Decals with dimensional offsets are disclosed. The decals may be part of a decal kit or may be applied to an article. The decals include an overlay having multiple dimensional spacers. When applied to an article, the decal overlay bonds to the article, securing the dimensional spacers between the overlay and the article creating dimensional offsets. The dimensional offsets are positioned on an interior surface of the article so that contact with a wearer's skin is minimized, reducing the perception of cling.

The present invention relates to a method of producing a defined three-dimensional texture on a textile, in which the texture is provided on a textile with a defined area and a defined height, the texture is formed with at least one texture layer, wherein the height and the area of the texture are adjusted by at least one defined height and at least one defined area of the at least one texture layer, at least one variable-volume ink is applied to the textile in the form of individual ink droplets, wherein a plurality of ink droplets are provided on the textile according to the area of the texture, and the applied ink droplets are activated, whereby a predefined volume increase of the ink droplets is produced and the at least one texture layer is formed on the textile. To provide the defined height of the at least one texture layer at least one defined distance between the applied ink droplets for the texture layer is adjusted, which distance is smaller than and/or equal to a diameter of activated ink droplets of the texture layer. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a three-dimensional texture for a textile with an area and a height, and at least one texture layer which is formed from at least one variable-volume ink in the form of individual ink droplets and which can be applied to the textile and can be activated for a defined volume increase. The ink droplets of the at least one texture layer are provided with at least a distance from each other that is smaller than or equal to the diameter of activated ink droplets.

The present disclosure relates to a template and a related method for the application of inserts in the form of letters, numbers or symbols on leather, fabrics, cloth, or similar laminar products to customize them. The centering template comprises a main support body (101) having a centering system (106) to allow an engagement of the template (100) in pre-fixed position to a base (3a) of a press (3); and a centering element (102) configured to receive in pre-fixed position at least a laminar portion (103) of an accessory (104). The centering element (102) has a through seat (105) for the inserts (11) and it is movable with respect to the main support body (101) between an extracted resting position in which an upper surface (102a) of the centering element (102) is moved away from the main support body (101) and a working position in which the upper surface (102a) of the centering element (102) is approached to the main support body (101). The template allows the correct positioning of the characters on the accessory both in terms of alignment, and in terms of distance from the edges and from the other inserts of the accessory (handles, buckles, etc. . . . ) and regardless of the shape assumed by the laminar portion itself.

Aspects are directed to printing a garment and include a method having steps of providing a fabric panel containing polyester, applying an ink layer to a first area of the fabric panel, curing the ink layer, and applying a sublimation dye to the first area and a different second area of the fabric panel. Application of the sublimation dye causes the first area and the second area to have different color saturations. Other aspects include a garment with a fabric panel containing polyester that has a first surface with a first area and a different second area. The garment also includes an ink layer on the first surface and located at the first area and a sublimation dye absorbed by a portion of the fabric panel at the second area and on a surface of the ink layer at the first area.
