Heat Pressed Vinyl

What is Heat Pressed Vinyl?

Often when people hear the words “heat pressed vinyl” they tend to curl their lip or cringe.  This is because they are reminded of the 80’s and 90’s when they had a particular shirt that they didn’t like. Maybe the letters peeled off or maybe it was just plain heavy feeling and not breathable.

That is no longer the case!!  Today’s Heat Pressed Vinyl is so soft and flexible that many don’t even know the difference between it and Screen Printing.

Heat Pressed Vinyl is the way to go when numbering sports uniforms or adding any other customization to a garment.  Also this is how we typically prefer to make “one off” shirts.

PROS:

  • Most affordable for quantities of less than 10
  • Will NOT peel off
  • Many special colors and textures
  • Great for personalization, like names and numbers.

CONS:

  • Can have a slightly “heavier” feel
  • Not as detailed as other methods
  • Can become “pricey” in quantities over 10
