Update on Shirts

Curb · 11-19-2008, 09:19 PM

so they used thermoflex vinyl (basically an iron on) and ebbs got a screen printed one. I will say this if applied properly thermoflex could last forever, its good shit. when I was in the shirt business i've used thermoflex vinyl and have had good results with it, but i'm not crazy about it...it is more expensive to get done than regular screen printing and regular screen printing can also last forever. the only good side about thermoflex is that you can get almost any color you want. so there are lots of pros and some cons too it. well that's my .02. let me know how the shirt holds up to washing ie, shrinking

spreadshirt offers flex, flock, and digital direct. What are your opinions of those three?

never heard of flock or digital but like i said thermoflex vinyl is a good product but it is a little expensive.

yea i think that was one of the revisions or dif looks i did. honestly i couldnt tell till you pointed it out.

Do the sizes fit decently? the M i got from ebbs fits like a L.

I could go with a breast logo. Either over to one side or right in the middle at maybe a third of the size. :.02:

a standard full back logo is between 12"-13" across and a standard front usually a center chest is between 6"-8" and a breast logo is about 4"...just to give you some basis on sizes, I have always been one to have a small logo on the front and a big one on the back...

here is an example of what i did for a local forum down here
