What to Look for in Custom T–Shirt Design Services

Most online custom t–shirt design services offer a wide selection of design features and apparel options. When looking for a company to design large quantities or individual pieces it is best to decide what is required before choosing a company to work with. Although many design companies offer several print options and apparel choices double check the minor details like shipping cost, delivery time, minimum order requirements and supported file formats.

This is the criteria TopTenREVIEWS used to evaluate Custom T–Shirt Design Services:

Print Type Options
A variety of printing options should be available when designing custom t–shirts. Screen printing is the most common; however, many services include digital, flex and flock print options. Although no designer offers all options, there should be more than one to choose.

Design Features
Ultimately design control should be in the hands of the creator. The online designer program should give the user a considerable amount of control when manipulating images and text. Features should include the ability to adjust image and text placement as well as the ability to support a variety of image formats.

Apparel Options
The online service should provide a large selection of apparel and sizes for customers to customize. This includes t–shirts, tanks, sweatshirts, women’s wear and children’s clothes. Some include additional items like buttons, mouse pads and mugs.

Help/Support
Custom t-shirt design services should provide excellent help and design support. Since customer ideas have to be translated into a tangible product, customers should be able to easily contact the company. Additionally, there should be a comprehensive FAQ or help center to minimize email contact.
