Research notes & open questions

Low cost, broad color/size range and a soft air-jet hand, versus a midweight (not heavy) blend and reduced DTG vibrancy.[1][2][3][8][9]

Heather colors run 40/60 cotton/polyester, raising dye-migration considerations for DTG.[2][3][4]

Printify per-provider prices are not in the catalog API, so cross-provider cost comparison is incomplete.

OEKO-TEX certificate 168252 is provider-stated and unverified in the official registry.

Color x size availability grid and GTINs were not captured (S&S/distributor GTIN pages blocked).

Printful print-file pixel dimensions and DPI are not exposed by the catalog API.

No certified lab test for shrinkage, pilling or colorfastness; only an indicative blog test.

No public technical flats, patterns, grade rules or 3D assets for Beforewear.
