Default Getting "Dimples and craters" in my design

I have professional heat transfers for dark shirts and sometimes when i Press a design, it comes out the press with these "dimples" all over the design.

It doesn't look bad from a few feet away but looks like the design has the chicken pocks up close.

Has anybody experienced this? Am I using to much pressure?

Ken

I get that on my totes and it is the fabric. I do not get it on tees.
