What is "Made to Order"?

​Okay, so let's clear up the lingo.

"Print on Demand" is just one part of a bigger idea called "Made to Order." 

Think of it like this: your merch is only made once your fan places an order and pays.

Which means you don't need to make anything more than few samples.

​This is the real game-changer. It means you don't have to guess what your follower wants or spend a lot of money on stock that just sits in a storage room.

We handle everything on the back end, from printing to shipping, so you can drop new designs, sell special editions, or even create merch just for a single show without the risk.

​The Printing Techniques: How We Bring Your Vibe to Life

​Your art is unique, and so are the ways we can print it. Knowing the difference between the techniques means you can choose the perfect finish for your brand.

Here's a quick look at the main methods we use:

​Direct-to-Garment (DTG)

​How It Works: Imagine a giant inkjet printer, but for clothes.

DTG sprays water-based ink directly onto the fabric.

​Best For: This is your go-to for designs with lots of colors, gradients, or even photographs. Since there's no setup for each color, it’s perfect for one-off items and small batches.The print is soft and soaks into the fabric, so it feels like a part of the t-shirt.

​Direct-to-Film (DTF)

​How It Works: We print your design onto a special film, then press it onto the garment using heat.[3] It's a two-step process that gets amazing results.

​Best For: DTF is the most versatile option because it works on almost any fabric—cotton, polyester, or a mix of both.[3, 5] The colors are super vibrant, even on dark clothing, and the print is durable and won't crack or peel easily.[6] This is a great all-rounder for any kind of merch.

​Screen Printing

​How It Works: This is the OG of T-shirt printing. A stencil (or "screen") is made for each color in your design, and ink is pushed through it onto the fabric.

​Best For: When you need a massive amount of the same T-shirt, screen printing is the most cost-effective option.

The prints are incredibly durable, bold, and have a classic feel.

It's ideal for simple logos and bold, solid designs for a tour or a festival.

​Vinyl Printing

​How It Works: A machine cuts your design out of a special vinyl sheet, and then we use heat to press it onto the fabric.

​Best For: This method is perfect for simple designs, like your brand name, a single logo, or bold text.

It has a slightly raised, smooth feel and can be used for fun, specialty effects like glitter or metallic finishes.

It's a quick, easy way to create a few custom pieces without any complex setup.
