Having T-shirts printed – what does it really cost?

Table of Contents

    You want to have T-shirts printed – but how much does that actually cost? The answer is: it depends. But don't worry, we'll break it down for you so you know exactly where you stand.

    What influences the price of T-shirt printing?

    The price for T-shirt printing depends on several factors:

    • Quantity: The more pieces, the cheaper it gets per shirt. But with DTF printing, even 1 piece is possible – with no minimum quantity.
    • Print size & position: A small chest logo costs less than a large full-print on the back.
    • Design complexity: Simple lettering vs. photorealistic image – both are possible, but they influence the price.
    • Textile quality: Basic shirt from approx. €5 vs. premium shirt up to €20 – you choose what fits your budget.
    • Printing method: DTF printing is ideal for small quantities and full-color designs, and is often cheaper than screen printing for small numbers.

    What does a printed T-shirt actually cost?

    As a rough guide at Markendruckerei:

    • 1 piece with simple front print: from approx. €19.99 incl. shirt
    • 10 pieces with front logo: significantly cheaper per piece
    • 50+ pieces for teams or clubs: tiered pricing upon request

    Important: We have no setup fees and no minimum order value. You only pay for what you order.

    DTF printing – why it is so affordable for small quantities
