Custom printed t-shirts, made to be worn

T-Shirt Printing for Every Budget

Printed t-shirts come in a huge range of styles, weights and price points, and the right one depends on who is wearing it and why. A free tee for a fun run has a different job to a retail t-shirt your customers pay for, so we help you choose the blank before we talk about the print.

We stock men's, women's and unisex cuts in standard cotton, organic cotton, polyester and bamboo, from lightweight basics to heavyweight oversized fits. Mixed sizes cost no extra, and every order comes with a free visual proof before anything is printed.

How We Print Your T-Shirts

We print t-shirts in house using four main methods. Send your artwork and we will recommend the one that suits the design, the garment and the quantity.

Choosing the Right T-Shirt

Start with the wearer. For a one day event or a big giveaway, a lighter weight cotton tee keeps the cost per shirt down. For staff who wear their t-shirt every week, a heavier, better made blank holds its shape and colour through the wash. If the t-shirts are going on sale, customers expect a retail feel, so a premium brand and a considered fit make a real difference. If the t-shirts are promoting your business, our guide to promotional t-shirts for business explains how to get the most from them.

Then think about the print. Screen printing is the most cost effective way to print larger runs and gives the most accurate colour match, while DTG suits full colour artwork on smaller runs. For bigger statements, see our all over printing, jumbo screen printing, puff printing, and metallic and foil printing options, and our tips on keeping t-shirt printing costs down.

T-Shirt Weights and Fits

Weight changes how a t-shirt feels and how long it lasts. Lightweight tees of around 140 to 160gsm are cool to wear and keep the cost down for events and giveaways. Mid weights around 180gsm are the everyday choice for staff and merch, and heavyweight tees of 200gsm and above feel premium, hold their shape and carry a big print well.

Fits matter just as much. Classic fits suit uniforms and events, slimmer cuts look sharper on customer facing staff, and boxy or oversized t-shirts are what streetwear and band merch buyers expect. Many ranges also come in women's and children's sizes, so a whole team or family can match.

How T-Shirt Orders Work

From your first message to boxes of finished tees at your door, here is how a t-shirt order runs.

Printed T-Shirts: Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum order for printed t-shirts?

Screen printed t-shirts work best from around 20 pieces per design, because of the screen set up. For smaller runs we recommend DTG or transfer printing, and embroidered t-shirts start from 8 pieces.

Which printing method is best for t-shirts?

Screen printing is best for larger runs and bold colours, with an exact Pantone match. DTG suits full colour and photographic designs on cotton, and transfer printing suits small logos, names and numbers. We will recommend the right method when we see your artwork.

Do you offer organic or sustainable t-shirts?

Yes. Stanley/Stella and Earth Positive (formerly Continental) both offer organic cotton t-shirts, and Earth Positive t-shirts are made with a much lower carbon footprint than standard cotton. We also offer bamboo t-shirts.

How long does t-shirt printing take?

Our standard turnaround is six to seven business days from approved artwork, and express turnaround is available when the date is tight. Tell us your deadline when you enquire.

Can I order different sizes and colours?

Yes. Mixed sizes cost no extra, and you can split an order across colours. Our Account Managers will help you work out a size breakdown if you are not sure.
