Choose Hoodie printing side
Printing on the Front side of the Hoodie is available for all the clients globally. The clients who are using Cloudprinter’s Print API have printing Front and Back side options available. To print on both the Front and Back sides, choose the templates for your size and upload 2 files to send your Hoodie for global print.
- Keep in mind print area on Hoodie Front and Back sides
The print areas don't change depending on the size of your Hoodie. Because of the kangaroo pocket, the print area is different on the Front and Back sides of the Hoodie, so make sure to choose the file with the corresponding name. When designing the Front side of the Hoodie, include your image within the 14x8.6 in (355.6х218.4 mm) limits. Include your picture within the limits of 14x16 inches (355.6x406.4 mm) while designing the Back side of your Hoodie. You can either print a picture in the maximum possible size 14x16 inches (355.6x406.4 mm) or place a picture of a smaller size wherever you want within the limits of the print zone. It concerns printing both on the Front and Back sides of your Hoodie. - Choose Hoodie picture
Make sure your picture quality and size are appropriate for the Hoodie print area. That's important to make sure the picture isn't blurred and meets your expectations when printed. You can go for a multi-colour or 1-2-colour picture — whatever is better for you.
