    Configurator How-To — In 4 Steps to Your Printed Shirt

    In this guide we walk through the ShirtStore configurator together. You'll need: your logo or motif as a file (PNG, SVG, PDF), an idea of the quantity, and 5-15 minutes. At the end you'll have a complete order with live pricing and an estimated delivery date.

    Step 1 — Pick a product

    Start in the configurator and filter by product type first: T-shirt, hoodie, polo, sweatshirt, cap or bag. Then refine:

    • Brand: Stanley/Stella, Fruit of the Loom, B&C Collection, Hakro, Continental Clothing.
    • Material: organic cotton, conventional cotton, blend, technical fabric.
    • Cut: regular, slim, oversized, tailored.
    • Colour: over 30 colour variants per model — black, white, heather grey, royal blue and many pastel tones are the classics.

    Tip: If you're brand-conscious and sustainability-focused, look at Stanley/Stella models — GOTS- and Fairtrade-certified. If you want budget-friendly large runs, Fruit of the Loom is often the most economic choice.

    Step 2 — Set sizes and quantity

    In the second step you enter sizes and quantities. You can mix sizes — e.g. 8 × M, 5 × L, 3 × XL and 2 × XXL for one school cohort. The configurator adds up automatically and shows the total.

    Important to know — discount steps:

    • From 1 piece — standard price.
    • From 25 pieces — first discount step.
    • From 50 pieces — second step.
    • From 100 pieces — B2B best price.
    • From 250 pieces — individual conditions, request via the bulk order form.

    If you're close to a discount step (e.g. 22 pieces), the configurator shows you how much cheaper 25 pieces would be. Often topping up by 3 shirts pays off.

    Step 3 — Upload and place your design

    Now you upload your motif. Accepted formats: PNG, JPG, SVG, PDF and AI up to 50 MB. For sharp prints we recommend 300 dpi for raster files or vector files when your logo is built from clear lines and shapes.

    In the preview area you see your product and can:

    • Pick print position: chest left (standard for embroidery), chest centre, large back, sleeves, back of neck.
    • Adjust size: via slider or by dragging the corners directly. Common: 8-12 cm wide for chest embroidery, 25-30 cm wide for back print.
    • Combine multiple positions: e.g. small logo on the front, large slogan on the back. Each extra position adds the method surcharge to the unit price.
    • Choose finishing: screen printing, digital print, DTF, embroidery, flex or flock. The configurator suggests the most economic method for your run size and motif.

    Tip: For two-colour logos on 50+ pieces screen printing is usually cheaper than digital. For photo motifs or gradients digital print (DTG) is the right choice.

    Step 4 — Submit the order and check the delivery date

    In the last step you see a summary: product, quantity, print position, method, unit price, total and estimated delivery date. You enter the delivery address and payment method:

    • Private buyers: PayPal, credit card, Klarna, instant transfer, prepayment.
    • B2B buyers: additionally invoice with 14-day payment terms — on first orders after a brief credit check.

    After completing the order you receive a confirmation email with a print preview for approval. Only after your print release does the order go into production — so you can still correct anything if you spot something.

    Tips for a perfect result

    • Upload vector files when possible — they scale without quality loss and are the best basis for embroidery jobs.
    • Check colours on screen and, if needed, in print — colours look different on fabric than on a monitor. For critical Pantone colours we recommend a sample print.
    • Mind contrast — dark logo on light fabric (or vice versa) works best. Light logos on light fabrics need a base print (surcharge).
    • Plan a buffer — for fixed delivery dates (season start, trade fair, event) order 2-3 business days before your target date.
    • When unsure, ask — via the bulk order request you'll get advice within 24 hours.
