Ordering & Quotes

What is the average cost of a custom t-shirt? Pricing is project-specific and depends on a few variables:

  • The type and color of the garment.
  • The number of colors in your design (for screen printing).
  • The total quantity of items in the order.
  • The decoration method (Screen Printing, Embroidery, or DTF).

Do you offer bulk discounts? Yes! We offer price breaks approximately every 12 units. The more you order, the lower your price per piece becomes.

Can I see a preview before my order is printed? Absolutely. We provide a digital mockup (proof) for every order. We don’t hit the press until you have reviewed and approved the design and placement.

Do you accept Purchase Orders (POs)? Yes, we frequently work with schools and universities. We just require a new customer credit form to be filled out and kept on file.

Production & Turnaround

What is your current turnaround time? Our standard turnaround is currently 7 to 10 business days from the time of art approval and payment. If you have a specific “in-hand” date for an event, please let us know so we can accommodate you.

Is there a minimum order quantity? We have no minimums! You can order a single shirt through our DTF (Direct-to-Film) service. However, keep in mind that bulk pricing starts to significantly decrease the cost per item as quantities increase.

What brands do you carry? We have access to thousands of styles. Our most popular brands include Carhartt, Bella+Canvas, Nike, New Era, Champion, Gildan, Sport-Tek, and Eddie Bauer. If you’re looking for something specific, just ask!

Artwork & Design

What file format should I submit for my artwork? For the best results, we prefer Vector files (.AI, .EPS, .PDF, or .SVG). We also accept high-resolution raster images (PNG or TIFF) as long as they are 300 DPI or higher.

What if I don’t have a design? No problem! You can browse thousands of professional templates in our [Design Idea Gallery]. Pick a layout you like, and we will customize the text and colors for you.
