Correction at -20:15: I said Epson 7710 is not a good printer. I stand corrected as many reviews seem to like that one. I meant the smaller one in my mind Epson 2750 that needs to be converted. We didn’t have the best experience dealing with the converted cartridges for daily long term use. We’d need to restart and reboot them a lot. Things have evolved and improved with technology since then as this was in 2016 we used that setup. So I’d check some more printer reviews online before making your final purchase! 👌🏽
Thanks for the motivation, been sitting on too many supplies and some times feel too scared to start testing cause I don’t want to waste anything but that’s a great point that I’m really wasting money by wasting time!
I'm still new to sublimation and started off with the ET-2720 printer, because I didn't want to mess with the cartridges of the 7720. I already had a 15x15 Fancier Studios heat press to start off with as I was doing vinyl t shirts. I just recently upgraded to a 16x24 Fancier Studios heat press as it has been good to me and haven't had no issues with the brand. I am looking to upgrade to the F570 to print bigger product, so hopefully in the next few months is my goal to get it.. thank you for all the info and advice you all have been providing, very helpful.
I’m going to take this gem 💎 I have purchased socks from you and got the stress ball and said “what is this” 😁 but thank you❤️ the business can get a little stressful .. I love creating & you have great quality socks/products..I absolutely love them...Thank you 😊
Thank you so much for showing your process. I own a small pet clothing store and this gives me an idea for new products that we can offer. 😊 Did you also hire a graphic designer ? Or is it okay to use readily available designs in the internet? Thank you
For the athletic sock jig, it covers size M/L/XL, correct? I am baffled to why the sales page for the socks say printable area of 4.25" x 7.5" for the L and XL socks, but 4" x 7.5" for the Medium. Why the difference for Medium? I'm needing to figure out if I need to adjust artwork for the different sizes.
For the medium we cut the jig down about a quarter inch. However we don’t sell a separate jig for medium. So you may cut it down yourself to 4” wide. Or just use the same jig as the L/XL. Either way would work and I’d do what you feel brings about a better result.
The $13 is retail pricing on blanks. However if you setup a wholesale account on our website it will be 50% off that price! Easy to get setup an anyone can apply: silkysocks.com/pages/silky-socks-wholesale-application-form
@@SilkySocks thanks I already signed up before I saw this. Thanks you guys are the best!! Just ordered a couple sample packs to get started. I expect to be buying again real soon.
We stay away from this as we only like to deal with sublimation at it’s purest form on white polyester. But yes I’ve heard of this and Personally I don’t like the end result all that much
It is other solutions if you can’t get a laser printer it’s sublimation paper that works for regular inkjet printers and it’s mini heat press you can purchase that works against sublimation items you do not have to get these he’s saying to do a sublimation job it’s other TH-cam videos that show you other options for those who can’t or don’t want to spend extra money

Awesome video! Which type of EPSON Ecotank printer do you recommend (or does it even matter?)?
Do you know if that Ink would work in an F570?
thanks for sharing
What kind of paper do you print on?
Hello
What brand of fabric pens are those?
How do I get your hear press?

Do you have blanks in kids sizes?
Great video!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏👍🏻
In which country do you manufacture your blanks?
Thank you
Anytime :)
How do we know our size when be buy socks is there a specific size for a shoe size like a range
Yes. It’s listed on our website FAQ page. But medium is 6-8 shoe size, large 8-12 and XL 12-15. Small 3y-5y
Where can I buy a heat press like that large black one?
It’s from Heat Press Nation. They’ve been sold out of them lately :/
@silkysocks What software do you use for design ?
Hello! We mainly use Adobe Photoshop and Affinity for designing!
Good video thanks

Were do you get your sock and tee
We supply socks on silkysocks.com in our blanks section. We don’t sell shirts but we have lots of other sub blanks we carry
What if you can’t afford a $2500 printer can you start off with a cheaper printer and heat press?
Between Epsom F570 and Sawgrass SG1000 which would you choose?
I’d go f570 :)
I see people spraying polycyclic/water on 100 percent cotton shirts to sublimate do you know of any downsides to doing this?
We stay away from this as we only like to deal with sublimation at it’s purest form on white polyester. But yes I’ve heard of this and Personally I don’t like the end result all that much
What Sublamation Ink do you use
We use a brand called Kian Digital. It’s suitable for our wide format Mutoh RJ 900X printers
@@SilkySocks hello my friend do you recommend this ink also for ecotank epson printers or f570? Thanks
What program do you use to design?
We use Photoshop and illustrator mainly
quality content
Hello, do you serve a 40x50 heat press? Do I drop your inserts? Best regards
Didn’t get a stress ball ⚽️ lol

I’m in let me know?
In the Fb group? You should be approved by now let me know 👌🏽
Thanks for the video. You're awesome?
Thank you 😊🙏🏽
@@SilkySocks you are welcome.
So the million $ question is where do we get art?
You can hire free lancers to make artwork for you. Another great way is purchase designs from fb groups, websites or artists that specialize in that!
