WCT does not offer DTG


Wow! Custom Tees does not offer direct-to-garment printing. This article explains DTG as a general printing method and distinguishes it from the DTF service available at our Midtown shop. For an order from WCT, ask about DTF, screen printing, vinyl printing or embroidery.

What is DTG Printing?

DTG and DTF are different workflows


DTG prints directly onto a garment using specialized equipment. DTF prints a design onto film before transferring it to the garment with heat. Preparation and material requirements depend on the system used. An educational explanation of DTG is not a claim that WCT provides it.


Choose around the actual garment


Share your garment, artwork, intended size and placement, quantity and deadline. We review suitable WCT options for that project. Avoid assuming one method works on every material, always costs less or has a guaranteed wash lifetime.


What if you need an order today?


Routine same-day at WCT is suitable DTF or vinyl only, with garments on hand and available production capacity. We confirm timing before accepting the work. Supplier garments cannot arrive that day, and screen printing and embroidery require different preparation.


Request an offered service


Explore our DTF page or compare DTF with screen printing. Send the project details if you need help choosing, and use the FAQs for our current ordering policies.


Common questions


Do you offer DTG printing?


No. Wow! Custom Tees does not offer direct-to-garment (DTG) printing. We offer DTF, screen printing, vinyl printing and embroidery. Our DTG article is educational and explains how that method differs from the services available here.


What does same-day mean?


Same-day means completing an accepted order during that same workday. Our routine same-day options are DTF and vinyl printing on suitable garments already in store or supplied by you. Availability depends on the order and production capacity. Confirm the completion time with us before relying on a deadline.


What if my preferred garments are not in store?


We can review sourcing options and timing, but garments ordered from a supplier cannot arrive the same day. A supplier order placed before the usual cutoff may be eligible for next-day arrival, subject to availability and shipping delays. We confirm the plan for your order.


Can every fabric be printed or embroidered?


Not every garment works with every method. Material, coatings, construction, seams and the design placement can affect suitability. Send garment details or a photo of the label so we can review the item and recommend an available option.
