I need to apply different logos to Gortex like fabrics that are heat
sensitive and therefore cannot be ironed on as the heat will pucker
the fabric.  This is a small scale enterprise (up to 100 individual
logos at a time).  Ideally, I would like to use a digital photo that
can be placed into a device that prints the logo onto the transfer
material that is put onto the product.  It must be DURABLE.  I have
seen something similar to what I want to do on my wifes cycling pants.
 I do not want a sewn in logo due to the expense as the product will
need to wholesale at less than $6.00.  The product is small, measuring
about 2.5 x 5 inches.

Graphics are usually applied to nylon articles using the silkscreen
printing process. For your purposes (relatively low runs), you are
probably best off striking a deal with a local business that can
provide silkscreening services.

Here is a link to a quick overview of the silkscreening process:

If you wish to clarify your question and can provide a location for
your logo-application needs, I should be able to compile a short list
of silk-screening service providers for you to contact.
