DecoNetwork

Heading to Print & Stitch this autumn? DecoNetwork will be at four upcoming shows across the UK.

Print & Stitch brings garment decorators together with suppliers, equipment, software, and industry experts, giving print and embroidery businesses a chance to explore new products, technology, and ideas in person.

DecoNetwork helps garment decorators manage quotes, orders, online stores, artwork, customers, and production in one platform. By keeping those parts of the business connected, shops can spend less time moving information between systems and more time getting orders through production.

Upcoming shows:

📍 Exeter — September 22
📍 Birmingham — September 24
📍 London (Esher) — October 20
📍 Liverpool — October 22

This Week in Catalog: September 18, 2026

Hello. I'm very pleased to announce that we released the Stormtech Canada catalog this afternoon. We have more products to add next week, however, the vast majority are live now. We encountered an issue this week concerning Ralawise, which we corrected. Inconsistent data formatting on their end was causing duplicates in some youth sizes. Our developers added more preprocessing rules to automatically convert them to a single format when encountered.

The Stormtech Canada catalog includes 332 products as of today, with another 30 to configure. We received the data we'd been awaiting from Cottonridge on Monday. We added 13 new products and updated 8. Cutter & Buck also supplied data for some products they'd missed in their last submission, allowing us to add 21 additional products this week. In Prestige Leisure, we added 29 new products. Fixing the duplicate sizing in Ralawise required us to run our data import early, so we got a head start on September's update. So far, we have configured 16 new products and updated the 29 that were affected by the data changes. We're wrapping up the monthly S&S update, adding 9 new products and updating 24. In Momentec, we added missing images to another 29 products and the catalog is as complete as we can make it without new data. SanMar's September update is nearly finished, with 16 product updates this week. Lastly, we added 7 products to Stormtech UK, 10 to Stormtech US, and configured 4 products in the upcoming Oak & Twine catalog.

Can your shop handle 100+ online stores without creating 100+ new headaches? That is the challenge behind the Shirt Lab Las Vegas Online Store Masterclass on Tuesday, September 22, one day before PRINTING United Expo. The focus is on building a model that can stay organized, efficient, and profitable as store volume grows. In-person and virtual tickets are available.

Expect practical conversations around:

Launching stores more consistently

Reducing manual work
Managing production and fulfillment
Using automation where it makes sense
Protecting profitability as volume increases

The speaker lineup includes Davis Slagle, Jesse Freeby, Shane Snodgrass, Alex Phelan, and Ali Banholzer.

This Week in Catalog: September 11, 2026

Despite Labor Day making this a short week, we completed a remarkable amount of work. Also, we have an upcoming new release to announce. We are working to create a catalog for Oak & Twine. They produce scrubs and lab coats out of Chattanooga, TN. I expect to have the catalog online by the end of the month.

Our big update for Stormtech UK is nearly complete. We've configured another 35 new products this week. Since the work is almost finished, we ran an update for the US version from the completed portion of the UK catalog. This added 107 new products and updated 154. When the final few products in the UK are done, we will run the US sync again, and then get the Canadian version live. Both should occur by the end of next week.

As for our other projects, we completed our monthly round of work in AS Colour with 20 updates in the EU catalog. The September update of S&S is underway. We have added 24 new products and updated 11. Cutter & Buck is almost finished, with 23 new products and 1 update. In Atlantic Coast Cotton, we ran a check for products missing images and updated 24 products. We are conducting a similar check in Momentec and have updated 16 products, so far. Do not get excited though, they still have NOT supplied us with any new data. In the Prestige Leisure expansion, we have added 21 new products. Lastly, we updated 2 products in Cutter & Buck Canada, 1 in PenCarrie, and 1 in SanMar.

Happy Labor Day weekend from DecoNetwork! Our office will be closed on Monday, September 7, for Labor Day. We’ll resume normal business hours on Tuesday. We hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable long weekend!

This Week in Catalog: August 28, 2026

You may (or may not) have noticed there was no blog post last Friday. I was away on vacation, but the rest of the team was here and hard at work. We have had a system issue which has prevented us from publishing any catalog updates for the past week. We hope to have the fix in place on Monday so you will have all our recent work live.

We've reached out to AS Colour to correct an error with their data concerning product shipping weights. After manually resetting the provided case weights for all 297 products in the UK catalog to our default piece weights, AS Colour confirmed that shipping weights are slated for removal from their data files. Work is underway on an update for Stormtech UK, with 39 new products and 12 updates completed thus far. When the UK region is complete, we will update the US version, then begin producing the new Canadian catalog.

We've nearly completed the long-awaited update for Gildan Brands, with 24 new products and 20 product updates. Although we have been unable to publish them yet, we completed updates for SanMar (38 new products, 36 updates), S&S Canada (13 new products, 7 updates), Ralawise (10 new products, 8 updates), and Otto Cap (4 new products, 4 updates). The seemingly never-ending work on S&S Activewear continues with 52 new products and 25 updates. We're also steadily expanding Prestige Leisure with another 37 new products. Lastly, we began work on an update for SanMar Canada, updating 9 products so far, and updated 2 products in Canada Sportswear.

DecoNetwork adds Absolute Apparel integration. For shops selling custom workwear, promotional clothing, T-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, polos, fleece, and accessories, this update makes Absolute Apparel easier to bring into the everyday DecoNetwork workflow.

This Week in Catalog: August 14, 2026

Greetings, everyone. We found a problem with the converter for the raw data from Canada Sportswear. The issue was preventing some of the data from being converted. We have added some safeguards that will notify us if any rows of data are excluded from the conversion and provides a reason why. The 9 products that had been removed during the import late last month have been restored.

Our SanMar update continues, with 42 new products and 28 product updates. We've added 44 new products to Gildan Brands and 44 to Prestige Leisure. In S&S Activewear, we updated 28 products. Following the fix for Canada Sportswear's data, we added 2 new products and updated 5. Lastly, we updated 3 products in Ralawise, 2 in PenCarrie, 2 in S&S Canada, and 1 in AS Colour UK.
