the model appears to be an adult, the template is categorized for kids t-shirt rendering and the design placement area corresponds to standard youth sizing print areas, typically 7.5 x 9 inches for toddler sizes and 9 x 10 inches for youth sizes according to common transfer placement guides.
