1. Choosing a Printing Method
The printing method you choose affects cost, durability, and how your design looks up close. Screen printing is the most cost-effective option for bulk orders using one to a few solid colors. DTF and DTG printing handle full-color, photo-realistic designs with ease, and are ideal for smaller runs since there's no setup cost. Embroidery is best for logos on polos and caps where a premium, textured finish matters.
If you're unsure, describe your design and quantity to our team — we'll recommend the most cost-effective method for your specific project.
2. Picking the Right Fabric
100% cotton is soft, breathable, and takes screen print ink beautifully — it's the standard choice for everyday custom tees. Cotton-poly blends resist shrinking and are more durable for workwear and uniforms. Performance polyester is moisture-wicking and suited to sports jerseys and sublimation printing.
3. Preparing Your Design
High-resolution artwork makes a huge difference in the final print quality. Aim for at least 300 DPI at the intended print size, and supply vector files (AI, EPS, PDF) where possible for the sharpest results. If you only have a low-resolution logo, let us know — our design team can often recreate it as a clean vector.
4. Getting Sizing Right
For team and bulk orders, always request a size chart or sample garment before committing to a full print run. Mixing sizes within one order is completely normal, and we can print the same design across youth through 5XL sizing.
5. Placing Your Order
Once you've settled on a method, fabric, and design, submit a quote request with your quantity and deadline. We typically respond within one business day with a detailed, itemized price — no hidden charges, no surprises at checkout.
