Decoration compatibility
VisePrint guidance derived from this garment's stated fabric and construction — not manufacturer claims.
Screen printing
Good
Prints well with a low-bleed ink system made for polyester; standard plastisol can dye-migrate.
- Dye-migration risk on polyester content — use a low-bleed or poly-specific ink system and cure at lower temperatures.
- Textured fleece surface — expect some ink gain; a higher-mesh screen and an underbase help keep edges clean.
DTF transfer
Good
Compatible with this fabric type at correct press temperature and pressure.
- High press heat can affect polyester — test temperature and dwell time before a full run.
- Lofted fleece surface — press with slightly higher pressure for full transfer contact.
DTG printing
Good
Cotton-rich blend prints acceptably; expect a softer, more vintage result than 100% cotton.
- Water-based DTG ink absorbs poorly into polyester and can wash out — pretreat and test.
- Non-flat fleece surface reduces DTG detail.
Embroidery
Excellent
Midweight-plus fabric supports dense stitch counts without distortion.
- Lofted fleece — a water-soluble topping keeps small lettering from sinking.
Heat transfer
Good
Standard HTV and transfers apply well at the correct temperature for this fiber mix.
- Use low-temperature transfer material to avoid scorch or dye migration on polyester.
Sublimation
Conditional
Partial polyester content gives muted, distressed color rather than full saturation.
- Cotton content will not hold sublimation dye — expect a faded, vintage result.
Decoration results can vary by equipment, ink, transfer material, garment color, and production settings. Always test before beginning a full production run.
Fit and sizing
Relaxed fit, cut for unisex wear · sizes S–3XL.

Terms used on this page
- Polyester
- Polyester is a synthetic, petroleum-based fiber prized for durability, quick-dry performance, and colorfastness, but prone to dye migration under screen-print inks.
- Singles (Yarn Count)
- Singles is the yarn-count system where a higher number, like 30/1, means finer, thinner yarn, and a lower number, like 18/1, means thicker, coarser yarn.
- Fleece
- Fleece is a knit fabric with a brushed, napped interior that traps warm air, forming the base of hoodies, crewnecks, and sweatpants.
- Relaxed Fit
- Relaxed fit adds extra ease through the chest and body beyond a classic cut, without going as wide or long as an oversized silhouette.
- Double-lined hood
- A double-lined hood has a second layer of fabric sewn inside the outer shell, adding warmth, structure, and often a contrast-color interior.
- 1x1 Rib
- 1x1 rib is a knit alternating single knit and purl columns one stitch wide, giving collars and cuffs the stretch and recovery to snap back after wear.
