We mostly print on tshirts, long sleeve, and hoodies but can also print shorts, pants, tote bags, and some jackets. Anything that has one layer of fabric.

DTG is great for low quantity orders (<12 pieces) or small orders with tons of colors. Screen printing is the preferred printing method for most any orders above 40 pieces.

Most screen printers advertise low prices but then charge $25 screen fees for each color in your design, $2.00 mark-up on shirt blanks, 30-50% rush fees, and shipping fees!
