"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
I see the same thing, especially on numbers when the local teams bring me their pre-printed jerseys for names. I also often have to run my names off center because of the number position. We all know that sports leagues are notorious bottom feeders, often shopping for price alone.Also, classically, real sports jerseys were printed thick, through lower mesh, with stretchy inks. Seems to be the last holdout.
Badly as in..
you got that right frog bottom feeders i noticed most established screen printers do not want to deal with team apparel unless they doing a favor for a good customer
