Designing Custom Socks for Brand Merch
Custom apparel has expanded far beyond standard t-shirts and hats. Over the last few years, custom branded socks have become one of the most highly requested promotional items on the market. They are universally loved, highly functional, and offer a massive canvas for unique, playful designs. When ordering custom socks, you must choose the right manufacturing style.
Understanding the Manufacturing Process
The way your logo is applied changes the entire feel and longevity of the sock.
- The Classic Knit: Jacquard knit socks are the premium standard. In this process, the design is physically woven into the fabric using colored threads, making the logo a permanent part of the garment.
- The Vibrant Sublimation: Sublimation allows for photographic printing where the design is printed directly on top of the fabric. It is great for complex graphics, but the image can stretch and warp slightly when the sock is worn.
