Left / right chestSmall-format logo zone. Verify pocket, placket, seam, or panel interference.
Upper backCommon name or small-logo location below the back collar.
Full backLarge-format rear artwork zone. Confirm shoulder seam and hem clearance.
Short sleeveCheck sleeve seam, cuff, taper, and platen/hoop access before production.
Specialty placementNeck, hem, side, wrap, or oversized placements require a physical sample and equipment-specific setup.

Exact decoration dimensions are not yet verified for this style.

We intentionally do not publish generic “12 × 14” style limits as if they were approved. Confirm the physical garment, artwork, platen or hoop, and final position before production.

Decoration Method Planning

Method compatibility depends on fabric composition, garment weight, coatings, stretch, seams, and production equipment.

Screen Printing

Review ink system, mesh, underbase, cure temperature, and seam or collar interference. Test print when fabric or color behavior is uncertain.

DTG / DTF

Confirm pretreatment or film/adhesive compatibility, press temperature, color migration risk, and wash-performance expectations.

Heat Transfer

Verify fabric heat tolerance, dwell time, pressure, transfer type, and any dye-migration or scorch risk before pressing production units.

Embroidery

Check fabric stability, backing, hoop access, stitch density, seam clearance, and garment weight. Produce a sample for dense or large designs.
