Decoration Techniques

Not sure how to put your logo on a garment? Here's a plain-language guide to the four methods we use most, and which garments each one suits. When you're ready, request a quote and we'll recommend the best fit for your artwork, quantity, and budget.

Embroidery

Your design is stitched into the fabric with thread, giving a premium, textured, long-wearing finish.

Best for: Polos, caps, jackets, and structured bags — anywhere a durable, upscale look matters.

Screen printing

Ink is pushed through a stencil screen, one screen per colour. The gold standard for bold, vivid prints at volume.

Best for: T-shirts, hoodies, and any larger run with a limited number of ink colours.

Heat transfer

A design is cut or printed onto a transfer film and heat-pressed onto the garment. Great for names, numbers, and small runs.

Best for: Team jerseys, activewear, and personalized one-offs.

Direct-to-garment (DTG)

A specialized printer lays ink directly onto the fabric, reproducing full-colour, photographic detail with no per-colour setup.

Best for: Detailed or multi-colour artwork on cotton tees, especially in smaller quantities.
