If your recipient hates stiff shirts, DTG wins. The print is absorbed into the fibers, so it feels like part of the fabric. Perfect for all-day wear, especially in warmer months. Screen print, on the other hand, has that classic rubbery feel. It softens after a few washes, but it's never as invisible as DTG.

That said, some people love the tactile feel of screen print. It gives a vintage vibe that DTG can't replicate. So think about their style—do they live in band tees or prefer a clean, modern look?
