Pink Flock and Gold Flex, originally uploaded by spreadshirt_usa.
I have been trying to add more pictures of what the colors actually look like in real life. This picture shows off a couple of our products.
Baby Bib (on left) - white bib with gold metallic flex (I love the gold on white)
Juniors Distressed Hoodie (top) - navy hoodie with pink flock
Cinch Sack (right) - blue sack with pink flock, the cinch sack has a grid pattern to the fabric
The pink flock looks just awesome on the darker blues (note the cinch sack is a bit lighter than the navy hoodie)

i still don’t understand flock. it’s raised and textured? the pictures look good, but they don’t really show the difference. what about an extreme close up? i’m scared to try flock.
is the “craft congress” design a special vector design? i don’t see these kind of block letters in the confomat system although i really like block letters and would love to seem some added to the font options.
Hi Veggie,
Thanks for the comment. I know flock can be kind of confusing. Flock is slightly raised and fuzzy, so yes it is textured.
I know it is kind of hard to see in this picture but the gold print on the bib is very flat and that pink print on the bag is raised. It reminds me of those old t-shirts from the 80’s that had fuzzy letters.
don’t be afraid of flock! Flock is fun.
The Craft Congress lettering is part of the Craft Congress logo - so it is not a font. But we are testing some new fonts to see how the hold up in the production process - stay tuned for new fonts.

I’d also like some extreme closeups, especially of the gold. I have some commercially made shirts with gold and silver metallic, and if the quality of this metallic flock is on par, that would be spectacular.
@Gozu - Check out this post http://blog.spreadshirt.net/us/2007/01/31/flickr-featured-photo/for a close up picture of gold flex.
I have a shirt that was screen printed with metallic silver - the silver flex stays shiny much longer than the screenprint which has worn off over time.
