Our rule of thumb for placement:
Adult shirts- L, Xl and up....
if it is a wide but not tall image, center of design would be between 4-6
inches from the bottom of the collar (adams apple area) unless it is a
v-neck. (look at a 3 button polo shirt-about 2 inches below the bottom
button). Usually this will be about the seam area for the bottom of the
armpit sleeve- approximately 'nipple' high (no offense, ladies...nothing
else to use for reference point!)
For a 'tall' design, the whole design gets centered so that it is between
the belly button and bottom of throat-so nothing falls below the belt line
or hidden under the chin.
For just a 'name' or small logo, left chest, (on polo shirt- even with or
centered on-the bottom button on 3 button shirt, 2nd button up on 4 button
shirt.)
Easy way to double check-just browse your local chain store (Wallyworld,
etc.) and see the 'graphic' shirts in the clothing area and measure.
For kids shirts- now you only have about a 12" area to work with. Where
adult 'name' is 4" below the top of shoulder, on a kid-that's halfway down
his chest-so bring it up to 3/4 or 1/2 of the distance the adult logo
is-again, full image-just above the armpit line.
Watch kids soccer leagues-you can spot the shirts that were done wrong-the
team name or number is around the waist on the little kids-okay on the big
kids. Means that shop didn't compensate for the small shirts!

Hi All,
 
    I have a design 9" x 1.390" going on the front of hooded sweatshirts
from youth small to adult XL, where should I place the design?
 
Thanks in advance
