Rush Order Tees is offering these videos to guide customers in the market for custom printed t-shirts. Following consumer interest, the first two video overviews focus on the 2 most popular methods for making custom printed shirts.

Screen Printing vs. Digital Printing

1. Screen Printing (Click Link to Watch Video)

While technically inaccurate, this process is sometimes referred to by the old fashioned term silk screen printing and is still the most common and most popular method for printing custom shirts — especially T-shirts.

Pros:

> Fast

> Inexpensive

> Looks Good

> Long Lasting

Cons:

> Quality Varies Greatly Depending on Reputation of Printer

Screen printing is inexpensive, fast, and can look amazing and last a long time… Depending on the company printing the shirts. This is why Rush Order Tees optimizes designs, runs test prints, thoroughly quality checks physical prints, and reviews EVERY order before they ship it. Since they’ve been printing custom shirts for over ten years. their system is very evolutionarily advanced and efficient so their prices are on par or even better than many low quality solutions.

Tip: Always thoroughly research a company’s consumer reviews and Better Business Bureau (BBB) standings.

2. Digital Printing AKA “Direct to Garment” (Click Link to Watch Video)

Digital printing is a new cutting edge way to print custom T-shirts. Thanks to digital printing any image can be printed in full color with beautifully vivid details onto fabric of varying colors and even optimized to look best on that color.

It has stunning results but is still quite costly for smaller orders. Of course, for larger orders there is an economies of scale that can make it very worth while.

Pros:

> Beautiful Results of Full Color Pictures

> Cost Effective in Large Quantities

Cons:

> More Expensive than Screen Printing (Especially for small or medium orders)

> Longer Process Means Your Shirts Won’t be Ready as Fast

How They Measure
Suppose a designer is making a prototype of a skirt. The skirt will be 33 inches long from top to bottom. The designer decides she needs a piece of fabric 36 inches long. This gives her 1 extra inch of fabric to make the hem at the bottom and 2 extra inches to make the waistband.The waistband is a piece of fabric that goes around the waist.

The designer places the end of her tape measure at the edge of her fabric. She runs the tape down the fabric. Then she finds the number 36 on the tape. She draws a line on the fabric at 36 inches. This marks where the fabric will be cut.Designers also measure people. Suppose a designer is making a long-sleeved shirt for a man. She needs to know how long the sleeves should be. So she holds the end of the measuring tape on the top of the man’s shoulder. She runs the tape down his arm. Then she stops at his wrist. She reads the number on the tape. It is 22. The man’s arm, from shoulder to wrist, is 22 inches long. So the sleeve must be 22 inches long, too.
