DTF vs traditional transfers

DTF transfers on every fabric have transformed how designers approach custom apparel, delivering vibrant color, a soft hand, and durable prints that hold up to repeated washing across a broad spectrum of textures, weights, and fiber types, from airy cotton jerseys to dense canvas and specialty blends, while still offering scalable production workflows and the potential for rapid style iterations.For cotton tees and similar lightweight fabrics, the technology often yields crisp edge definition and reliable color saturation when paired with careful pre-testing, moisture-control measures, and a heat application that respects the garment’s structure and the ink’s curing requirements.
