The longevity of custom shirt printing depends on several factors, including the type of printing method used, the quality of the blank apparel, and how well the garment is cared for. Here are some common shirt printing methods and their general durability:

 
Screen Printing: Screen printing is known for its durability and longevity. It involves pushing ink through a mesh screen onto your blank shirt, blank hoodie, etc. This method is often used for mass production and is particularly effective for simple designs with a limited number of colors. Properly executed screen prints can withstand numerous washes and maintain their vibrancy.
 
Heat Transfer Printing: Heat transfer or htv printing involves printing a design onto a special transfer paper and then applying heat to transfer the design onto the wholesale shirt. While it’s a popular method for custom and small-batch printing, the longevity can vary depending on the quality of the transfer and the adherence to care instructions. Heat transfers may not be as durable as screen printing in the long run.
 
Direct-to-Garment (DTG) Printing: DTG printing is a digital printing method where the ink is directly applied to the fabric. The durability of DTG prints can be good, but it may not be as long-lasting as screen printing, especially if the garment undergoes frequent washing. Proper care, such as washing inside out and using mild detergents, can help extend the life of DTG prints.
 
Embroidery: While not a traditional printing method, embroidery involves stitching a design onto the fabric. Embroidery tends to be very durable and can withstand multiple washes. However, it is better suited for simple designs due to the complexity and cost associated with intricate embroidery.
 
Dye Sublimation: Dye sublimation involves transferring a design from a printed paper to the fabric using heat and pressure. This method is often used for all-over printing and produces vibrant colors. The prints can be durable, but the longevity may depend on the type of fabric used and the care taken during washing.
