Planning your printed shirts order for Genoa
Timing decides whether printed shirts sell at full price or at a discount in Genoa. Four seasons, with spring-summer lines ordered by autumn; peaks include summer sales (July) and Christmas. For printed shirts specifically, printed shirts sell hardest for spring and summer, beach and resort seasons, and festive weeks; orders for the northern summer are placed October–January. Our lead time is 40–50 days including strike-off approval; digital print samples in 7–10 days, plus sea transit of about 18–28 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.
Typical buyers of printed shirts in Genoa include resort and beachwear retailers, tourist-area boutiques, online fashion sellers and wholesalers supplying summer collections. In Genoa, they usually order 1,000–1,500 pieces per design, with minimum 3 colourways; digital printing allows smaller runs of about 300 pieces per design at a higher unit cost and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.
Fabric, fit and colour choices for Genoa
Italy has distinct seasons, so we split printed shirts into two ranges: lighter fabrics such as rayon challis and viscose twill 100–130 GSM for spring and summer, and heavier options such as linen blends for natural-look prints for autumn and winter.
Sizes: S–3XL regular fit; relaxed and boxy cuts for resort shirts; kids' printed shirts 2–14 years. Colours: Print designs in 4–8 colourways per design; seasonal palettes are suggested for each market.
Printed Shirts made in bulk to your colour, size and design
You are not limited to stock designs. We make printed shirts in bulk in the colour you choose, in the sizes and size ratio your customers wear, and in the design you supply for the Genoa market. A reference garment, a tech pack, a sketch or even a photograph is enough to start.
How it works: send a Pantone code or fabric swatch for colour and we return a lab-dip; send your size chart and the ratio you want in each carton; send artwork, print, embroidery or label files for the design. We make a sample for approval and then produce the bulk to that approved sample, so the order you receive matches the one you signed off.
- Colour: Print designs in 4–8 colourways per design; seasonal palettes are suggested for each market.
- Size: S–3XL regular fit; relaxed and boxy cuts for resort shirts; kids' printed shirts 2–14 years.
- Design and branding: your own artwork, engineered to the garment panels, matching of prints to pocket and placket, exclusive designs held for one importer per market and private labels and custom swing tags.
About our printed shirts
Printed shirts are the fastest-moving fashion line in warm-weather markets, and designs age quickly. That is why we run small-batch digital printing alongside conventional rotary and screen printing: a buyer can test twenty designs, see which sell, and then reorder the winners in rotary quantities.
Print quality depends on the base cloth. Rayon challis drapes well and takes bright colours but shrinks if it is not pre-treated, so we ask the printer to pre-shrink and to wash-test every lot. We photograph the print against your Pantone references so shade differences are caught before cutting, not after loading.
