Q: Does screen print or DTG last longer on graphic tees?

Screen print generally lasts longer, especially with plastisol or water-based inks. DTG prints are thinner and can fade or crack after repeated washing, particularly if the tee is worn in hot, sweaty conditions.

Q: Which printing method is more breathable for hot weather?

Screen print, especially with water-based inks, is more breathable. DTG prints sit on top of the fabric and can trap heat, making them less comfortable in high temperatures.

Q: Can DTG prints handle frequent washing?

DTG prints can handle washing if you follow care instructions, but they are more prone to fading and cracking over time than screen prints. In hot climates where you wash more often, screen print is a safer bet.
