Morning all

I've been asked to put this logo onto 1 black t-shirt, but not sure of the best method for doing so.

1. I would think DTG is the best way - but I don't have the equipment to do that! I will pass this over to someone if that's the chosen method!
2. Dark garment transfer? This would leave a white background though.
3. Flex? I don't have all of the colours to match the logo.

I'm waiting for the customer to confirm which method they'd prefer, but in the meantime - what method would you use?

Without the white square your image wouldn't stand out on a black shirt!

Just checked, it may work but the brown wouldn't stand out much against the black. For a one off i'd use flex!

I would print it onto a transfer or dyesub flock (as schizowife says) but contour cut it so it has a nice white border.

Exactly as Adam says, forgot to say about contouring it. But the effect is very good once it is on a black T shirt :)
