The stretchiness of the hoody makes a large logo a no-go. The failure rate is huge, as the material shifts while the design is being applied. You'd probably have to pay for 5, on the off-chance of getting 1 that looked right.

On this. Is it possible to order the hoodies from a different supplier that you can print on, like the old ones we used to get? I would pay extra to get a less stretchy hoody that can be printed on.

LWR are the highest quality Hoodys on the market, Rob all fleecy material is a right PIA to print on, all the fancy stuff you see getting around in surf shops etc are either transfers or are printed before the garment is made up, we are battling at the best of times to get a good result on a ready made garment, flat pieces of material can be clamped to a baseboard with a frame, we don't have such luxury.
If anyone wants to come up with a better garment & have a go printing a full back print in 2 colours & getting a perfect result every time.....they can be my guest

I wasn't having a go, I just didn't know if it could be done or not. I remembered the 'Two Questions' hoody was a different feel and wondered if that was the reason they were done but the newer ones weren't.
Also, if anyone knows where my XXL "Two Questions" hoody ended up can you get it back to me please? It was my favourite jumper and I miss it.

mate that was a labour of love, we ruined a heap in the process to do them & swore never again.
