Fabric Guide
From lightweight gaming jerseys to heavyweight hoodies, our platform supports a wide range of fabrics matched to each production method. This guide walks you through the types of fabric used in DTF, embroidery, and sublimation so you can pick the right material for comfort, performance, and print compatibility.
Every product on our platform includes built-in care instructions on the product page, but this guide helps you make the right material choice before design even begins.
Direct-to-Film (DTF)
DTF is compatible with most cotton, poly, and blended garments. It performs best on smooth, midweight surfaces like ringspun tees, hoodies, and poly-performance shirts.
Embroidery
Embroidery thrives on thicker, more structured fabrics like caps, polos, fleece, and outerwear. Avoid thin or stretchy items that can distort stitching over time.
Sublimation
Sublimation requires white or light-colored polyester garments. Stretch mesh, smooth poly, and moisture-wicking fabrics provide vibrant, full-coverage prints.
