Heat transfer over hoodies with front pockets
I am having a hard time heat pressing on hoodies with the front pockets. I have increased the pressure but I still can not get my design to completely transfer onto the sweatshirt. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Heat transfer over hoodies with front pockets Are you actually transferring on the pocket? If not, make sure the pocket portion of the hoodie is not in the press. Have it hang off the side/bottom.

Re: Heat transfer over hoodies with front pockets Also, I feed the hoodie over the platen so only press on one layer of fleece. (This is really only possible on a 15x15.)

Re: Heat transfer over hoodies with front pockets I was gonna suggest a mousepad under the area to lift it up. The teflon pillows work great too.
