FAQs
Is this shirt suitable for Direct-to-Garment printing?
Yes, the fine knit gauge and the use of Belcoro yarn create a stable, smooth surface ideal for DTG and screen printing.
Will this shirt shrink?
As a 100% cotton product, some minor shrinkage is expected. To minimize this, wash in cool water and avoid high-heat tumble drying.
What is the benefit of the Lycra ribbing?
The inclusion of Lycra in the neck ribbing helps the collar stay elastic and return to its original shape rather than becoming loose or wavy over time.
Can I iron this shirt?
Yes, you can iron the shirt on a medium setting. However, avoid ironing directly over any screen-printed designs, as the heat can damage the ink.
Is the fabric lightweight or heavy?
This model features a fine knit gauge that balances durability with a comfortable, mid-weight feel suitable for year-round wear.
Troubleshooting
Neck collar appears stretched after heavy use
Ensure you are not pulling the collar forcefully when dressing and follow cool-water wash cycles to allow the Lycra fibers to retain their tension.
Print appears faded after several washes
Always turn the garment inside out before washing and avoid high-heat drying cycles which can cause ink cracking and fading.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For printing, this shirt is compatible with standard screen printing inks and DTG (Direct-to-Garment) processes due to its tight-knit surface. To maintain the quality of the fabric and any printed artwork, follow these care guidelines:
- Machine wash at a cool temperature, ideally 30-40 degrees Celsius.
- Wash inside out to protect the contrast trim and any screen-printed graphic from friction.
- Avoid harsh bleach or heavy detergents that can break down cotton fibers.
- Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry to prevent excessive shrinkage.
- Use a cool iron if necessary, but avoid ironing directly over printed graphics.
