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.

Pros
High-quality, detailed designs printed directly onto apparel.
Professional and durable finish.
