Use DTF when the art needs its colors
If a design has a photo, gradient or several sponsor marks, send the full artwork before committing to a method. DTF may preserve the detail more economically for a smaller run. For a simple single-color logo repeated across many shirts, screen printing may be a better value; we can compare them using the same garment and quantity.
Review fine type and background
A transfer will reproduce the edges of the file you supply, including a low-resolution halo or unwanted background. Send the original high-resolution or vector source, identify any text that must stay legible, and tell us the intended print width. We will show the placement on a digital proof before production.

Ship to a reliable recipient
Boring Tees ships Georgetown orders via UPS or USPS. For campus or event deliveries, choose an address that accepts carrier packages and give us the receiving contact. A one-day event needs the shirts in hand before setup starts; include that date in the quote request so we can confirm timing.
For a dated event, use our DMV event shirt ordering guide.
Is DTF suitable for a multi-color Georgetown event design?
It can be, especially when the design uses gradients or many colors. Send the artwork, quantity and garment choice so we can compare DTF with screen printing for your specific order.
