Our review
Hyper Merch Limited, trading as Inkthreadable, is named as the operator in the privacy policy, and the site footer shows a GB VAT number and registration in the United Kingdom. The about page describes a family-run business from Lancashire, founded in 2013 by Alex and Amy.
Production sits in one UK facility with 40 print technicians, embroidery experts, pickers and packers. The site states 2M+ orders fulfilled and more than 250 custom products that can be dropshipped anywhere in the world.
What can Inkthreadable print?
The catalogue covers T-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, hats, children's clothing, mugs, bags, stickers, candles and wall art. Methods named are DTG, DTF, embroidery, dye sublimation and giclee.
Brands such as Stanley/Stella, AWDis, Gildan and Bella+Canvas are listed, which helps sellers who choose blanks by label or by organic content.
How are prices set?
Example prices on the home page include GBP 10.77 for a Stanley/Stella Creator 2.0 T-shirt, GBP 8.09 for a Gildan Heavy Cotton T-shirt and GBP 4.49 for an 11oz mug, all including VAT.
Reward Pricing is free once an account spends at least GBP 500 a month, with discounts of up to 10% the following month.
How do sellers connect a store?
Inkthreadable lists integration guides for Shopify, WooCommerce, Etsy, TikTok, Big Cartel, Wix and Squarespace, plus its own API and ordering by CSV.
The site accepts GBP, EUR, USD, AUD, CAD, CHF, NOK and DKK display currencies, but the terms say the website is designed with UK customers in mind.
Known limits
The terms say all prices are in pounds sterling including 20% UK VAT, and that the site is designed with UK customers in mind, with extra delivery charges for foreign customers. One UK site produces everything, so shipping to distant regions depends on postage, not local production. Hosting location is not stated.
Is Inkthreadable right for you?
UK-based or UK-focused sellers of clothing and gifts who value embroidery. For local production on several continents see Gelato and Cloudprinter.
