Re: Best Tees for DS

Post by PamC »

Hi, I have been browsing around and there seems to be an abundance of t-shirts out there suitable for dye sublimation. Just wondered if anyone had any advice on the best ones/places to buy. Has anyone any advice or things to be aware of. I have a small order from a customer which is ideal for to do our first t-shirt print. thanks for any advice in advance.

I'm going to follow this thread.

I bought some t-shirts from xpress to practice on, (havent had a chance to yet) at 180 gsm they're quite thin/see through. So I'm thinking something at least 200+ gsm.

Not even sure if 200+ GSM is possible or a thing for sub t shirts? Haha

Vapor apparel from the Transfer Press , £4.30 each but good quality. I am going to order a Subli Plus from Xpres to see how they compare as they are 210gsm and cost £4.05.

My personal favourite is the Xpres Subli-Plus XP520 t-shirt. Great feel, good GSM (can't see through it) and excellent quality transfer. Not the cheapest t-shirt out there but well worth the money.

I would agree with Alex I have done a few prints on the xpres XP520 and they are good quality.
