This Week in Catalog: June 12, 2026

Hi there. I will be out of the office next Friday so there will be no blog post next week. It looks like we might be able to release two new catalogs before I leave for vacation mid-week, Pennant Sportswear and the generic hard goods. However, it's possible that one or both may have to wait until after my return on June 24.

We are making excellent progress getting the sizes reordered in the AS Colour catalogs. We have completed the UK version, with 90 products updated, and Australia, with 132 products updated. We've finished 134 products so far in the EU version. We're working on the June update for S&S Activewear, though it is rolling out a little more slowly than usual. S&S discontinued their use of the Canto image system and we have to perform extra image processing as part of our workflow until the new service is ready and transparent images are available. So far, we've added 29 new products and update 3. In S&S Canada, we have updated 33 products. In our upcoming new catalogs, we've configured 10 more products in Absolute Apparel and 25 in Pennant Sportswear. We are still at work on the Prestige Leisure expansion, adding 20 new products. Last, but not least, we updated 2 products in SanMar and 1 in PenCarrie.

This Week in Catalog: June 5, 2026

Hello. I think Robert Burns once said something about best laid plans. My plan to release the generic hard goods catalog this week did, indeed, go awry. Development needs to add some new functionality to the DecoNetwork system in order for this catalog to work as intended. At this point, I cannot say when the catalog will go live, but the first round of products are ready.

We had a productive week in catalog, nonetheless. The AS Colour family of catalogs have all had their monthly update, including 5 new products for the EU, 2 updated products in Australia, 3 updated products in the US, and 187 updates in the UK. We have added 51 products in Prestige Leisure. In our forthcoming catalogs, we have configured another 30 products for Absolute Apparel and 19 for Pennant Sportswear. Lastly, we have updated 56 products in S&S Canada and 30 in PenCarrie, 5 products in SanMar Canada, and 1 in S&S Activewear.

SanMar acquires BELLA+CANVAS, and the decorated apparel industry is watching closely. For print shops, screen printers, embroidery businesses, DTF decorators, and promo distributors, this is more than supplier news. BELLA+CANVAS is expected to keep operating with its own brand identity, leadership, premium blank apparel line, and authorized wholesale distributor network. That means decorators can continue relying on the modern fits, soft fabrics, and retail-inspired styles customers already love. The potential upside is SanMar’s scale: stronger inventory support, broader resources, and more room for BELLA+CANVAS to keep innovating.

This Week in Catalog: May 29, 2026

Hello. We have received data for the rollout of Pennant Sportswear and will begin configuring the products next week. ETA for publication is sometime mid-June. The top 50 items plus their companion pieces will give us a total of 71 products for the initial release. We also plan to publish the new generic hard goods catalog next week and have planned the first expansion for it, products based on the Polar Camel drinkware items from JDS.

Let's take a look at the production numbers from the past two weeks. We've configured 77 more products in the upcoming Absolute Apparel catalog and 94 new products in the Prestige Leisure expansion. In PenCarrie, we added 5 new products and updated 105. The May update for Ralawise was small, with 3 new products and 7 updates. We're still working on an S&S Canada update, adding 28 new products and updating 30. The S&S Activewear update is done with the final 2 new products and 50 updates. Miscellaneous projects included 1 new product and 16 updates in Uneek, 4 updates in SanMar, 1 update in JB's Wear, 1 update in BTC Activewear, and 1 update in Canada Sportswear.

DTF printing rewards speed, but great results still start with the right creative workflow. The best software helps you create cleaner artwork, sharper mockups, smoother approvals, and fewer production headaches.

1. Adobe Illustrator: Ideal for vector logos, bold typography, mascots, badges, and scalable artwork that stays crisp at any size.

2. Adobe Photoshop: Built for photo-based designs, background removal, color edits, textures, and detailed raster graphics.

3. DecoNetwork: Perfect for turning DTF designs into sellable products with mockups, quotes, orders, approvals, online stores, and production tools connected in one place.

4. Canva: Great for quick concepts, customer visuals, social graphics, event shirts, and simple design direction.

5. ChatGPT: Helpful for design ideas, niche research, slogans, product copy, prompts, captions, and customer messaging.

The takeaway: Better DTF printing starts when creativity and workflow work together.

Wilcom blocks EMB files when its software identifies files created or edited with pirated EmbroideryStudio. For embroidery shops, one bad EMB file can stall production, delay approvals, and create messy back-and-forth with digitizers, contractors, and customers. The solution is to reject the blocked file, ask the supplier for a clean EMB file made with licensed Wilcom software, and verify it before scheduling production. Build a safer embroidery workflow by using trusted digitizers, checking file sources, and testing EMB files early.
