About Fou Tees
Crazy About Custom
Fou Tees is a proudly local business based in Donegal Town, Co. Donegal, and we’ve been making people smile since March 2011. Our mission has always been simple: offer high-quality personalised products at fair prices, with top-notch service that keeps customers coming back.
Our name – Fou Tees (pronounced Foo Tees) – comes from the French word “fou”, meaning crazy, and of course tees, short for T-shirts. So yes, we’re proudly all about crazy T-shirts – and so much more.
Our original mascot, Fou, inspired not only our name but also our playful logo and spirit. Fou passed away in 2012, but his memory lives on in everything we do – creative, bold, and a little bit mad (in the best way).
At Fou Tees, you’ll find:
- Personalised gifts for every occasion – birthdays, weddings, baby showers, and “just because” surprises
- Custom tees and hoodies – including hen & stag groups, sports teams, and events
- A huge range of unique, in-stock products – updated often with fresh designs
