Custom t-shirt printing techniques
Your apparel design deserves the right printing technique. No matter the size of your custom shirt order, each method offers unique benefits for color, texture, and longevity.
Here’s a quick breakdown of the most popular print methods available with Printify.
Direct-to-garment (DTG)
DTG uses inkjet technology to print directly onto the shirt’s fibers, making it ideal for detailed, colorful designs on light and dark cotton shirts.
Dye sublimation
Sublimation, also called all-over-print (AOP), uses heat to bond ink into the fabric for full-coverage prints, delivering vibrant, long-lasting results for high-resolution designs.
Embroidery
Embroidery is a premium option for logos and text. Durable, professional, and works best on thicker garments and classic styles.
Direct-to-film (DTF)
DTF prints your design on a film, then heat-presses it onto a shirt. Great for bold designs on any fabric and flexible for small batches or fast orders.
