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.

Terms used on this page
- Recycled Cotton
- Recycled cotton is fiber reclaimed from factory cutting scraps or old textiles, mechanically shredded and respun into yarn, usually blended with virgin fiber.
- Recycled Polyester (rPET)
- Recycled polyester (rPET) is polyester fiber re-extruded from reclaimed plastic, mostly PET bottles, performing like virgin poly while supporting a garment's sustainability claim.
- 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.
- Brushed Finish
- A brushed finish uses wire-bristled rollers to lift a thick nap from fabric, most often the inside face of sweatshirt fleece, trapping air for extra warmth and softness.
- Retail Fit
- Retail fit is a softer, slimmer, side-seamed T-shirt style built to drape and feel like a mall-brand shirt rather than a boxy promotional blank.
- Double-Needle Stitching
- Double-needle stitching sews two parallel rows of lockstitch, usually 1/4 inch apart, along hems and sleeve openings so the seam allowance stays flat and resists unraveling.
