Default What kind of paper is this?

I have a tee from Jeeto.com (The allergy collection). The design is thick and a little rubbery. It is two colors. My daughter has had a tee for more than a year and it is in great shape. No wear or fading. It's also not shiny.

We silk screen our current tees, but we're looking to add some heat press designs for another possible line. (Yes, we're a little crazy)

Can anyone direct me on what kind of technique or paper this might be? (I've searched around in the archives, but haven't figured it out.)

Thank you!

It could be direct to garment printing. If you do screen printing then I am sure you figured out it was'nt screen printed. It could be a plastisol transfer.

Do you have access to a camera to post a pic of the actual shirt itself, with a nice up-close shot of that graphic?

I'm curious to see this myself and know what they're using...still looking at other items on that site too. Pretty neat!

If you look on the about us page you will see a pic of a burned screen. This may be for the canvas products but I think they probably silk screen the shirts as well.

The logo on the back of the shirt is definitely screened.
The front is not...

I'll try to get a picture of my daughter's tee and report back.

Thanks for the feedback.

They definitely have some great designs over at Jeeto. I've long been a fan. My girl also wears a big truck tee they used to do.

Hi,

This is in fact a screen print... not a heat transfer or anything else.

Glad you like it!

Thats something I was very particular about... good quality and thick.... thats the style of print I like when its that small. Large prints are a different story though.

Hi! Are you the Jeeto man?
If so, I say it again: Love your tees. We have several, especially the allergy collection.
Thank you for answering the question.

I feel it should be a Screen Print with Plastisol and Rubber print on it, once you fuse it with matt paper after screen print then it will not look shiny.

Those allergy shirts are a great idea. I have a daughter that is allergic to peanuts, eggs, etc. I've never thought of that before. Good job.
