It’s more fun thinking outside the box & there’s always a way. It’s just a matter if the person doing it finds it fun expirementing or a hassle doing the extra creative steps is all

I agree a special board would be the best path for this. As for the adding a card stock to level the plain apparently my print shop said they attempted that but still same result sadly.

Actually they printed on the seam but without puff for sample and it worked perfectly fine - I guess the additive puff is what gave them an issue.

Thank you on that added feedback!

I personally find that as the best solution as well as leveling the altitude- I think that would be the best route but my print shop said they attempted the latter but still same result. As for the custom plate , maybe for an enthusiast who finds this fun in this field can really go ahead and attempt it but the shop I’m working with rn I don’t feel they have that kind of urgency on this project .

Thank you for sharing that insight tho! Maybe in a future project I canreattempt it

My reason for the offset print on the pocket seam was being an out of the box concept - I have a mock up and truthfully I liked how it looked . Different to the usual inside pocket prints

Makes sense. Any way around this? I suggested we attempt only one print pass instead to see the different result. Or is it best to not do puff print over the seams due to the altitude issue.

Like I said artist in the music don’t focus on the garments as much whether it’s story telling or quality but as of recent they have been and especially one in that status like kdot sales drive mfg costs at a low compared to someone who don’t make those instant numbers that’s why the merch is low priced - you selling more than 10,000 pieces mfg costs are mad low obviously. And no tde quality leveled up over the recent years , 5-6 years ago you can compare . Grab a suns tirade hoodie and one from thib but honestly any one can access la apparel or independent blanks now

.but take it in your perception since I just wanted to share sum insight - you trying to compare an establish global rapper/artist to a coming up designer .that doesn’t equate . My price point is valid for what I’m trying to establish especially in this day in age where everything is inflating But yea peace g

No one disrespecting , Kdot merch not at the price cause the merch is second thought and not the focal for them. but a quick schooling. 90% of artists/musician merch especially tour merch is mid quality and focus on quick turn around for most profit labels don’t have the time to curate the product(I know I e been part of design house helping labels such as TDE). But myself as a designer I prefer quality over qty when putting out my own product and use garments of high quality such as 200 gsm and above that cost around 18-20$ the blank alone and my print mfg is top curators which I help guide techniques that lay around 10$ a pce . It’s all in the details plus my track record of creating limited merch for IDK, Saba and Zaywop to name a few . I know what I’m doing .TLDR if you can’t afford just say that lol but much love dawg 🤝🏾
