160gsm Standard Weight Jersey (poly)
This is a popular option for jersey fabric printing. The 160gsm jersey is a beautifully soft and gentle material, which works very well for personalised t-shirt printing. More opaque than the 130gsm, you can create slightly lighter patterns with this jersey. Colours and details show up well.

180gsm Medium Weight Jersey (cotton)
This jersey fabric is full of character and bounces back into its original shape. A custom printed cotton jersey with a medium weight and drape. It is moisture wicking, and is the perfect jersey for summer clothing. Due to it being 95% natural cotton, block colours will appear slightly muted with a desaturated finish, giving it a vintage washed look.
Start Design
Soft Fashion Jersey (poly)
This heavy jersey fabric will give your customised t-shirt the most opaque finish. It is also very soft and elastic, which makes it very comfortable to wear. T-Shirts made out of this jersey are perfect for casual wear and sportswear. The matt finish showcases colours boldly.

Your dress, your label

Sewn flat against the nape, this label won’t flip up or tickle, and it’s made from the same great jersey fabric as the rest of your shirt. Big and bold, these printed labels will get people talking about your brand.

Order the dress and received several emails about the quality alerting me that it would be low quality so I was slightly worried but when the dress was delivered I was really impressed as the quality was not low in my opinion at all! Really impressive and fairly priced!

Frequently asked questions:
Is this Jersey Dress Sheer?
Our Lightweight Jersey 160 is a very light, summery fabric that can sometimes appear slightly sheer when blank, or if printed with a very pale design. Best to personalise this fabric with bold, colourful or dark all-over print designs. All our other fabric options for this product should be fine.
Is this a T-Shirt, or a Dress?
Both! Our T-Shirt Dress is similar to our Slouch Tees, but with a much longer hemline that extends down to mid-thigh. If you prefer a regular, shorter T-shirt, check out our Womens Slouch T-Shirt: or go even shorter with our range of Crop Tops!
What kind of cut is the T-Shirt Dress?
Our custom Jersey Dress comes with a wide scoop neck and cap sleeves: these short, comfortable sleeves sit just above the shoulder and are part of the garment, rather than being sewn on separately.

Print Guideline
What's the best resolution to print in?
We print at 200dpi, which is a good combination of quality and file weight. Ideally your image should be scaled to 100% at 200dpi; this means that no resizing of your file occurs, preventing any interpolation. Our design interface will have a quality marker next to the design that you have uploaded, this will change colour using a traffic light system and display a message. The message will let you know if the resolution is too low or if you have a good quality image.
How will my image scale?
When you upload your design our system will automatically scale it to fit your chosen fabric dimensions. In the ‘Product Image’ tab, the displayed dimensions under ‘Print Size’ will show the dimensions of the piece of fabric that you are ordering. For image/design dimensions you need to see the ‘Images & Text Tools’ tab. You can see and edit the dimensions of the image under the quality information next to the thumbnail.
Which colour model should I choose? RGB or CMYK?
If each individual colour is specifically important to your design, choose CYMK as our setup will print each colour with the closest possible match within our available range. If the relationship between the colours within the image is more important choose RGB; this will reduce all colours equally to fit within our range.
Maximum dimensions
For most of our fabrics there is no limit on the length of the fabric that you can order. We have a preview design window set up to 10m max to visualise the print, but that's not a print limit. If you'd like to order more, increase the quantity (x2 for 20m or x4 for 40m for example) and then you can order as much as you'd like, with a built in automatic volume discount too. The maximum print width of each fabric can be found on the individual fabric pages or in our design interface.
Do I need to incorporate white space within my design if I want a border or some cutting space?
Yes, that might help you! Always incorporate any extra space or boarders into your purchased fabric size. We trim squarely around fabric samples and fabric prints, leaving approximately 5mm white space. Cutting neatly on the line has an additional fee.
Do you print on fabric a customer supplies?
Unfortunately not; we like to test meticulously so that we know what gets best results on our fabrics, and our facilities cater perfectly to them. We do however print sublimation paper to order, and if you have access to a heat press you can press your own fabrics easily.
Should I save my file as a TIFF or JPEG?
For multi-coloured or very detailed files we recommend using a tiff format, but they must be flattened. For simple colours and low detail files, a jpeg is fine.
What is the situation with material shrinkage?
Just like many fabric printing processes, there is the potential for shrinkage. Depending on the fabric, please expect and allow between 2-8% shrinkage which you need to plan for in your dimensions. This percentage can vary from print run to print run and between fabrics, so we would advise to order a little more material than you require for your project.
Can I print on both sides of the fabric?
We do not offer printing on both sides of the fabric, as a lot of our fabrics are semi-transparent. As the customer, you can consider the effect of printing on both sides one of our fabrics and contact us, and we will get back to you if it's feasible.
Can I order labels in another fabric? Will you cut them like you do with the normal fabric labels?
At the moment no, our labels are all printed on the same satin fabric. We may introduce more in the future, but for now this is the best choice. The labels are all cut the same way. You can order the fabric of your choice and make the labels yourself, but we do not cut different fabric into label format.
How is your fabric printing eco-friendly?
With environmental consciousness in mind, our fabrics are all printed using completely water-based inks. This means no chemicals or solvents are used. Our heat fixing procedure fixes the colours and prints, avoiding the downsides of steaming, such as excess or contaminated water returning into the waste system. We have one facility in London where we conduct all the printing, production and fulfillment.
