How to Create 2D Clothing on Roblox
2D clothing on Roblox includes classic shirts, pants, and T-shirts designed using flat image templates. This type of clothing is the easiest way for beginners to start creating custom outfits and selling them in the Avatar Shop. To upload and sell shirts or pants, Roblox Premium is required.
Types of 2D Clothing
Roblox supports several categories of 2D clothing:
- T-Shirts β simple front-image graphics.
- Shirts β full torso, sleeves, and back designs using a template.
- Pants β full lower-body clothing created from a template.
All 2D clothing wraps around the avatar using Robloxβs flat texture system.
Downloading Official Templates
To create shirts and pants, you must use the official Roblox templates:
- Go to the Roblox Create page.
- Select Shirts or Pants.
- Download the provided PNG template.
The template includes labeled sections for the torso, arms, and legs.
Designing 2D Clothing
You can use any image editor to design 2D clothing, such as:
- Photoshop;
- GIMP;
- Paint.NET;
- Krita;
- online editors supporting PNG files.
Important design tips:
- Work inside the template boundaries.
- Use clean lines for accurate alignment.
- Keep colors consistent across all panels.
- Save your file as a high-quality PNG.
This ensures your clothing fits correctly on avatar models.
Creating T-Shirts
T-Shirts use a single square image placed on the front of the torso. They are the simplest type of 2D clothing.
- Create a square PNG with your design.

Shirts and pants require Premium to upload; T-shirts do not, but selling them still requires Premium.
Setting Up Clothing for Sale
After uploading your item:
- Open the item on the Create page.
- Enable Item for Sale.
- Set your price in Robux.

Your design will appear in the Avatar Shop once approved by moderation.
Common Mistakes in 2D Clothing Design
