Services
We offer our services of t-shirt creation. We practice a few techniques depending on determining factors. We mostly screenprint shirts, but we can create them using heat and vinyl transfers also.
Custom Artwork
Don't have a logo yet? We can help you create one. We're happy to accept print-ready artwork, but we charge for our time after the first half hour.
Shipping
We can ship you your order or meet you in town or at your business, either way works for us.
Small Quantities
We offer quantities as low as one shirt, using digital printing, although sometimes this service can take a while longer due to inventory availability.
Customer Service
Customer Satisfaction is our number one priority. We like to work closely with our customers and keep communication open to avoid unsatisfactory transactions

Digital Printing is a new technology that we are excited to offer.
As a print shop that wants to remain relevent we are dedicated to evolving our skill set as the technology evolves. Here we have a commercial digital printer that is capable of printing hundreds of shirts a day with extreme accuracy and efficiency.
This is the print method we use predominantly because it is the most versatile. Our best prices come from products using this machine and we are always perfecting the prints, getting better after each print job.
The best products are created with the best materials.
We understand this which is why we've chosen to partner with the best distributors in the nation. Rest assured when you get a shirt from us it is created with the highest quality and attention to detail possible.
We specialize in water-based inks for many reasons, the main reason being that it's one of the greener options of inks. We do posess the knowledge to use other screenprinting inks like plastisol and discharge and it is something that can be further discussed if other options work better for you.
We fell in love with the screen printing process
From creating the art, to burning the screens, to pulling the squegee - we love every part of the process. We strive to put out personalized products that our customers will love. We have fun doing what we do!
Doing business with us helps give a local small business a chance to upgrade and expand our capabilities to further meet the needs of our customers. Every new customer contributes to the expansion of our knowledge and in turn helps us to create better products.
Give us a chance and we will deliver!

Pricing
All jobs are not created equal.
Each individual order will have different rates from the next, as every shirt job comes with its own set of variables and challenges unique to that job. Some artwork requires a vast amount of setup and cleanup and that can drive the price of a shirt up. If prints are required on both sides, or the same design is required in multiple colors, the amount of work needed to accomplish this can increase exponentially. Or maybe you don't have a logo yet and are looking to have one made, which would also affect the price of the job. We ask that if you are providing the graphic, logo...etc that you submit it in a print ready format (PNG, PDF, AI, PSD) at the size of the target print or larger, as blowing up an image will cause a loss in quality. If you do not have the print ready file we are always willing to create something per your request (additional charges will apply). We strive to create a quality product for a reasonable price and appreciate your business!
Frequently Asked Questions
A list of questions to clear things up.
-
Which printing technique is the best?
There are many shirt printing techniques, and each technique has a specific use. The secret is knowing which techniques work best in which situations. We offer screen prints, and digital prints. For longevity of the print, nothing beats a screen print, but requires a minimum and setup fees. Digital prints (DTF) are more versatile, allowing us to create very low minimums and extremely high color gamut. We can print full color designs at small and large quantities at a very low price. Screen printing is limited to 3 to 4 colors with no gradients (unless we use halftones).
-
How much are they?
Pricing shirts is a little more complicated than a flat fee. We have to factor many variables into our calculations when making custom shirts, and the time it takes to do things like setup artwork must be accounted for. Each shirt job has it's own unique set of obstacles. Because of this it is hard to put a definite price on our shirts, but we can tell you that prints generally start higher and get less expensive per item when more items are purchased at a time. If you're looking for just one shirt or maybe a handful of shirts, digital printing is the ticket. There are other factors too like quality/style/color of the shirt and, when ordering screenprints, the amount of colors in the design. Due to the nature of digital printing the amount of colors in a digital print has no affect on the price of the shirt, it can have as many colors as needed. Screenprinting, on the other hand, increases in price as the amount of colors increase.
-
How long will it take?
Definitely depends on the amount of shirts ordered and the inventory available, but we generally say for screenprints 2 to 3 weeks, and for digital prints we can have them to you in as little as a day, provided we have a shirt on hand or a way to procure them quickly.
-
What styles and brands are available?
We can get anything from baby clothes all the way up to mens hoodies. For screen prints we lean toward 2 options, a normal 100% cotton shirt or a higher quality 100% cotton ringspun shirt. We also offer prints on 50/50 blends and 100% polyester, for an additional cost. For digital prints we can print on almost any substrate, even nylon. We can get our hands on various styles of shirts like v-necks, tank tops, etc and also various brands like Gildan, Hanes, Fruit of the loom, bella canvas, american apparrel and more.
-
Do you charge an art setup fee?
We are absolutely willing to take print ready artwork that takes no longer than 30 minutes to color seperate and make screen print ready. A charge of $25/hour will be required for every hour beyond the first 30 minutes. If you would like to submit your own artwork we ask that you submit artwork that is 300 dpi or greater or we cannot guarantee the quality and accuracy of the print. Artwork is hard to scale up, so it's best to create artwork for the exact size it's going to be on the shirt. Scaling down is normally no problem so making your artwork bigger rather than smaller is the suggested technique.
-
What if there is a problem with my order?
We are a new shop that is constantly trying new inks and techniques to see which work best for us. We like to branch off and try new print tech. Sometimes problems can arise and we are fully willing to make up for any mistakes made. Please if you have an issue with anything at all we urge you to reach out and call, text, or email us and we will do what it takes to make it right.
