This t-shirt arrived last week all the way from sunny California to sunny Okinawa Luxx Noir London Shirt. It’s a black 100% cotton t-shirt. The printed label says “Made in America”. I don’t know for sure but it feels like an Anvil/Gildan t-shirt. It’s a little heavy and not all that soft. On the other hand, the ink is surprisingly soft considering the white and red is so vibrant on the black t-shirt. It’s a little bit shorter, heavier, and looser than a standard American Apparel t-shirt.

Cost can rarely be ignored. It’s nearly always important and often a primary concern in most custom printing projects Luxx Noir London Shirt. Put simply, production costs matter and DTG is more expensive for larger orders. Small print-runs are comparable, depending on the quantity and design, but screen printing is the most cost-effective option for higher volumes or bulk t-shirt printing. If that’s what you need and your artwork is too complex, a good designer may be able to retain the concept but amend it in a way that works for screen printing.
DTG has been a welcome addition to the garment printing world. It adds another dimension to what’s possible for specialised branding. We’ll no doubt be happily doing more of it. Our industry is no different to everything else in life – it changes and change, when handled intelligently, can be a good thing. In many ways though, DTG is still the new kid on the block and destined to remain so for the foreseeable future. Screen printing may be harder work, but when done well it delivers consistently good results. It has history on its side. That said, every printing project is unique and demands its own solution.
