Optimal Design Size
The size of your merch designs is essential for optimal print results. Our recommendation: Set up the longest side of your design with at least 4000 pixels. This allows your design to be scaled razor-sharp on any print area – regardless of the product, without loss of quality.
Design tools like Canva allow you to easily adjust the size of your designs to whatever you want. This makes it easy to upload your designs onto multiple products – T-shirts, stickers, tote bags – with ZERO issues!
Customize Your Products
We give shop owners the freedom to experiment with different design placement on their products. The standard front-and-center design on T-shirts, hoodies and other merch products can get old.
Take your logo or any design and downsize it so it fits on the top right of your chest, like shop owner Nena Shelby did, or the side of your sleeve. And any design looks great on the back of T-shirts, sweatshirts, and hoodies for fun change-up. These small design changes will make your merch more unique and appealing to your audience. Customize hundreds of products with your unique designs.
