Here the 3 things you should know before you order custom T-shirts.

When you get ready to order custom t-shirts, it begins a small adventure. Keep these 3 things in mind and you should get some good custom t-shirts.

#1 –  If you’re printing pictures or more than six colors or your artwork has a gradient in it, you want direct to garment printing or direct to film printing. 

You can go to a screen printer and maybe if they need the business bad enough, they’ll take it. But there isn’t really a good efficient way to do more than six to seven colors. Definitely no efficient way to do a gradient and pictures just look amazing in direct to garment. 

#2 – Vector artwork and native files are the most ideal file types

These can include Photoshop files, illustrator, Indesign files, anything that is known as a native format or a vectorized file is the most ideal for any type of T-shirt printing service. If you’ve read our Ultimate Custom T-Shirt Guide for 2022 you know there’s multiple types of T-shirt printing services out there.  They all need the same type of files, which are vector artwork files or files in native format. 

#3 – It takes time to make beautiful prints. Please don’t rush your T-shirt printing shop.

I know everybody’s in a rush these days and everybody wants their project done yesterday. But believe me when I tell you this, waiting a little bit longer is going to get you that much better of a product. Well, if you work with a good shop like WDFA Custom Tees. You will get a better product if you just let us do it at the pace that we want to, and it’s not always because we’re trying to rush you through or we’re trying to make more money by making  you wait. We just know that good things take time.
