Supply artwork at final size

Show line weights, text, colours and gradients at the intended dimensions. Ask what will be simplified and whether the garment colour changes the process.

Compare feel and use

Discuss breathability, flexibility, washing, abrasion and whether the decoration sits on or integrates with the fabric. Inspect a comparable sample.

Record production details

Confirm setup, colour count, personalisation, proof type, tolerances and repeat-order file retention. Keep the approved version with care instructions.
