Sizing tips (how to get it right) ЁЯУПтЬЕ

The easiest way to size bandanas is by neck measurement, not weight.

Best practices:

  • Offer 2тАУ3 sizes (Small / Medium / Large) to reduce sizing questions
  • Include a simple тАЬhow to measureтАЭ graphic on your product page
  • Keep designs flexible (patterns + corner logos look great across sizes)

Artwork setup (so it prints clean) ЁЯОитЬЕ

Bandanas are fabric, so set your art up for real-world wear:

  • Use vector files where possible (AI / PDF / SVG)
  • If using PNG/JPG, aim for 300 DPI
  • Keep important details away from the edge (hemming can trim details)
  • For patterns: ensure the design tiles seamlessly
  • For logos: avoid super thin lines and tiny text (fabric texture can soften detail)
