Heat Transfer — Full Colorone-time setup $60.00 · Full color

Full-color transfer heat-applies a printed film directly onto the item, bonding it as a thin, smooth surface layer. It reproduces photographic imagery, multi-color artwork, and continuous gradients — capabilities solid spot-color methods cannot match. The finished mark reads as a flat, slightly filmic layer with a subtle sheen at the surface boundary; its strength is color complexity, tonal shading, and fine detail.

Heat Transfer — Four Color / 4CPone-time setup $60.00 · Full color

Four-color-process heat transfer prints your design in CMYK onto a release film, then bonds it to the garment under heat and pressure. It reproduces photographs, gradients, and many-color artwork with continuous-tone fidelity that solid spot inks cannot match. The finished mark reads as a smooth, low-profile layer at the surface; color is built from blended process inks, landing close to brand references rather than as exact spot solids.

From our decoration and product guides

What is a heat transfer imprint?
Heat transfer prints the 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 is a smooth, thin bonded layer that flexes with the material rather than ink soaked into the cloth. More about Transfer →
Can heat transfer print photographs or gradients?
Standard heat transfer prints spot colors as flat solids, so photographic art, gradients and tonal blends are not a fit; those need a process-color transfer, which many products list as a four-color or full-color transfer option. Very small text and hairline elements may also soften slightly at the bonded edge, while crisp lines and fine solid detail hold well. More about Transfer →
Where do I find the dimensions and imprint area of a bag?
Overall dimensions are listed in the Specifications block when the manufacturer provides them, and the Decoration & Imprint section lists each imprint location with its imprint size where that is known. If a measurement you need is missing from the page, ask us through the Questions & Answers form and we will confirm it with the manufacturer. More about Bags →
