Best File Specs for Apparel Mockups

Quick answer

Export mockup previews in sRGB at 2000 to 3000 pixels wide for web, and keep your PSD artwork at 300 DPI with enough margin for print safe zones.

PSD working file specs

Use a large working file so your design does not degrade when you scale or crop.

• Canvas: 4500 to 6000 pixels wide for full front prints
• Color: sRGB for web previews
• Resolution: 300 DPI in the PSD
• Format: PSD with smart objects and layer groups

Export specs by channel

Export sizes by use case

1. 1. Product pages

   Export JPG or PNG at 2000 to 3000 pixels wide to keep zoom sharp and load time reasonable.

2. 2. Social posts

   Use 1080 x 1350 for portrait posts and keep file size under 1 MB.

3. 3. Ad creative

   Match the platform format, then export PNG if you need crisp edges or transparency.

4. 4. Pitch decks

   Export PNG at 2x the slide width for clear presentation on large screens.

Keep type legible

Avoid ultra thin text on textured fabric. Increase weight and contrast, then test at mobile size.

Key Takeaways

• - Work large in PSD so you can export without blur.
