Decoration & Imprint
3 methods
Your logo is placed on the front panel of the backpack. Screen printing applies crisp, opaque ink directly onto the fabric, embroidery adds a raised, textured stitch, and heat transfer bonds a smooth, thin layer that flexes with the material. For bold spot-color artwork, screen printing or embroidery delivers strong coverage; for a low-profile mark, heat transfer is a good option.
Print1 color/location included · one-time setup $110.00 · Up to 2 colors
Screen printing presses ink through a fine mesh stencil, laying down each color as a separate pass. Each color lays down as its own premixed spot ink, printing solid and consistent across the run. The applied mark is flat and opaque, sitting on top of the material with crisp edges; on heavy coverage, you can feel a slight raised texture where ink builds up. The cured ink is durable and holds up to repeated handling and washing.
EmbroiderFull-color imprint · 1 location included · one-time setup $110.00
Embroidery stitches your design directly into the fabric, building artwork from dense, interlocking threads rather than laying ink on the surface. Each color is its own thread in a solid shade. The result is a raised, tactile mark with the soft sheen of thread and a slightly dimensional edge. Each shape reads as a clean, saturated block, and the sewn-in design resists fading, peeling, and wear through repeated washing.
Heat Transfer1 color/location included · one-time setup $110.00 · Up to 4 colors
Heat transfer prints your design in premixed spot inks onto a film, then bonds that film to the surface under heat and pressure. Each color goes down as its own solid ink, so edges stay crisp and color stays even across the mark. The result reads as a smooth, thin bonded layer — low-profile and flexible enough to move with the fabric, not ink soaked into the cloth.
