Send us your design or create one online, and collect it in Mogán or have it delivered to any island.

Which technique to choose for your design
DTF (Direct to Film)
The most versatile technique: full colour, works for T-shirts one at a time, and works on almost any fabric and colour, including black.
Sublimation
Only on light-coloured polyester; the colour becomes part of the fibre, ideal for technical T-shirts and edge-to-edge kits.
Screen Printing
More cost-effective the larger the run, with solid colours that hold up well to repeated washing; usual minimum from 25 units.
Embroidery
For small logos with a premium finish: polo shirts, caps and corporate clothing, with raised texture and hard-wearing thread.
Fabrics available
100% Cotton
Comfortable and breathable, for everyday wear and merchandise.
Technical Polyester
For sublimated edge-to-edge sports kits.
Premium / Organic
OEKO-TEX and Fairtrade certifications available on request.

Frequently asked questions
Which technique is best for a single T-shirt?
DTF: there’s no per-unit setup cost and it works in full colour on almost any fabric, so it’s the usual choice for orders of 1 unit.
Can you print on dark T-shirts?
Yes. DTF and screen printing can be used on any fabric colour, including black or navy, without the background colour distorting the design.
What if I have a logo with few colours for lots of T-shirts?
For large runs with few colours, screen printing tends to be the most cost-effective technique, with very solid colours; we’ll advise you based on your exact design and quantity.
