Garments are as unique as you and me. Garments are not like other products that are made by machines. Shirts, sweaters, hoodies, etc, are all sewn together by human hands and it’s because of this Human element that variations in the garments may occur.
For example, two shirts of the same size, may actually be cut and sewn differently causing a slight variations in actual size. This also goes for Hoodie pockets and seams. We try to inspect each shirt for obvious variations and/or defects due to the garment’s manufacturing, but sometimes these issues slip through our hands. If you receive any garments that you are not 100% satisfied with due to rips, holes, or inconsistent seams, please let us know and we will work with you to correct the problem.
We’re taking garment printing into the 21st century with DTG (direct-to-garment) technology. It’s perfect for ecommerce—no setup fees and no minimums.
DTG is the technique we use for most of our garment prints. We use eco-friendly water-based inks that provide unlimited colour combinations and make detailed prints pop.
There aren’t many things our incredible DTG process cannot achieve! However, when choosing the colours for your artwork, it’s important to note that they may look different on a real product than what you see on your computer monitor. Even if you have calibrated your monitor to a specific colour profile, there are various factors that influence the final appearance of colours on a printed product. Because of this, we can’t guarantee 100% colour accuracy.
Our printers will convert your submitted print file from RGB to CMYK colour space. This colour conversion process changes the colour gamut or range of colours that can be expressed. You must be very cautious when using bright neon and pastel RGB values in your print files. Some examples include hot pinks, lime greens, construction orange, highlighter yellow, Easter egg shades, etc. You should also consider other factors like fabric material, garment colour, and whether your print will require a white under base layer when choosing colours.
If colour accuracy is important to you, we suggest ordering our pre-made colour swatches on a sample product. You can use those swatches to decide which RGB values best compare to the desired results when printed on a physical product. We also recommend exporting your print files in the sRGB colour profile, sRGB IEC61966-2.1 specifically.

Accessory designs will be printed with vinyl printing. Vector graphics are necessary for plot printing. We use a machine for plot printing which punches out your design on colour vinyl. Then a member of the FITPRINT staff “weeds” the design: that is, removes the unnecessary pieces of film. The weeded design is then positioned on the product and pressed on using high heat and pressure. The carrier film is peeled off and, voilà, the product is finished.
