Default Percent of t's you print one color.

I was wondering what percent everyone prints t's that are just one color print. Trying to do some market research. Thanks.

Default Re: Percent of t's you print one color.

Off the top of my head I would say more than half. A large percentage of the remainder would be two color. 3-6 colors is probably less than 10%.

Of one color, white is probably about 75% of orders. Also, I have a lot of 2-sided one color orders lately. These is not for a clothing line, its mostly schools, bands, and businesses.

It seems that the trend is starting to come back from multi-color designs to a simpler 1-2 colors. Just what I've noticed in my circles, could be different elsewhere.

Default Re: Percent of t's you print one color.

Wow, I wish my numbers were like you guys'. I would guestimate around 30% one color. Most are 2-3 color maybe 50-60%. And 4-5 colors are most of the remainder. 6 and above compose of probably less than 5%. But unfortunately, the majority of the one colors maybe 60-70% are white, which really isn't even like a one color. I still usually shoot two screens for any job with white ink over 70 shirts.

We do allot of school clubs and small businesses and they seem to really like a simple bold one color shirt for some reason?
