The clear gel like part of the shirt is probably just clear gel ink. Any screen printer can do this process as it just requires different ink.

great thanks ! whats the name it goes by? & what about the higher quality screen printers , beter gradiations, color thickness and overall highest quality especially for portraits.
so many shirts i see dont hold up after 5-10 washes with a photo image.

It's possible that the t-shirts you saw weren't printed using screen printing.

It's just a plasitsol ink with no pigment.
Ryonet sells it. (silkscreeningsupplies.com)
