For screen printing, the minimum is 12 pieces for a one‑color design. For embroidery, we can do as few as 1 piece.

Screen printing uses ink applied on top of the fabric, which is ideal for big, bold, colorful designs on shirts and hoodies. Embroidery uses stitched thread and is best for smaller logos on polos, hats, and jackets when you want a durable, premium look.

Yes, but we need to review them first. Garments must be new, unwashed, and unworn. There is an additional fee, and we cannot guarantee the longevity of customer‑supplied garments or how they will react to the decoration process.

Yes. We’re one of the few shops in the Tampa Bay area with a full in‑house design team, ready to create or refine anything from simple text layouts to fully custom logos for your apparel.

We prefer vector files such as AI, EPS, PDF, or SVG. High‑resolution PNG or JPEG files can also work in some cases.

We do offer rush options for an additional fee, depending on our current production schedule and your design’s complexity. Reach out with your deadline and we’ll let you know what’s possible.

Payment is due before garments are ordered and production begins. We accept all major credit cards, ACH, checks, bank wires, Zelle, and cash.

We currently specialize in producing large runs of consistent, high-quality decorated apparel rather than individualized personalization on each item. Because of this, we do not offer custom names, numbers, or variable data printing within a single order.

No. We do not print copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise protected content without verified permission from the rights holder. Orders containing unauthorized use of logos, brands, characters, or similar intellectual property will be declined. Submitting artwork confirms that you have full legal rights to reproduce it.

Pantone color matching is available for many screen-printed projects. If exact color accuracy is important, please provide your Pantone reference when submitting artwork and before production begins.

Digital proofs are intended to show layout, placement, and overall design — not exact color reproduction. Screen brightness, color calibration, garment material, ink type, and lighting conditions can all influence how a printed color appears in the final product. Because of these variables, slight color variations may occur even when Pantone colors are specified.

Yes. We work with businesses, brands, organizations, and teams of all sizes — from startups placing their first order to established companies managing ongoing apparel programs.

Clients choose us for dependable timelines, clear communication, and repeatable results. We understand the operational side of apparel production — from maintaining brand consistency across orders to helping teams simplify reorders, scale programs, and reduce costly mistakes.
