Iam considering two situations at hand; (1) if they were born blind or (2) if they became blind because of some circumstances. In the second situation; it may be very simple to convince the customer that the shirt is blue because he might have worn several before they bacame blind BUT in the first situation; it is truly hard to convince, may be i would concentrate on the attributes, quality, durability, deftness, affordability of the shirt because customers buy (shirts) in this case for several reasons like i have mentioned above; so if a customer has only "color" as their reason to buy, then concentrate on the rest where you feel the competitive advantage of you shirt is thus you never know they may be delighted with the others strengths of the product hence making up their mind to take the product.Thanx for the invitation

I would suggest the following  Key points:

1.      Use other senses, such as touch, smell, or sound. More

2.      Compare color to emotions.

3.      Consider the nature of the person's visual impairment.

4.      If the person wasn't blind since birth, describe things that they remember.

 

5.      Consider whether or not the person has color blind

Thanks for invitation. 

If the blind person became blind after s/he was born, you can simply refer to the sky or water from a distance, if s/he had seen that. But if s/he is born-blind who has never seen any color, then you may describe the attributes of color blue. But s/he may only apprehend what s/he perceives.
