T-shirt printing
Custom T-shirt printing, matched to your order
The right T-shirt printing method depends on how many shirts you need, how many colours are in the design and what the fabric is. We explain the options in plain terms and quote on the one that fits, from a few shirts for a team to a full run for an event.

Which print method suits you
| Method | Suits | Consider |
|---|---|---|
| DTF | Full-colour designs, small to medium orders, many fabrics | Flexible and detailed |
| Screen printing | Larger runs, simple designs with few colours | Set-up per colour |
| DTG | Detailed designs on cotton, very small runs | Best on suitable fabric |
| Sublimation | All-over, bright designs on polyester | Needs polyester or poly-coated |

Garments and sizes
We can quote printing on your own supplied shirts or supply them, from basic cotton tees to golfers, long sleeves and performance fabrics. Tell us the sizes needed and the split, since each size needs the print placed sensibly. For larger orders see bulk T-shirt supply.
Artwork for T-shirts
Send vector artwork or a high-resolution transparent PNG at the real print size. Say where the print goes: left chest, full front, back, sleeve. Light colours on dark shirts may need a different treatment, and gradients or photos suit some methods better than others. See the artwork guidelines.
Care and longevity
Wash inside out in cool water, avoid bleach and iron on the reverse side to help prints last. Print life varies by method, fabric and use, and we advise on care for your job.
Turnaround and collection
Timing depends on method, quantity, garment availability and curing. Fast options exist for some jobs, subject to capacity, job size, approved artwork, payment and a confirmed deadline, confirmed on the quote. Collect from Rivonia once ready, or ask for delivery to be quoted.

Frequently asked questions
Can I order just one or two shirts?
Some methods suit small runs better than others. Tell us your quantity and we will recommend what works.
Which method is best for a logo with many colours?
DTF and DTG handle many colours well, while screen printing is usually best when colours are few and volumes are higher.
Can you supply the shirts?
Yes, garment supply can be quoted. You can also bring your own shirts.
Will the print crack or fade?
Quality depends on method, fabric and care. Follow wash instructions and we can explain what to expect.
Can I have names and numbers on shirts?
Yes, names and numbers can be quoted. Send a list.
