Custom DTF Transfer

Full-color heat transfers. Photographic quality. Any fabric.

DTF (Direct-to-Film) is the most fabric-flexible heat transfer we make — vibrant on dark or light fabrics, soft hand-feel, durable through 50+ wash cycles. Upload your artwork, cut to your exact size, ready to press.

Unlike rhinestone (solid color blocks) or HTV (cut shapes), DTF prints your full image — gradients, photographs, complex multi-color illustrations — directly onto the transfer.

Custom DTF transfers applied to tank top, backpack, T-shirt, cap, and racerback

How it works

From upload to your doorstep in five steps.

  1. Upload your artwork

    JPG, PNG, WEBP, or GIF — high resolution recommended (PNG with transparent background works best for clean edges).

  2. Set your size

    Width and height in inches — no hard size limit per piece.

  3. Choose your cut

    As-a-Roll for bulk runs, or Pre-Cut Each for ready-to-press pieces (+$0.35/piece).

  4. Set quantity

    Volume discounts apply automatically. Single pieces to 10,000-piece runs.

  5. Quote, pay, produce

    Real-time pricing, no setup fee on DTF. We print, cut, and ship from our LA workshop.

Cutting options

Choose how your transfers ship — economical roll or production-ready pieces.

Most economical · Bulk runs

As a Roll

Standard pricing

Most economical option for bulk runs. You receive the transfers on a roll, ready to cut each piece yourself before pressing. Best for in-house production teams with their own cutting capacity.

Ready to press · Per piece

Pre-Cut Each

+$0.35 per piece

We cut every piece individually in our LA workshop, ready to apply the moment they arrive. Best for small batches, gift orders, or print shops without their own cutting equipment.
