Again the point is being missed. What I see here is some people nit picking about why this design was printed larger, or not positioned right, etc. Production is production. Hands on is the only way you'll get truely custom orders done right.

I get your point, I just dont' agree

I don't think "hands on" is the only way to get production right. If that was the case, then companies would never outsource. And outsourcing production is done by the majority of companies, from the big names like Disney, Google, Harley Davidson, down to the many smaller companies.

Completely different business model. You get Disney orders right every time or they pull $2 million in business away from you. The random person does not qualify for that type of treatment.

It doesn't matter the size of the company, only managing the quality of the product. I have seen just as many smaller companies with little regard for quality control, as I have with larger ones.

The point of this thread was to see how the major fullfillment services compared with each other, print methods, and such.

LOL, I would hate to ever see the thread that may come up, comparing the lil guys.

Hey! Long time, no see. So, how do you like this new shirt from SS, do you see a difference in printing? It looks good from here. How do you like it in person?

What's a "Flex" print?

It looks like vinyl.

Yes, Flex is Spreadshirt's name for vinyl. Maybe it comes from the "thermoflex" brand of vinyl. That brand is manufactured in Germany, which I think is where Spreadshirt started.

Dang, no wonder the letters looks so 'clean'. Is the vinyl "soft", Schneider? Thanks.

If it is ThermoFlex as Rodney said, then yep. It has a soft feel, similar to IronAll dark.

Thanks, Prom. I was kind of hoping for softer than that even. I'll end up going out to the threads to find the vinyl that is said to be as soft as screen print. I want to try that. I thought SS would have used something that was "that" soft...

Okay, thanks a gillion. Peace, brotha.
