Arcane Engraving provides customized apparel solutions for businesses, crews, organizations, events, and promotional programs.

Apparel Decoration Options
DTF Transfers
DTF, or direct-to-film, is a versatile decoration method that works well for detailed logos, full-color artwork, smaller runs, and designs with gradients or multiple colors. DTF is a strong option when you need flexibility without the higher setup requirements of traditional screen printing.
DTF is commonly used for:
- Company shirts
- Event shirts
- Hoodies and sweatshirts
- Promotional apparel
- Multi-color logos
- Small to mid-size apparel orders
- Designs with fine detail or full-color artwork
Screen Printing
Screen printing is a proven option for larger apparel orders, simple designs, bold graphics, and repeat production runs. It provides a clean, consistent look and can be a cost-effective choice when producing higher quantities of the same design.
Screen printing is commonly used for:
- Bulk company shirts
- Crew uniforms
- Event and fundraiser shirts
- Construction and contractor apparel
- School, club, and organization apparel
- Promotional giveaways
- Large quantity repeat orders
Why Choose Custom Apparel?
Professional Brand Presentation
Branded apparel helps create a consistent, professional look for your team. Whether your employees are on a job site, in a showroom, at an event, or meeting with customers, customized apparel keeps your business visible and recognizable.
Flexible Production Options
Not every apparel order is the same. Some jobs call for full-color DTF transfers, while others are better suited for screen printing. We help match the decoration method to your artwork, quantity, garment type, and use case.

Create a consistent look across your team with branded shirts, polos, hoodies, or workwear. Custom apparel is a practical way to improve brand recognition while giving employees clothing they can use every day.
Contractor and Job Site Apparel
For construction, electrical, utility, industrial, and service-based companies, branded apparel helps crews look organized and professional while keeping your company name visible in the field.
Events and Promotions
Custom shirts and apparel are effective for company events, trade shows, fundraisers, customer appreciation gifts, and community programs. DTF and screen printing both provide practical options depending on the size and style of the order.

For companies that need repeat apparel orders or employee gear, we can help build a consistent approach for garment selection, decoration placement, sizing, and fulfillment.
Branded Merchandise
Custom apparel can be used as part of a broader branded merchandise program alongside engraved items, embroidered products, signage, drinkware, and corporate gifts.
Our Process
1. Tell Us What You Need
Send us the type of apparel you are looking for, estimated quantity, logo or artwork, preferred colors, sizes, and any deadline you are working toward.
2. Artwork Review
We review your artwork to determine the best decoration method. Some designs are better suited for DTF, while others may be better for screen printing depending on the number of colors, detail level, and order quantity.
3. Product Selection
We help identify apparel options that fit your budget, use case, and brand standards. If you already know the exact garment you want, we can work from that as well.
4. Quote and Approval
Once the garments, decoration method, quantities, and design placement are confirmed, we provide a quote for approval before production begins.
5. Production
After approval, we produce your customized apparel with attention to placement, consistency, and overall presentation.
6. Pickup or Shipping
Completed orders can be prepared for pickup or shipping based on your needs.
DTF vs. Screen Printing
Both DTF and screen printing can produce high-quality custom apparel. The best option depends on the order.
DTF is often a good fit for smaller runs, full-color designs, detailed artwork, and orders with multiple garment types or design variations.
Screen printing is often a good fit for larger quantities, simple logos, bold designs, and repeat orders where setup cost can be spread across more pieces.
If you are not sure which method is best, we can review your order and recommend the most practical option.
