Italian term

stampe a rovescio

Italian to English Marketing Textiles / Clothing / Fashion
From this sentence: Polo e t-shirt con stampe a rovescio, jersey fiammati e righe delave’.

I'm having trouble envisioning what is meant by 'stampe a rovescio'. It's from a line of clothing for teen boys. Do they really mean backwards print?

reverse print

I think it could just be this. See the google images for reverse print and it gives "reverse print tiered dress" and "Adult Red Reverse Print T-Shirt" for example. Do you have any images to check?
Also see the link below for "reversed print top"

or the link above. I must say reverse print looks like something that might well be used for a teenage boys' collections...

printed on the inside

It 's possible that the graphic could also be printed inside the shirt, showing through faintly on the other side. I have a shirt with this characteristic and I've seen it worn by other people as well. It might be worthwhile to ask for clarification from the company, if possible.
