Our Process

To give you the most accurate quote for your order, you need a few things:

  1. Your design file (Need help with design? See our design services section.)

  2. Garment styles and selections

  3. Order quantities

  4. Ink color choice(s)

Quotes are good for 30 days. After 30 days a new quote may be required.

We’ll send you a proof of your order, including print specs (colors, dimensions) and a digital mockup.

From there, we’ll just need your approval to move forward.

After the order details are finalized, the last step is to pay your invoice. You can pay online, over the phone, or in person. Need to pay your invoice? Check your inbox for an email from us. Don’t see it? Check your spam folder.

Once we receive full payment of the invoice, your order can move to production!

Most of the production process happens before we even print your shirts! We separate colors, burn screens, and mix ink colors behind the scenes to make sure everything is perfect before putting the shirts on press.

With most of the prep done in pre-press, all we need to do is throw your blank goods on the press and pull, pull, pull those squeegees. Since all of our shirts are printed by hand (and with love), each piece that we print is unique!
