When the art is big, multi-color or too fine for thread, we press a DTF (direct-to-film) transfer instead. Battle Born Clothing presses them in-house; the transfers are printed by DTF Tribe in Carson City, NV. Quoted per job.

## When DTF beats embroidery on a jacket

- Large back art on windbreakers (Sport-Tek JST73, Independent EXP54LWZ) and smooth polyester shells.
- Logos with gradients, photos, tiny text or more than 15 colors.
- Thin puffers where dense embroidery would pucker and perforate the shell.
- Short runs of complex art where screen setup fees would not make sense (DTF has no screen fees).

## When embroidery is still the right call

A left-chest company logo on a soft shell, fleece or Carhartt should be embroidered. It lasts the life of the jacket and reads as a uniform. DTF on a fleece face or a textured duck shell does not hold as well as it does on a smooth shell.

## Pricing

DTF is quoted per job by print size and quantity. There are no screen or digitizing fees. For reference, our 48-piece screen print rate on a dark tee is $4.34 per location plus $0.25 flash; DTF on jackets is priced separately because the garments and press times differ. Send the art and quantity on the [quote form](/quote/) and we price it the same business day.

## Artwork for DTF

Vector (AI, EPS, PDF, SVG) is best. A 300 dpi PNG with a transparent background at final print size is fine. We confirm size and placement on a digital proof before pressing.

## Questions
**Will DTF hold up on a jacket?** On a smooth polyester or nylon shell, yes, with normal care (wash cold, inside out, no high-heat dryer). On heavy fleece or napped fabric, embroidery is the better choice.

**Can you press DTF on customer-supplied jackets?** Yes, with a $2 per item handling fee and the standard ~4% spoilage allowance that applies to any customer-supplied goods.
