What is Screen Printing, and When is It Best for Hoodies?
Overview of Screen Printing
Screen printing is one of the most popular methods for printing hoodies. It involves creating a stencil (or screen) and using it to apply layers of ink onto the printing surface.
When to Choose Screen Printing
This method is best for large orders with relatively simple designs, as it is cost-effective for bulk printing and provides vibrant, durable prints.
Benefits of Screen Printing
Screen printing is known for its longevity, vibrant colors, and high-quality finish. It works best on cotton and cotton-blend hoodies[1].
Feature | Screen Printing | Best For |
---|---|---|
Cost | Low per unit (bulk) | Large runs of simple designs |
Durability | Very durable | Long-lasting prints |
Detail | Moderate | Large bold designs, logos |
Setup Cost | High (per design) | Bulk orders |

What is DTG Printing and How Does It Compare?
Understanding DTG (Direct-to-Garment) Printing
DTG printing uses a printer similar to an inkjet to print images directly onto the fabric. This method is ideal for small batches with intricate designs and vibrant colors.
When to Choose DTG Printing
DTG is best suited for small orders or designs with many colors and details, as there are no setup costs associated with each new design.
Benefits and Limitations
DTG printing provides high-quality, full-color images and is excellent for realistic designs. However, it might not be as durable as screen printing and is generally best suited for 100% cotton fabrics.
Feature | DTG Printing | Best For |
---|---|---|
Cost | Higher per unit (low MOQ) | Small runs with complex designs |
Durability | Good | Vibrant prints, but less durable than screen printing |
Detail | High | Complex artwork, photos |
Setup Cost | None | One-off designs |

How Does Embroidery Work on Hoodies?
Overview of Embroidery
Embroidery involves stitching designs directly onto fabric using threads. This is a premium technique for adding logos, names, or small patterns to hoodies.
When to Choose Embroidery
Embroidery gives your hoodies a polished look. However, it tends to be more costly for smaller orders compared to printing and isn't ideal for large, vibrant designs.
Benefits and Challenges
Embroidery adds a professional touch to your hoodies. However, it can be more expensive than printing for small orders, and is less suitable for large, colorful designs.
Feature | Embroidery | Best For |
---|---|---|
Cost | High per unit | Small designs, logos |
Durability | Very durable | Long-lasting, high-end finish |
Detail | Moderate | Small logos, text |
Setup Cost | High | Small orders with complex designs |
