Cracking occurs when light inks like white, khaki or gold are printed on dark shirts. For designs to be vibrant on dark shirts, the layer of ink needs to be much thicker than on inks on light colored shirts. It takes dozens of washings before any cracking will be obvious as long as you properly launder your garments. Using your washing machine's permanent press/delicate cycle with cold water and a gentle detergent made for dark fabrics will help all your dark fabrics stay dark and help slow the cracking process.
Because it's impossible to control how people wash their clothes, cracking of light inks on dark shirts should be expected.
