Print Methods

Embroidery

Embroidery uses high-quality threads and precise techniques to embroider intricate logos onto apparel. It is commonly used on our Outdoor Performance Shirts, Performance Polo Shirts, and caps.

Pros

High-quality, professional appearance.

Long-lasting and can withstand frequent wear.

Cons

Some intricate designs may not translate well due to limitations.

Screen Print

Screen printing is the process of pressing ink through a stenciled mesh screen to create a design on a garment. Commonly used for bulk t-shirt and hoodie production.

Pros

Durable and vibrant colors.

Cost-effective for large or bulk orders.

Cons

Not the best option for intricate designs, as each color requires a separate screen set-up, which can increase costs and production time.

Direct-to-Film

Direct-to-film involves transferring a design directly onto the fabric using a unique film. This method is excellent for producing detailed prints with vibrant colors.

Pros

Produces detailed prints cost-effectively.

2-3 week turnaround time.

Cost-effective for small batches.

Cons

It may produce a plastic-like texture on apparel, but this texture will break down after washing.

Direct-to-Garment

Direct-to-garment printing involves using specialized inkjet technology to print high-quality designs directly onto apparel. This method is ideal for printing small batches cost-effectively.

Pros

High-quality, detailed designs printed directly onto apparel.

Professional and durable finish.

Cost-effective for small batches.

Cons

Generally slower compared to other printing methods, which can result in longer production times.
