What Is DTF (Direct-to-Film) Printing
DTF printing transfers your artwork onto a special film using pigment inks and adhesive powder, which is then heat-pressed onto the T-shirt. The result is a smooth, durable design that bonds permanently with the fabric. Unlike screen printing or vinyl, DTF allows for unlimited color combinations and precise detail on virtually any textile.
Fabric Guide: Find the Right Blank for Your Print
Open-End Cotton
A heavier, textured fabric that offers durability and affordability. Ideal for bulk orders and basic graphics.
Ringspun Cotton
Soft, smooth, and refined—perfect for detailed DTF prints. Ringspun cotton provides a consistent surface and comfortable wear.
Combed Ringspun Cotton
Extra-soft and luxurious. This refined material is ideal for high-detail artwork and premium apparel lines.
CVC (Cotton-Poly Blend)
Combines the comfort of cotton with the strength of polyester. Excellent print clarity with minimal shrinkage.
Heather Fabrics
Created from multi-colored yarns for a stylish, textured appearance. Works beautifully for multi-color DTF artwork.
Garment-Dyed Cotton
Dyed after sewing for a rich, vintage tone and a broken-in feel. Comfort Colors styles feature this finish for a premium aesthetic.
- Cut and Fit: Side-Seamed vs. Tubular

- Maintains print alignment
- Best for fashion-forward or retail lines
- Tubular T-Shirts

Sizing Tip: Side-seamed fits are true to size; tubular fits offer a looser cut. Choose based on your intended style and design layout.
DTF Durability and Shrinkage
High-quality ringspun and combed ringspun cotton minimizes shrinkage. Once applied, DTF transfers become part of the fabric, maintaining their vibrancy through countless wash cycles. Proper care ensures long-term durability without cracking or fading.
Safe, Soft Prints for Kids
Our children’s blanks, such as Rabbit Skins, are soft, safe, and certified to meet textile safety standards. DTF printing produces gentle, long-lasting designs suitable for infants and toddlers—perfect for school uniforms, events, or custom gifts.
Care Instructions for DTF-Printed T-Shirts
- Wash inside-out in cold or warm water
- Use mild detergent; avoid bleach and softeners
- Tumble dry low or hang to dry
- Do not iron directly over the print
- Proper care preserves both the fabric texture and the DTF color brilliance.

Blanks faq
Open-end yarn (common on some budget tees) feels a bit coarser; ringspun yarn is spun to make the fibers smoother and stronger; combed ringspun goes further by combing out impurities for an extra-soft, tight knit (e.g., BELLA+CANVAS “Airlume” jerseys). Softer yarns generally give a smoother print surface.
Garment-dyed pieces are sewn first, then dyed and washed. That’s what gives Comfort Colors the broken-in feel, minimal at-home shrinkage, and the slightly varied, vintage color tone customers love; some shade variance from batch to batch is normal.
CVC usually means a cotton-rich 60/40 cotton-poly jersey (Next Level’s classic blend). Note that exact ratios can vary by brand and style (e.g., some heathers are 52/48), which can affect hand-feel and how inks lay.
Side-seamed tees (common on BELLA+CANVAS) hold a more retail/modern shape. Many Gildan classics (e.g., 5000) are tubular/seamless body with a more classic fit. Check the product page/size chart for each style.
Most mainstream blanks are pre-shrunk or washed. For example, Gildan 5000 is 100% pre-shrunk cotton; Comfort Colors tees are garment-dyed and washed for “almost no shrinkage at home.” Always follow care labels for best results.
A tear-away label is a tag designed to remove cleanly so you can add your own neck print/label—great for branding. Many popular blanks offer tear-away options (including numerous Gildan 5000 variants).
Rabbit Skins (LAT Apparel) highlights CPSIA compliance and publishes kid-specific specs/size charts—useful for shops decorating baby bodysuits and youth styles.
