What it is for
Socks are the low-stakes gift that gets worn constantly. A printed pair with a face, a pet or a pattern is a reliable laugh.
The design is printed flat and then stretches on the foot, so lines look thinner when worn.
Direct-to-garment (DTG) printing
Direct-to-garment printing works like an inkjet printer for fabric: water-based ink is sprayed into the fibres and cured with heat.
It prints full colour in one pass, so a photograph or a gradient costs the same as a single word. On dark fabric a white base layer goes down first so the colours stay true.
On light fabric the print is barely felt; over a white base on dark fabric it is slightly firmer, like a soft film.
Designs that suit it
Small repeating motifs read best. A single face or object can work, but it stretches over the heel and shin when worn.
The print area is on the front: 2,365 × 1,830 pixels, about 7.9 × 6.1 in at 300 dpi — a roughly square area. The studio generates the design at that size, so it is printed from a full-resolution file rather than an enlarged preview.
Photographs, paintings, detailed illustration and small type all hold. Less suited: very fine hairlines and large solid blocks of colour on dark fabric, where the base layer is most noticeable.

Before you order
How long does the Christmas Sock (Polyester) take to arrive?
To Canada, 7–15 business days, with first-item shipping at $11.36 CAD; to the US, 7–15 business days ($13.14 CAD). It is printed to order in Putian City, Fujian, China, and the window counts from the day you order, printing included.
Can I put a photo on the Christmas Sock (Polyester)?
Yes. DTG prints in full colour from the image file, so photographs and paintings reproduce well; they look best on high-cotton fabric. The print file is 2365 × 1830 pixels on the front, so a photo should be at least that size to print sharply.
When should I order the Christmas Sock (Polyester) for Christmas?
With standard shipping, by December 4 to Canada and December 4 to the US. Those dates count this product's longest delivery window back from December 25 in business days. Express shipping at checkout, where it is offered, shortens the window.
How do I look after the Christmas Sock (Polyester)?
It is DTG-printed, and that sets the care. Wash inside out in cold water. Tumble dry low or hang to dry. Do not iron directly over the print. No bleach or fabric softener on the printed area.
