Back in the kingteeshops. we started printing t-shirts by hand It’s a lathe thing you wouldn’t understand woodturner shirt. Dried them in the Kilburn launderette and then sold them outside local gigs. That passion very quickly became how we earned our living. At the time, if you wanted to print t-shirts on a commercial basis, screen printing was the recognised method. We became experts in it and, over the years, have screen printed literally millions of garments. These days, we often get asked about DTG printing and screen printing and how to choose between the two. DTG, screen printing t-shirts and the differences.

First, the short answer to the burning question It’s a lathe thing you wouldn’t understand woodturner shirt: which T-shirt fabric is best? Like the answer to most questions in the custom apparel business, it depends on a combination of your particular requirements. Cotton is the go-to fabric for most people because it’s soft and non-irritant, polyester is the go-to for performance, and cotton/poly blends give you the best of both worlds. Wait, there are only four? Granted, people have made T-shirts out of everything from alligator leather to human hair– but I’m guessing you’re not in the market for that. So here are the three main fabric categories you will need to know about to make an informed choice. Here’s a brief description of each and a few of our favorites.
By far the most common and popular fabric for T-shirts, cotton is a fluffy, natural vegetable fiber obtained from the seedpod of the cotton plant. The fiber is most often spun into yarn or thread and used to make the soft, breathable fabric everyone knows and loves. Most of your T-shirts are probably cotton or partially cotton. After all, it’s the fabric of our lives if you believe commercials. It also happens to be hypoallergenic, which is a huge plus for the itchy/rashy types. Cotton as a fabric dates back to prehistoric times. Concert tees from 500 B.C. must be worth a fortune now.
