Great news dear artists! 🥳

With a core intention of representing your art in its purest essence, we’ve recently improved our production process to offer a higher quality in color tones and vibrancy.

By recalibrating the colors throughout our garment printers, we’re now able to create far more accurate transfer files to print and produce your wearable art. Transfer files, often referred to as TF’s, are what our designers and production team use to bring your art to life. Therefore, by improving their accuracy, we can offer greater quality in mirroring your unique creations. 🎨

Let’s get technical

You’ll most likely notice that our printed colors are now slightly darker, here’s why :

The recent color recalibration allowed us to move from 720X720 dpi to 1440X720 dpi which naturally heightened the ink’s density to better represent your artwork’s TF (transfer file for printing). To give you a better idea of what this looks like, here’s a visual example illustrating this recent improvement :

Image #1 shows a print using the previous color rendition at 720X720 dpi

Image #2 shows the new print with the heightened quality at 1440X720 dpi

Image #3 is the Transfer File (TF) used to print your artworks on your products

Please note that we allow for a maximum of 10% variation in color to show up on the final print. That being said, looking at the illustrated example below, the “new print” looks much more like the TF used to produce your wearable art than before. 😍

Happy news, wouldn’t you say?

Rest assured that slight variations in color in an order placed at the beginning of the year versus one received 6 months later are completely normal. Although we order our ink and paper supply from the same supplier throughout the year, we sometimes receive bulks of equipment that carry differences from one batch to another which can seldom affect our production.

Lastly, another important element to consider when receiving your wearable art products is that all fabrics offer a different canvas for the printing process. For example, the fabric we use to make our leggings is far denser and absorbs more ink than the one used for the Yoko Tunic. You’ll notice that colors appear darker on the tunic than on a pair of leggings. This is all part of the artisanal beauty that makes this creative process so unique! 😃
