The Problem

Selling Custom Shirts Shouldn't Mean Manual Artwork.

Without PrintXpand

Manual, Error-Prone Process

  • Customers email logo files and written specs for collar, cuff, and fabric
  • Staff manually mock up each shirt configuration before production
  • No 3D preview — customers approve flat artwork that doesn't reflect the finished product
  • Corporate uniform programs managed through spreadsheets and email chains
  • Embroidery placement errors caught only after garments are produced
With PrintXpand

Automated, Self-Service Design

  • Customers configure collar, cuff, fabric, and colour on a photorealistic 3D shirt model
  • Logo and embroidery placement previewed in real time on the 3D garment
  • Corporate buyers configure team uniforms in brand-locked 3D portals
  • Production spec file generated automatically from the 3D configuration
  • Fewer returns: customers approve the exact shirt in 3D before ordering
3D Capabilities

Configure Every Detail of a Custom Shirt in 3D

Collar Style Switcher

Spread, button-down, mandarin, club, cutaway — customers toggle collar styles in the 3D model and see how each looks with their chosen fabric and color.

Cuff Type Selection

Barrel, French, convertible — each cuff style renders accurately in 3D. Customers pair cuff choices with cufflink options for formal shirts.

Fabric Texture Rendering

Cotton, linen, twill, Oxford — 3D fabric textures show realistic weave patterns and drape. Customers see exactly how the material will look and feel.

Color & Pattern Preview

Solid colors, stripes, checks, plaids — all rendered in real time on the 3D model. Customers mix patterns with collar and cuff style choices.

Embroidery Placement Preview

Monogram initials or corporate logos placed on chest, cuff, or collar — rendered in the 3D view. Stitch style, thread color, and placement all configurable.

Fit Visualization

Slim fit, regular fit, relaxed fit — the 3D model adjusts silhouette to show how the shirt drapes at each fit option. Reduces fit-related returns.

Multi-Zone Customization

Every Part of the Shirt, Fully Configurable

Chest Front

Upload logos, add text, or apply custom graphics to the chest print zone. Position, scale, and rotate artwork with live preview on the 3D shirt model. Supports embroidery, print, and woven badge placement.

Back Panel

Full back panel customisation with independent print area, zone constraints, and bleed guides. Name and number personalisation for team kits — customers enter their own or upload a roster.

Collar and Neckline

Toggle collar style — spread, button-down, mandarin, club, and cutaway — with each option rendered accurately on the 3D model. Add embroidered text or brand label to the collar area.

Left Sleeve

Independent left sleeve print zone for logos, stripes, and text. Preview sleeve artwork in context of the full shirt design. Supports cuff style selection and independent colour configuration.

Right Sleeve

Mirror or independently configure the right sleeve with separate artwork, stripe, or badge placement. Cuff type and cufflink options rendered accurately on the 3D garment for formal shirts.

Hem and Bottom

Hem style, tail length, and bottom edge finish configurable per shirt type. Side split, straight hem, and curved options shown on the 3D model to help customers choose the right fit.
