Decoration compatibility

Screen printing
Excellent

DTF transfer
Good
Compatible with this fabric type at correct press temperature and pressure.
DTG printing
Excellent
High-cotton smooth knit is the ideal DTG substrate.
Embroidery
Conditional
Very light fabric can pucker under dense designs — keep stitch counts modest and stabilize well.
- Lightweight or performance knit — use a stabilizer/backing to prevent puckering.
Heat transfer
Good
Standard HTV and transfers apply well at the correct temperature for this fiber mix.
Sublimation
Not Recommended
Cotton-dominant fabric does not bond sublimation dye.
Decoration results can vary by equipment, ink, transfer material, garment color, and production settings. Always test before beginning a full production run.

Terms used on this page
- 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.
- 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.
- Heather Fabric
- Heather fabric is knit or woven from a blend of dyed and undyed fiber, creating a mottled two-tone look that usually signals polyester content.
- Classic Fit
- Classic fit is the roomy, straight-cut 'full cut' T-shirt silhouette with generous body ease and minimal waist taper, built to fit the broadest range of body types.
- Ribbed Collar
- A ribbed collar is a stretchy rib-knit neckband, usually 1x1 rib, whose recovery after stretching depends heavily on how much spandex is blended in.
- Taped Neck (Shoulder-to-Shoulder Taping)
- A taped neck is a strip of tape sewn over a garment's shoulder-to-shoulder seam to stop it from stretching out and smooth the seam against skin.
