Question about SEOing URL's

Hello,

I have a question about SEOing urls.

I am selling products that are very similar on my site and am unsure if i am configuring the urls correctly.

For example if i am selling t-shirts, is it okay to have my urls be

xyz.com/shirt-1/
xyz.com/shirt-2/
xyz.com/shirt-3/
etc. as opposed to

xyz.com/blue-shirt/
xyz.com/green-shirt/
xyz.com/red-shirt/

i am targeting a small niche, so for the previous example the only relevant search terms are for shirt and not for blue shirt, green shirt, red shirt etc.

so i guess my real question is does it matter if you have the same urls for your products with just add a number at the end of them?

thanks

      Wouldn't searchers look for "blue shirts" "green shirts" and not "shirt1" and "shirt2"?

    I think this would be better & more detailed to help pick up new longtail keywords in the SERPs.

    xyz.com/blue-shirt-small-s/
    xyz.com/blue-shirt-medium-m/
    xyz.com/blue-shirt-large-l/
    xyz.com/blue-shirt-extra-large-xl/

    While blue shirt, red shirt, green shirt might not be your targeted phrases, they surely offer more traffic potential than shirt1, shirt2, shirt3.
