	There is a video of the M&R Predator belt printer, printing on roll fabric at: http://www.mrprint.com/uploaded/wmv/Predator%20LPC2.wmv

Speaking of which, I contacted M&R and found another printer with one of their "Predator" machines which should be able to do all over printing:

Yeah, the site wasn't really the important part there (I think it's only for their existing customers to upload art). Just the contact info so members who needed all over printing could contact them about their potential job

Yeah, I should have put that next to the link to clarify (I thought about it afterwards...maybe I should edit my original post).

Hey,

Just reading this interesting topic. Have a query in fact that I think you could answer. Anyone seen hoodies by L-R-G or Bape, etc ? I've attatched some pictures.

Just wondering if that would be a belt printing technique ? I'd imagine they were printed and then cut and sewn together, however ?

Thanks

Those hoodies were printed and then sewn together. You can tell because the pattern breaks at the arm seam.

Ahh yeah, very good and neat point to remember. Any idea of these belt printers in the UK, or do US ship cheaply ? :/

I don't know of any in the UK (but there may be some), as for shipping, you would need to contact one of the companies in this thread to see what the costs would be like for your potential order.

Definitely looking into it. Hopefully with the rise of these "all over" prints, will be a rise in places you can get these services.

However, as much as I totally love the "all over" designs and how creative and individual they give the wearer, If more and more companies pick up on this it'll become a died out fad i think, just an idea ?

I think since I've been part of the forums I've seen at least 20-30 people ask about this kind of print, but so far I haven't seen a post from anyone saying they've actually had some of these prints done. It's very possible they just don't want to tell anyone, though.

Just my opinion, but I think it will be "in" for at least 1 more year. Since there aren't too many printers who can do this kind of print, there probably won't be a whole heck of a lot of smaller apparel companies doing it. If someone has a very nice and creative take on it, I think they could be very successful (with a good dose of marketing, of course).

I have my own company as it is heh. Small at present but we are definitely looking into this idea. It is rather niche at present but I really think the customer finds satisfaction and that their money has gone to good use.

Many people i know hate paying so much for a t-shirt with a small logo simply, and these offer diversity and a quality higher than that.

Of course this only applies to certain cultures and i'm unsure what the overall demographic view is ? I think its the urban societies that like this mostly ?

I think so. I've only seen it on shirts for the urban/streetwear market.
