Goodfellas Merch located in Glendale, AZ. I’m most impressed by this awesome video which clearly shows the passion they have for their work. I had a chance to meet the “fellas” at MAGIC in Las Vegas and they really are “good fellas”. Go figure. Great work Joe, et al!
At last year’s ISS Atlantic City show I was introduced to Jimmy and Drew from American Icon Screen printing in Newburgh NY. It was great meeting Jimmy, clearly a good dude, and a fellow printer who clearly has a real passion for what he does. The night before Thanksgiving Jimmy was run over by at least…
Congratulations to the Canadian hockey team for winning the gold medal with a great final game against Sweden. I’m sure many screenprinters can relate to the way my mind works. I love hockey and I’m enjoying the game, but I’m looking and it appears on the screen that possibly the dye of the red Canadian…

We got a lot of questions about the “Hendrix” prints from my post last week. They were printed by Midiprint in Moscow. Quite possibly the best printer in the world. My man Art is the genius behind it all. Total respect.
TBT Hail Thursday! Old post on depth in screenprinting. Digital is all well and good, but screen printing is deep man. Screen printing has depth. This is a great shirt to illustrate the point. Notice the grey area, that is curable base, no pigment. You can also use very low pigment percentages up to 15%…
On my third and final day at MAGIC I attempted to take in as much as possible in a limited amount of time. As decorators we are all involved in the apparel industry to a greater or lesser extent. It would behoove any decorator to attend MAGIC periodically to get a better understanding of the…
Hanesink.com has to be the most decorator friendly garment website yet. Clear easy to find pantone numbers, easy PDF’s for colors and styles, useful product and lifestyle images, quick navigation, and the first ROI section I’ve seen.
