Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, but we will need to know all the details before we can agree to print them, to make sure they are of a quality and type that we can use. We prefer to provide the shirts and hoodies, and with the amount of blank items that we buy annually, we get just about the best pricing possible, so it’s better economically for us to provide the blanks.
Yes! We have added a fulfillment program.
Yes! In some cases, your order may qualify for free shipping. Inquire with our staff.
It needs to be crisp and clean, at actual print size at 300dpi resolution, if you’re submitting a photoshop or PNG or JPG file. In other words, real big and not blurry or messy. Also great is the vector format, like Illustrator or EPS or PDF files. That’s ideal for screen printing, because it has crisp edges, and we need a sharp edge when we make the stencil in the screen.
It depends on the size of the job and how intricate the decorations are. Normally 7 business days, during high season the turnaround is longer.
The only fee we currently charge is to change ink colors during the printing. For example, if you wanted 50 white shirts, and 25 have the design in red ink and 25 have it in blue ink, we have to stop the run and then start over. Ink changes are $20 per change.
It varies so much. It depends on how many you’re ordering and what the printing is like (just one color on the front only, versus two color front and three color back, etc) and what kind of shirt it is. There is no standard price. Get in touch with us for a custom price!

We guarantee you will be happy with our work. If we make any mistakes in the order or errors in the printing, we will fix it by replacing the items or refunding your money. Your happiness is our priority, we hope you will spread the word!
Our minimum for printing is 24 pieces for screen printing. For smaller orders, please see below.
Yes! Just email us and let us know what you want. Doing one shirt will cost you more than 24 shirts.
After you give your payment for your order, we can then order the blank shirts or hoodies or whatever we need, and those generally arrive in 1 or 2 business days, though some items, especially some American Apparel items, can take a week to get to us. Generally, orders are shipped out in one to two weeks, although it may take longer for very large, complicated orders, or orders requiring blank items that take a while to get to us.
Send us your information and we’ll get back to you quickly with a price! Giving quotes via email is much better, but we can also do quotes on the phone, or at least take your information and research your needs and email you back with a price.
Once we come up with a price and you’re ready to go, we will send you an invoice via email that you can pay securely online through interac. Note that we require a deposit for certain orders.
Just email it to [email protected] and we’ll check it out. If your file is too big to email to us, just use something like Google Docs and email us the link.
Don’t worry about it. We have an artist that loves to be creative. Simple alternations are FREE but if we have to spend more time on it a fee will be added.
No problem. Our team will help you put something together.
