FAQ

How does it work?

1. Pick a product and upload a face

Simply choose your product and upload a face photo. We mostly draw Humans, Cats and Dogs (but most two and four-legged creatures are fine - we've mastered cows, horses and even birds!).

Read our Upload Guide to ensure you get the best results. Our upload tool works seamlessly with your PC or mobile. Simply click 'Local file' from the upload box.

2. Your uploaded face is transformed into a work of art

Your photo inspires a one-of-a-kind work of art! Learn more about our artwork types here and view some examples throughout our products.

We'll also send your digital artwork file and a mockup of how your product will look.

3. We produce your swag on-demand

Depending on the product's materials, we transfer your artwork via one of three quality technologies (dye-sublimation, embroidery or DTG)

Because your FACEswag is designed and produced just for you, there's a production timeline. Learn more here.

What type of face can I upload?

We mostly draw Humans, Cats and Dogs (but most two and four-legged creatures are fine - we've mastered cows, horses and even birds!). Each product displays an example of one of these face types, but you can change any product to any face!

Read our Photo Upload Guide to learn how to get the best artwork possible.

How many faces can I have on my FACEswag?

You can select from 1 to 4 faces via the custom option selectors on each product page. Want more? Just reply here with your requirements (number of faces) and we'll send you a direct quote/invoice at a special discounted price. (or send an email - support@faceswag.com.au)

What are the photo upload rules?

We want you to be wrapped with your FACEswag, so there are a few things to consider when uploading a photo.

Be sure to choose a photo shot at eye-level, with the head and shoulders taking up the majority of the frame (our digital artwork includes the head plus neck/shoulders). Do not upload a photo with multiple people. Head-to-toe full body shots are not acceptable as they generally don't capture an appropriate level of facial detail. If you've chosen a Cat or Dog face, your photo may include your pet's body. Sitting poses looking directly at the camera get the best results. However, like all of our designs, your artwork will include only include the head/neck. 

Read our Upload Guide for all the details.

Can I use my logo/artwork?

We sure can. Logos are completely fine (and if yours is of low quality, we can even trace it free-of-charge - perfect artwork transfers are our thing!). Just upload it in place of a face pic. We even offer volume discounts on our range - so get your company, sports club, community group together and save! Reply or email support@faceswag.com.au.

How do I see a preview of my FACEswag artwork/mockup?

After you order, we'll send a preview page (with mock-ups) in 2 biz days so you get exactly what you want. We offer a FULL REFUND if you don't love it (cancel before production). We do require a purchase commitment as the design process is quite intensive. View some REAL orders/artwork here - https://faceswagcustom.com/collections/our-recent-orders

Can I get my original artwork digital file?

Post an artwork rating of your FACEswag and we'll send you your original artwork file (.PNG) that's yours to own!

What artwork transfer technology do you use?

We choose three artwork transfer technologies due to their quality and properties of the materials.

Dye Sublimation

The majority of our product range features dye sublimation artwork transfers. In short, this means better colours and importantly, better durability.

Sublimation is a heat transfer process, which can be printed on much more of a product's total area than other printing methods. This allows us to design dye-sub products with more flexibility.

Dye-sub minimises waste as the process does not release dye into the water system.

Featured products: Fleece Blankets, Hoodies

Embroidery

Nothing beats embroidery when you're going for a timeless, understated look. We use state-of-the-art technology to give you stunning results with multiple thread colours.

Eligible products are clearly marked 'Embroidery' and can all be found in one location here.

Embroidery involves careful photo digitisation, which is included across the entire FACEswag Embroidery collection (this involves refining your image for threat printing at a maximum of 8 thread colours).

Simply upload a face on your chosen Embroidery product page.

Featured products: Shirts, Jumpers

DTG

DTG or 'Direct To Garmet' printing initially involves the application of a 'pre-treat' and white base layer (where required), before the printing of a coloured artwork layer. Your artwork is then set in a special oven. 

This technology has come a long way since it was introduced around the turn-of-the-century. We use printers that focus on colour accuracy, print quality, and durability. 

Our RUSH 7-DAY range is printed using DTG due to the 7-day production and delivery timeline.

What countries do you deliver to?

We ship across Australia, New Zealand, and the UK.

Go here for all the details.

What are your delivery options?

We offer fully-personalised, made-to-order products. So, naturally, it'll take us longer to deliver your items than mass-production stores. To manage this, we offer several delivery options.

Go here for all the details.

What is your returns and refunds policy?

Due to the nature of custom artwork we are unable to accept returns, exchanges or refunds.

Can you share any info about your product quality and fabric country of origin?

We don't believe in stocking cheap and nasty base products. Likewise, most of our our product range is cut, stitched and sublimated to-order. In short, this means better colours and importantly, better durability.

We use today's sophisticated global logistics and shipping services to get all of our product lines to you based on our estimated delivery times.

Our embroidery products, and all t-shirt products are produced with base products with a country of origin of China, India or Bangladesh, Honduras, Haiti, or Nicaragua.

Our dye sublimation range, including Custom Hoodie Blankets, has a country of origin of China.

How can I help stop textile waste?

Each year, a whopping 92 million tons of textile gets shipped off a retail fashion industry cost-of-doing-business annually. You can do your bit to change that. Buy items that you'll value and keep!

On-demand textile services, such as FACEswag, produce significantly less waste than traditional fashion retailers.

Fashion and textile retailers' business models involve scale. They’re incentivised to produce in bulk. As a result, there isn't a secured buyer for every item.

That's where print-on-demand brands like FACEswag differ. We only have a product produced when we have a buyer for a specific item.

Further to this, as we solely offer personalised products at a premium price to mass-produced equivalents, our products are more likely to be valued, used and retained by the buyer.

Overproduction means that items either a) don't get sold (and discarded) or b) undervalued by the buyer.

Do you do discounts for bulk/wholesale orders?

We offer bulk pricing on most of our product range. Check some of our most popular options here - http://faceswagcustom.com/bulk-order We offer full artwork support & quality finishing: including sublimation, embroidery and DTG. Delivery in as few as 4 biz days (t-shirts & std. hoodies). Email support@faceswag.com.au for our price list & brochure.
