Do you offer volume discounts?

Definitely. The more you order, the lower your per-piece cost. We offer custom pricing for bulk orders, schools, and corporate clients.

What file formats do you accept for artwork?

We prefer vector files like AI, EPS, or SVG, but we can also work with high-res PNGs and JPEGs. If needed, we’ll help convert them.

What shirt brands do you use?

We use quality brands like Gildan, Bella+Canvas, Next Level, and Port & Company. You can also request specific styles or bring your own.

Can you handle detailed logos or small text in embroidery?

Yes — our embroidery machines are capable of high precision. If something won’t stitch clearly, we’ll suggest simple tweaks first.

Do you work with nonprofits, churches, or schools?

Absolutely. We regularly serve schools, churches, fundraisers, and community groups. We offer discounted pricing for qualifying orders.

What is your minimum order for printing or embroidery?

We require a 24-piece minimum for both screen printing and embroidery orders. This keeps things cost-effective and production-friendly.

Do you offer help with artwork or designs?

Yes! We can provide design support, including logo cleanup, placement suggestions, and digital mockups before production begins.

How fast can I get my shirts or embroidery done?

Standard turnaround is 5-8 business days after artwork approval. We also offer rush service and same-day printing on select products.

Do you deliver orders in Houston?

Yes — we offer free delivery across the Houston metro area. Whether you're in the city or a nearby suburb, we’ll bring your order to you.

Can I bring my own items to print or embroider on?

Yes, we accept customer-supplied apparel as long as it’s new and unwashed. Let us check the materials before confirming the job.

How to Create Custom Shirts That Employees Actually Wear

July 16, 2025

Start with Comfort-First Fabrics

Choose soft, breathable blends—like tri-blend or poly-cotton—in flattering cuts. When garments feel good, employees wear them more consistently, boosting visibility and morale.

Design for Taste and Subtle Branding

Avoid oversized logos or screaming slogans. Instead, place a small embroidered logo on the left chest and optional screen-printed sleeve or back graphics that align with your brand voice—not just marketing messages.

Include Voice & Fit Options

Offer unisex and female-fit shirts, as well as long-sleeve options. Providing choices shows you care about your team’s comfort, which fosters pride in wearing branded items regularly.
