About Overall Print
Overall printing (also called all-over print or AOP) uses sublimation to dye the entire garment — front, back, sleeves, side panels, even collars and cuffs — with continuous artwork. There are no print area limits, no color count limits, and no raised print surface.
At SublimApparel, we specialize in all-over sublimation on cut-and-sew apparel. The fabric is printed in rolls, then cut to garment panels, sewn, and finished. Panels are printed together so they match perfectly when assembled.
All-over print is the technique behind most esports jerseys, cycling kits, racing suits, festival merch, and statement streetwear. It is also used for one-off custom designs and limited drops.

How Overall Print Works
- 1
Panel pattern design
Garment is broken into panels (front, back, sleeves, side). Artwork is mapped to each panel with seam allowances.
- 2
Wide-format print
Entire fabric roll is printed in one pass on 1.9m wide sublimation printer at 4,800 × 1,200 DPI.
- 3
Cut panels
Printed fabric is cut to garment panel shapes using CNC cutter or laser for precision.
- 4
Heat-press set
Some all-over prints are heat-pressed at 200°C / 30 sec to ensure full dye transfer.
- 5
Sew & finish
Panels are sewn into final garments. Every seam, hem, and detail is finished in-house.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you do all-over print on cotton?
Sublimation all-over print only works on polyester. For cotton, we recommend DTG (no all-over) or DTF transfers (limited coverage).
Is there a minimum print area?
No. All-over print is the only technique with no print area limits — edge to edge, including over seams.
Can I see a sample before bulk?
Yes. We produce a strike-off sample (1-2 pieces) for sign-off before bulk production. Sample lead time is 7-10 days.
How long does all-over print last?
Lifetime. The dye becomes part of the polyester fiber, so the print is colorfast for the life of the garment.
