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

  • Can be used on cotton, cotton blends, and synthetic materials

What Our Customers Say

They do quality t-shirts in a timely fashion. I just think they might need to change their t-shirt supplier. I have had 2 come pretty un stitched so far which isn't normal for relatively new t-shirts. They were nice enough to stitch one up for free,which isn't a service they provide. Other than the t-shirt quality I have experienced so far, they are pretty fabulous.
By Pancho
Great shirt and I loved the way they came out. I would have rated a 5 stars if they were the exact way I had sent for them to look. They were nice though.
By Carmen Castro
Fast, friendly service that is familiar with our needs.
By Lori Esparza
The staff was really friendly and helpful. I took my own design and they were able to make a transfer and had my shirts ready in 24 hours! Definitely going back next time I want to make some shirts!
By Preston Pena
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Big Frog T-Shirt Printing! They went completely above and beyond to make sure we got exactly what we wanted for our daughter’s gender reveal shirts. They were patient, helpful, creative, and truly cared about getting every detail just right. The shirts turned out absolutely perfect, and we couldn’t have been happier with the finished product! It’s clear that they take pride in their work and genuinely care about their customers’ experience. Thank you, Big Frog, for helping make such a special moment even more memorable! 💕💙 We will 1,000 percent be ordering from here again and will definitely recommend Big Frog to our family and friends! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

By Mario Longoria
I had a great experience working with this company! I recently had a graphic T-shirt made along with an embroidered polo for work, and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. The quality and attention to detail were fantastic, and both shirts came out looking great. The staff was extremely friendly, professional, and beyond helpful throughout the entire process. They made sure everything was exactly what I was looking for and made the experience easy from start to finish. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality custom shirts and excellent customer service. I’ll definitely be coming back for future orders! Thanks -Justin

By Robin Lea
It was my first trip to a custom apparel shop. I had no clue what I wanted, but I thought I did. I was greeted by multiple employees and was attended to by not less 2 of the most delightful people I’ve encountered in years. It was a nice place. Clean, tidy, inviting and quiet. The ladies were quiet (great background music playlist) helpful and informative. When my bulletproof, well-researched, totally awesome plan fell apart after the first question, the response came with several options. They examined the shirts I brought, and gave me the pros and cons along with a price. It was a beautiful exercise in Sales Professionalism! I was given an approximate completion time and I was advised that an email would arrive with a proof. Shockingly, everything went exactly as described. The finished product was exactly what I envisioned. I’ll be back. Excellent, good people at Big Frog! I’ll be back and I’ll tell everyone that will listen! Thank you so much!
By Justin Burrage
Our first option fell through so we contacted big frog for an overnight request to have some shirts ready by 11am. They were very courteous and helpful and professional. They accommodated our request and the shirts came out perfect just as the mock up. Thank you, Jordan for putting up with our drama.!!
By Clayton C
WOW, what a great place. This was the first time we used Big Frog and totally will be back! Very responsive, great products, great price. T-shirts are exactly what they said they would be. We are SO glad to be able to do business local and support our town. business to business. THANK YOU, JRCC Boerne.
By Betsey Wadley
For a first time customer, I am very grateful to have found this place. So far experience has been great. I have no doubt our products will be amazing! Will definitely recommend to other businesses and continue to order more products also.
By Maria Dolores Cerna
Excellent staff, friendly, and understandable. They were able to help me with my small spontaneous order for my child's birthday. Looking forward to purchasing more from this store.
By Hector Serrano

Big Frog is my go to for my company shirts, caps, and beanies! Been using the for years! I don’t dare go anywhere else, because their friendly, familiar faces and excellent customer service give me no doubt they’re my favorite!
By Gabriel Macias

By Bobby DC
Great quality fast turnaound and good pricing.
By Darby
Bethany was great ordered 3 tshirts... same fronts different backs less than 24hr turn around... very nice n would definitely use again especially on last minute needs! ;)
By Shalee Smitley
I interacted with several associates and they were all super helpful to make sure the design I created came out how I wanted. They were able to look up a previous order for reference as well. The shirts came out great and on time!
By Amanda Strickland
They do a superior job. I love the quality of the print. I had previously went to 3tees Custom Shirts one time and was given a print that immediately cracked and fell apart. Big Frog takes a little more time and is a little higher in pricing but is definitely well worth it! You will get what you pay for. You want quality? This is a no brainer, go to them. Your shirts will survive several washes, they will look great. Trust me, these are your people.
By Mind Your Business

By Velma Hinojosa

By Lisa Dye
Just two hours after coming up with an idea for at t-shirt, it was ready for pick up. I love the shirt, the material and image are an excellent quality and it fits nice. I'm very pleased with my order and will keep this place in mind the next time I need a shirt printed right away.
By Lindsey Zamora
