Frequently asked questions

Find easy care guidance for your custom apparel and totes. Following these recommendations will help your favorite pieces stay fresh, comfortable, and ready to enjoy.

How should I wash my custom shirt?

Turn your shirt inside out and wash it on a gentle or delicate cycle. This helps protect the printed design from friction during washing.

What water temperature should I use?

Use cold water whenever possible. Cold, gentle washing is the best everyday choice for helping preserve the look of your custom shirt.

Can I put my shirt in the dryer?

For the longest-lasting results, air dry your shirt. If you use a dryer, choose a cool or warm setting rather than high heat.

Can I use bleach on printed shirts?

No. Do not use bleach on your custom shirts or tote bags, as it can affect the fabric, color, and printed design.

Can I iron over the design?

Do not iron directly on the print. If ironing is needed, turn the garment inside out or carefully iron around the design.

Do DTF and screen prints need different care?

CrafTees & Totes uses DTF prints and screen prints. One simple routine works well for both: wash gently, avoid bleach and direct ironing, and choose air drying or low dryer heat.

How should I wash a custom tote bag?

Hand wash your tote bag when possible, or use a delicate cycle for a gentle clean. Avoid harsh products and rough washing.

What is the best way to dry a tote bag?

Air dry your tote bag. Hanging or laying it flat to dry helps it keep its shape while protecting the custom design.
