Which Decorating Service is Best for Your Custom T-Shirt Needs?

Not sure which decorating service to choose for a fun run, corporate or group shirt? Here’s a quick guide to help you:

Direct-to-Garment-T-Shirt-Printing

DIRECT-TO-GARMENT (DTG) PRINTING

Uses an all-digital process to inkjet print onto a garment or merchandise.

Benefits:

  • Printing can be done fast—usually in 24 hours
  • Images can be high resolution and full color
  • Water-based ink is eco-friendly
  • Printing feels soft to the touch

DIRECT-TO-GARMENT (DTG) PRINTING WITH WHITE

Prints a white layer as a “primer” on darker garments, then adds colored inks on top of the primer.

Benefits:

  • Images can be high resolution and full color
  • Works with most garment colors, including dark colors like black and navy blue
  • Works best with 100% cotton products
  • Provides excellent color saturation

Embroidery

EMBROIDERY

Uses decorative stitching to create a raised design with threads of different types and colors.

Benefits:

  • Works with most garment colors, including dark colors like black and navy blue
  • Can be used on cotton, cotton blends, and synthetic materials
  • Provides excellent color saturation
  • A great choice for businesses or someone wanting a professional look

SCREEN PRINTING

Uses a series of screens to force ink through fibers in order to create a design. Multiple layers of screen printing are used to achieve designs with numerous colors.

Benefits:

  • Works with most garment colors, including dark colors like black and navy blue
  • Provides excellent color saturation
  • Has a great artsy, vintage look

Ultra-Print

ULTRA PRINTS

Almost identical to screen printing with inks applied onto specialty paper. The inks are transferred from the paper to the garment using pressurized heat.

Benefits:

  • Works with most garment colors, including dark colors like black and navy blue
  • Provides excellent color saturation
  • Specialty paper can be used for another printing order of the same design at a later time

VINYL APPLICATION

Uses vinyl cut into a pattern or design that is applied to a garment using pressurized heat.

Benefits:

  • Exceptionally durable, often used for sport uniforms
  • Works with most garment colors, including dark colors like black and navy blue
  • Provides excellent color saturation
  • Can be used on cotton, cotton blends, and synthetic materials

What Our Customers Say

Overall great service from dropping off my shirts to get customized to picking up the final product. They look absolutely perfect and I will definitely be using them again!
By Alexa Blomberg
Paco and his lovely crew did a bang up job on the shirts and caps for our Department. Design came out as intended, was cost effective and received in a timely manner.
By T G
I had a special request item for my son's wedding and Big Frog (shout out to Paco!) came up with a solution. We needed custom bibs, not a usual item they handled. Paco found a source for plain bibs, then tested various printing techniques to find the one that would be most economical with the best quality. They came out perfectly and everyone at the wedding loved them. I highly recommend - especially if you're looking for someone to find a creative solution for whatever you need!
By Patti Weber
Thank you so much for turning my design around so quickly! Your employees are so sweet & knew my order immediately. Love you guys. Will return again!

By Matt Wolocko
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can't say enough great things about Big Frog Custom T-Shirts & More! Paco has always taken great care of me and consistently gets all of my patches completed in a timely manner. Most recently, I needed patches embroidered for my wedding shirt. The original estimate from the franchise embroidery service was a three-week turnaround. However, with only one week left before they were due, I was told it would take another month to complete them. Needless to say, I was absolutely panicking because I thought my wedding shirt wasn't going to be ready in time. Paco stepped in without hesitation and went above and beyond. He personally tracked down the exact patch material needed to match my wedding shirt and the embroidery, then embroidered the patches himself to make sure everything was completed in time for my wedding. His attention to detail, craftsmanship, and commitment to his customers are second to none. It's rare to find someone who truly cares as much as Paco does. If you're looking for quality work and outstanding customer service, I highly recommend Big Frog Custom T-Shirts & More. Thank you, Paco, for helping make my wedding even more special!

The team at Big Frog Rochester were incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and flexible with my order. I needed a handful of shirts ready within three days, and they completed the order earlier than expected. They were flexible when I called twice to change sizes in my order. Andrea was really friendly and professional, promising she could make my pixelated image clear and crisp and completely delivered on the promise. Will order from here again!
