Questions in the title really, is this t-shirt vinyl or screen printed?

You can't tell from the photo.

But looking at the colour of the print I would say screen. Also, there is no reason at all for this to be vinyl. Screening will allow mass production at a fraction of the cost.

Oh right okay thanks, a friend of mine has a Vinyl printer and i want to do something similar to this. Do you think a vinyl will look okay or should I look for a screen printer?

Thanks

Sure! A decent vinyl can be tough to distinguish from a screen print.

Although I only use vinyl for customer orders, rather than my own brands, (i prefer the look, feel, quality and flexibility of a screened print), many companies successfully use vinyl.

If you use good quality vinyl, it's very likely people won't even notice

It is hard to say but I would agree that it looks like a screenprint and I would even guess it is waterbase ink. They say that it is "vintage" and the best way to get that is with a nice, soft hand like a waterbase print.

Pretty sure their stuff is all screen printed

It looks screen printed with a washed soft hand feel.

You can't achieve that with vinyl.
