Printed Shirts — overview
Resort, casual and tropical printed shirts in rayon, viscose and cotton, from short-sleeve beach shirts to full-sleeve party wear. It belongs to our men's casual & formal wear range, part of the garments & apparel division of Hurain Garments Exporter.
Men's casual and formal wear is the largest single line in India's apparel exports, and the one importers reorder most often. Tiruppur and Ludhiana make knitted T-shirts and polos, Ahmedabad and Bengaluru make denim and woven shirts, and Mumbai and Delhi NCR make trousers and cargo wear. We work with factories in these clusters so a buyer can put jeans, shirts, T-shirts and trousers on one purchase order and one container.
Every style is sampled before bulk. We agree the fabric, wash, fit block, size ratio, label and packing on a pre-production sample, then inspect against that sample at 100% for measurements and visual defects on an AQL basis before the goods are loaded.

About our printed shirts
Printed shirts are the fastest-moving fashion line in warm-weather markets, and designs age quickly. That is why we run small-batch digital printing alongside conventional rotary and screen printing: a buyer can test twenty designs, see which sell, and then reorder the winners in rotary quantities.
Print quality depends on the base cloth. Rayon challis drapes well and takes bright colours but shrinks if it is not pre-treated, so we ask the printer to pre-shrink and to wash-test every lot. We photograph the print against your Pantone references so shade differences are caught before cutting, not after loading.
Many importers use printed shirts as a bridge product: they add a few designs to a container of basics such as T-shirts and jeans, which spreads the minimums and keeps the shelf fresh without a large commitment.

Sizes: S–3XL regular fit; relaxed and boxy cuts for resort shirts; kids' printed shirts 2–14 years.

Printed Shirts made in bulk to your colour, size and design
You are not limited to stock designs. We make printed shirts in bulk in the colour you choose, in the sizes and size ratio your customers wear, and in the design you supply. A reference garment, a tech pack, a sketch or even a photograph is enough to start.
How it works: send a Pantone code or fabric swatch for colour and we return a lab-dip; send your size chart and the ratio you want in each carton; send artwork, print, embroidery or label files for the design. We make a sample for approval and then produce the bulk to that approved sample, so the order you receive matches the one you signed off.
- Colour: Print designs in 4–8 colourways per design; seasonal palettes are suggested for each market.
- Size: S–3XL regular fit; relaxed and boxy cuts for resort shirts; kids' printed shirts 2–14 years.
- Design and branding: your own artwork, engineered to the garment panels, matching of prints to pocket and placket, exclusive designs held for one importer per market and private labels and custom swing tags.
