Abstract: A method for printing on a lower surface of a peak of a baseball cap comprising: a) printing an image on the lower surface of the peak when the peak is at an elevated printing temperature and when the peak is in a generally planar configuration; b) allowing the peak to cool to a temperature below an elevated formation temperature; and, c) heating the peak to the elevated formation temperature and applying a non-planar shape to the peak, wherein the peak comprises a deformable insert that is solid at the elevated printing temperature and deformable at the elevated formation temperature.

Abstract: A method for printing an image onto fabric, preferably a dark fabric, comprises the steps of transferring an image to the fabric to provide a transferred image on the fabric; and, subsequently applying a highlight that is lighter in color than the dark color to at least a portion of the fabric surrounding the transferred image and/or a margin of the transferred image. A fabric such as a T-shirt comprising a sublimated image and white highlights is also provided.
