  DTG vs. DTF – Which Print is Best for Your 100% Cotton Shirt?

  You’re customizing a 100% cotton shirt.  Cotton works well with both Direct-to-Garment (DTG) and Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing, but each has a slightly different feel and finish. Here’s what to consider:

  DTG (Direct-to-Garment)

  • Ultra-Soft Feel: The ink soaks into the fabric, so the design feels smooth and natural—like part of the shirt.

  • Best for Detailed or Photographic Designs: It handles fine lines, gradients, and full-color images really well.

  • Breathable Print: Because it’s ink in the fabric (not sitting on top), the shirt stays soft and comfortable.

  • Ideal for Light or Medium Colors: DTG works best on lighter colors; dark shirts need extra prep (pretreatment).

  Choose DTG if you want a soft, breathable shirt with a natural look and feel—especially for detailed or artistic designs.

  DTF (Direct-to-Film)

  • Vibrant Colors: Prints are bold and bright, even on dark cotton.

  • Slightly Textured Feel: The design sits on top of the fabric, so you’ll feel a slight “sticker-like” texture.

  • Great Durability: It’s tough—resists cracking and holds up well through washes.

  • Fast & Flexible: Often quicker to apply, especially for bold, graphic-style artwork.

  Choose DTF if you want bold, eye-catching colors that really stand out and don’t mind a slightly raised texture on the print.
