QSO-58 on soccer uniform

Score this soccer season with increased soccer uniform sales.

Soccer teams will now be ordering for the fall season. We have hundreds of soccer designs your teams can choose from as well as the products to apply to these uniforms. Soccer uniforms are typically 100% polyester. All Transfer Express products will apply to this fabric.  If they are labeled “dazzle polyester”, that is just a finish and will not effect the transfer application. One thing to watch for is “sublimated” 100% polyester.  These still can be decorated with our Polytrans screen printed transfers, but you will need to order at least a 2 color print, with the dark color as the outline/background color to block the sublimated dye. For example, if you are using white ink on a red sublimated shirt, we recommend ordering white with a black outline.

Our digitally printed Cad-Printz™ are also great for soccer uniforms especially heart size crests that can be applied to almost any uniform. Cad-Printz ™ are full color so your teams can really stand out at a low cost this season.

Screen Printed vs. Digital -Which should I use?

Screen Printed vs Digital Transfers

We carry two different types of transfers that are both applied to apparel using a heat press.  So which should you use-screen printed or digital?

Screen printed transfers are produced using plastisol ink through a screen.  They are produced in spot color in any color or colors for application on cotton, polyester or cotton/polyester blends.  They are best to use when needing a print in one to three colors, and/or needing a larger print.  Or often when a large run is needed as a pricing advantage is gained with quantity.   Screen printed transfers can be printed in as many colors as needed, but often it is less expensive to go digital if there are a lot of colors in a smaller run.

Digital transfers are digitally produced in full process color. There are two types of digital transfers.  Photo Prints are full color transfers but can only be applied to white or natural shirts.  They are printed on a sheet of clear adhesive that remains on the apparel.  Photo Prints can be applied to cotton, polyester or cotton/poly blends and are recommended for full color on white shirts.

The second type of digital transfers are Cad-Printz™.  Cad-Printz™ are full color and can be applied to almost any type of apparel including nylon, spandex and Lycra as well as cotton, polyester and poly/cotton blends. Use Cad-Printz™ for  full color on dark apparel.  Also use Cad-Printz™ when applying to nylon, Lycra or spandex as it is the only type of transfer that can be used on these fabrics.  Cad-Printz™ can also be price advantageous for smaller prints that are multi-color.

Still not sure.  Don’t worry – our Dealer Service Team will give you a price comparison and help you pick the best transfer for the job!  If you have artwork, it can be sent online at www.TransferExpress.com by clicking “Send us your Artwork” and we will call with a recommendation and pricing.  Or use an Easy Prints® layouts to create your custom prints and we can help you choose the best transfer type.
