Why are custom screen-printed hoodies so popular here in Canada? Possibly because we live in a frozen tundra for half the year! At Artik, we can print custom hoodies with your design on them, the kind of hoodies that make frosty January mornings into cozy days.
Here are four essential tips for ordering custom printed hoodies:
Tip 1. Choose the Perfect Custom Hoodies
Are you looking for some fashionable zippered hoodies, some retro crewneck sweatshirts or just the warmest possible custom hoodies? No matter what hoodie style you need, browse Artik.com to find the perfect hoodie to match your needs. Choose colours, sizes and styles to match your needs and talk to our friendly sales staff for any help you need.
Tip 2. Custom Screen Printed Hoodies or Embroidered Hoodies
When you’re adding your logo to a hoodie, you’ve got to choose between printing and embroidery.
Custom embroidered hoodies look beautiful and high end. If you’ve got a small design and the budget to spare, custom embroidered hoodies are the way to go! A small emblem on the chest can look amazing on zippered hoodies or pullover hoodies. Just keep in mind that embroidered designs may not have the same small details that screen printing can achieve. Remove the tiniest elements of your design and custom embroidered hoodies will be the right choice for you.
Most of our hoodies are screen-printed. This process is cheaper, looks great and can achieve small details and large print areas. Send us your high quality design and we’ll screen-print it onto custom hoodies, choose colours that stand out against the fabric colour or go for a sleek, low contrast design. We can screen print you design onto the front, back and sleeves of your custom hoodie so get creative!
Tip 3. Save Money with Your Custom Hoodie Order
If you choose to screen print your design onto custom hoodies, try limiting the colours in your design. Not only is it cheaper to order custom printed hoodies with less colours, but a simple bold design can look better than a super colourful design.
Going for embroidery? Limit the size and complexity of your design to reduce the stitch count and lower your costs.
Always order ahead of schedule to avoid rush charges and try going for larger quantity orders. You’ll be amazed at how fast the price drops when you order more hoodies!
Tip 4. Designing Your Custom Hoodies
The appearance of your custom hoodie is dependant on your art file. A stunning design can make the difference between a popular hoodie and a flop! If you aren’t experienced, we recommend reaching out to a graphic designer. If you have an amazing idea and a simple design, you can even create it yourself using our online design tool at Artik.com
Custom screen-printing is an amazing process that layers inks and permanently seals them into your custom hoodie fabric. We usually don’t recommend gradients or tiny details. Take a look at some beautiful screen prints by designers you love and embrace the limitations of the screen-printing method.
