For over 26 years, Honolulu Shirt Shop has been creating the highest quality custom T-shirts and apparel on Oahu with their screen printing and embroidery services. However, customers often come to them unsure of what type of shirt design they want and are often confused between screen printing and embroidery options.

To help their customers better understand the differences between screen printing and embroidery and in what circumstances you’d want to use each, Honolulu Shirt Shop is here to explain all you need to know about the two options.

Screen printing is the process in which inks are applied to various products, such as apparel, pens, coffee mugs, and even yard signs using a mesh screen and stencil. At Honolulu Shirt Shop, screen printing is an option customers choose to create unique clothing pieces including T-shirts, team uniforms, hoodies, sweat pants, and more. Screen printing allows for high-end designs with vivid colors and is great for printing detailed logos and images onto apparel. Screen printing also allows you to achieve various effects such as a distressed look on clothing and is a fairly inexpensive design option.

Embroidery, unlike screen printing, uses stitched thread to create eye-popping logos and text on apparel. Embroidery is often used on polo shirts, jackets, hats, and other corporate attire. Because embroidery is created with thread, it doesn’t offer as much detail or shading as screen printing does, but it’s popular for its professional, high-quality look. Embroidery is slightly more expensive than screen printing and is not ideal for very small images or text.

Whatever apparel design option you choose, Honolulu Shirt Shop is the go-to custom shirt company in Honolulu. Coupled with their years of experience, helpful staff, affordable prices, and quick turn-around times, Honolulu Shirt Shop has a reputation for creating satisfied customers.
