Printing is charged on top of the garment and depends on the method, how many positions you print, and how many colours are in the artwork. The studio quotes the two together, calculated on our server. How the bands work.

Garment care

Spot clean only. Do not machine wash. Do not tumble dry. Air dry away from direct heat.

Care once printed

Wash inside out, cold, on a gentle cycle. Tumble dry low or hang to dry. Do not iron directly on the printed area, and do not use bleach or fabric softener on it. Wash printed garments separately for the first two cycles.

Colour names describe the garment as dyed. Screen rendering of a colour name is not a colour match, and printed ink on that garment is a separate approximation again. How we handle colour

What limits this body

  • Embroidery only. Every flat print method is blocked on a structured crown.
  • Front panel field is 4 in by 2.25 in. That is the hard limit set by the seam and the fused buckram.
  • Adjustable snapback closure. One size.

Where it can be printed

Printable areas, drawn to scale on a 16 by 20 inch field
4 x 2.25 in2.25 x 1.5 in3.5 x 1.5 in
  • Front panel4 x 2.25 in / 10.2 x 5.7 cm
  • Side panel2.25 x 1.5 in / 5.7 x 3.8 cm
  • Back strap3.5 x 1.5 in / 8.9 x 3.8 cm

Dashed edge is the printable boundary. The inner line is the safety margin, and artwork that crosses it risks landing on a seam or a hem. Placement tolerance on press is plus or minus 3 mm.

Method limits apply on top of these. Embroidery, for example, works to a 4 by 4 inch field regardless of how large the garment position is. The studio applies whichever limit is smaller and tells you which one it used.

Methods that run on structured cap twill

1 of 6 methods are available on this fabric. The rest are listed below with the physical reason they are not. Nothing in this list changes after you place an order.

Available

  • M4Embroideryfrom 6 pieces

    Up to 12 thread colours per design · up to 4 x 4 in

Not available on this fabric

  • A cap crown is curved and fused stiff. A flat screen frame cannot make contact across it, so the image would print only where the mesh touches.

  • A cap will not lie flat on a print platen, and the print head cannot clear a structured crown.

  • A heat press platen cannot reach inside a structured crown to apply even pressure. Without even pressure the film only bonds at the high points.

  • Vinyl needs firm even pressure across a flat surface. A curved cap crown gives neither, so the film lifts at the edges within a wash or two.

  • Cotton twill will not take the dye, and a curved crown cannot be pressed evenly at sublimation temperature.

Measurements

Adult tees and tanks. All figures are measured flat and doubled where relevant. Tolerance is plus or minus 1 cm. A garment measuring inside that tolerance matches its label.
