A note from Jeff Howard:

I remember sitting in the stands in March of 2001. Indiana State was playing in the second round of the NCAA Tournament, and my son Marcus was out there on the court. A memory I will never forget.

Like any parent, you’re just watching every possession. You don’t relax for a second.

And that night, he had one of those games. He finished with 16 points, hit 4 threes, and was named the Chevrolet Player of the Game. The team ended up losing to Gonzaga, but that didn’t change how I felt watching it.

To this day, that’s the proudest I’ve ever been. Not just because of the points or the recognition, but because of how he played.

He was prepared. He stayed steady the whole game. And he didn’t shy away from the moment. That’s what sticks with you.

When I look at Marcus today, leading the team here at Howard Custom Transfers, I see a lot of the same things.

He shows up ready. He puts in the work. And when it’s time to step up, he does. Different environment, but the same approach.

If you know me, you know how much I love this time of year. March Madness never disappoints and has a way of creating unforgettable moments. Hope you get a chance to enjoy some games this week.

You thought this print was just black & white…didn’t you? 😌

Wait for it…

Our Glow in the Dark screen print transfer goes from subtle to statement when the lights go out. 💚

One color. Infinite depth.

Halftones make this single-color Howard Multi-Purpose print feel three-dimensional, dynamic, alive.

Even if one-color plastisol prints fall in the Base category of your pricing menu, the addition of halftones adds that extra pop and visual interest—far from basic.

As a showroom piece, it demonstrates how precision and clever design create impact without clutter, teaching buyers what “crafted” feels like.

Built-in character never goes unnoticed. ✨

This Vintage Wash pickleball print isn’t just faded—it tells a story. The worn, bleed-through look and soft hand give each piece personality, making it feel lived-in and approachable while still signaling retail quality.

This transforms a standard shirt into something customers notice, helping them understand the difference between ordinary and intentional design.

A single Vintage Wash piece can elevate your collection, showing buyers how texture, tone, and finish create pieces that feel thoughtful, curated, and drive higher perceived value—leading to better margins.

Specialty finishes work best when they’re part of the design concept from the start.

This Glow in the Dark design is a perfect example. The Glow layer is applied only over the White Howard MP ink areas for maximum Glow effect.

On a showroom wall, this kind of design guides customers toward higher-value choices and shows exactly what “premium” looks like in your collection.

Used intentionally, it doesn’t just impress—it tells a story that leads to bigger orders.

How would you use specialty finishes to elevate your own showroom samples?

Today is and we want to take a minute to brag on our team here at HCT. 💚

These are the hands behind your transfers.
The ones mixing ink, reviewing artwork, running presses, inspecting prints, and packing every order that leaves our shop.

This kind of work takes focus.
It takes pride.
And it takes a team of people who genuinely care about doing things the right way.

Around here, craftsmanship still matters. And we’re lucky to have a crew that shows up every day ready to prove it.

Showing some love to the artists, press operators, reps, pre-press team, managers, and everyone in between who make it all happen.

Thanks for everything you do. 👏

Some substrates challenge every decorator.
Waterproofed fabric? Among the hardest.

This DTF print applied to this waterproof jacket flawlessly with a professional finish that feels intentional.

On a showroom wall, this signals expertise and teaches your customers what’s possible.

Premium finishes aren’t always about shine or glitter.
They’re about precision, reliability, and solving problems other prints can’t.

Placed correctly, pieces like this define your hierarchy, guide attention, and make your showroom samples feel curated, confident, and premium.

You don’t build a showroom to show everything.
You build it to guide customers’ decisions.

This month, we’re focusing on sample pieces that do more than look good on the wall. They help customers see value, feel different finishes, and understand why one option costs more than another.

Every sample garment has a job. If it doesn’t spark a conversation or support your pricing structure, it doesn’t earn wall space.

What’s one sample from your showroom that your customers always reach for first?
