# Why does my print look different from my screen?

Colors on screen may appear slightly different when printed.

This is due to:

- Screen brightness and color calibration
- RGB (screen) vs CMYK (print) color differences
- Fabric texture and material type
- Printing method variations

We strive for accurate color reproduction, but minor variations are normal and not considered defects.

If exact color matching is critical, contact us before placing your order.
