Custom Sublimated Christmas Singlets - Design Your Own Festive Look

Sublimating Christmas designs onto cotton singlets is not possible, because sublimation only works on polyester or fabrics with a high polyester content. The ink needs polyester fibres to bond with, and on cotton the colours wash out quickly. This is why we print our sublimated Christmas singlets on 100% polyester. Sublimation also gives its best colour on white or light-coloured fabric, so we use light bases to keep your festive designs bright and true to the artwork.

Polyester singlets are comfortable in the Australian summer because they are lightweight, breathable and quick-drying. They handle hot Christmas Day weather, backyard barbecues and outdoor events well. Because the design is printed into the fabric rather than layered on top, there is no heavy or stiff print area, and the singlet stays soft against the skin.

Each singlet can have a different name, number or design, because sublimation is a digital process. You can keep one festive design across the whole group and personalise each singlet with its own name or message. This suits workplace teams, sporting clubs, school groups and families who want a matching Christmas look with a personal touch.

The artwork you need to supply for a custom Christmas singlet is a high-resolution logo, illustration or photo, saved as a PNG, PDF or vector file for the sharpest result. If you only have an idea or a low-quality image, our Sydney team can help you prepare or recreate the design so it prints cleanly across the singlet.

A sublimated Christmas singlet should be washed inside out in cold water with a mild detergent, avoiding bleach and fabric softener. It should then be hung to dry or tumble dried on a low heat, and never ironed directly over the print. Looked after this way, the colours stay vibrant for many Christmases to come.
