DTF Printing for Merch & Teamwear

DTF printing offers vibrant, long-lasting designs on nearly any fabric—learn how Sphere Sport’s DTF services can support your brand’s merch and teamwear needs.

What is DTF Printing?

DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing is a modern method of applying full-color designs to fabric using printed film and a heat press. Unlike other techniques, it works on a wide range of materials, including cotton and polyester. For apparel brands, the key benefit is its flexibility—DTF lets you produce detailed, high-quality prints without large minimums.

Advantages of DTF Printing

DTF printing is a strong fit for brands supplying team merch and off-field wear. It delivers bright, full-color logos with no limits on design detail, even on dark or mixed fabrics. With low minimum order quantities at Sphere Sport, it’s easy to offer limited runs or custom drops. Prints are durable, and fast turnaround times help you keep up with demands and trends of your clients.

DTF Printing vs Screen Printing

While screen printing is great for large, simple orders, DTF printing offers more flexibility for merch and off-field apparel. DTF doesn’t require screens, so it’s faster to set up and more cost-effective for small runs or detailed designs. It also prints well on any fabric type, unlike screen printing which can be limited. For full-color, low-quantity merch, DTF is often the better choice.
