What affects the price of a customized t-shirt?
Five factors influence the price:
- The base garment: fabric weight and cut matter. A 100% premium cotton t-shirt costs more than a basic lightweight one, but feels and lasts better.
- The technique: DTF is ideal for full color, embroidery gives a premium finish, and screen printing is efficient for volume.
- The quantity: the more units of the same design, the lower the cost per piece.
- Design placements: printing front and back costs more than just the chest.
- Extra finishes: private labeling, special packaging, or multiple colors add to the price.

For orders of 12 units or more, you can receive free samples that are deducted from the total when you confirm, so you can validate quality without extra cost.
