——Imprintable apparel comes in numerous styles and colours.  Some premium or specialized apparel (such as athletic/occupational wear or associated accessories such as tote bags, towels or flags) are rather limited in colour range, while other commonplace casual and outer wear  (such as tee shirts or sweat shirts) are available in a very broad selection of colours.

 imprint-apparel colour schemes

 light and dark inks and garments


——The client should be aware that the apparel/ink colour scheme of an imprint project has a significant bearing on the imprint cost for each item as well as the cost for the entire imprint project.  There are two basic recommended schemes (one and two colour imprints shown)...

      1. dark ink on light apparel, or...                  2. light ink on dark apparel


——It is possible to print light inks on light apparel and dark inks on dark apparel, but the result can often be rather disappointing and difficult to distinguish at a distance because of the lack of contrast between the apparel and imprinted ink colours.  On the other hand, for some images this may be exactly what the client desires (that is, low contrast colour schemes).  In such cases, both schemes are priced as dark ink on light apparel because light inks do not require additional measures to be applied to light apparel, just as dark inks require no such measures in order to imprint as desired on dark garments.  Here are some examples (the last two are the same as above, but without the flash procedure used for light ink on dark apparel)



——In general, the dark ink on light apparel scheme (shown on left) is less expensive than the light ink on dark apparel scheme;  The light apparel costs less and does not require the flash procedure.  For details on the costs associated with imprint-apparel colour schemes, click here to go to our Pricing Section.
