Terms And Conditions
Turn Around
The turn around time on your order with DTLA Print starts when you’ve paid in full and we have all information required to complete your order (all mock ups, high resolution artwork, working /correct tags, all fonts required for editable tags, all shipping info, pantone colors, ink types, and any other requested info etc.). Delay in receipt of *any* of this info could result in production delays. Our current turnaround time is 7-15 Business Days Average + Shipping. Complex orders/add-ons may increase turnaround times. Delay in approval of mock ups could also result in production delays. Each finishing service will add extra time to the turn around on orders, adding roughly 2 days per finishing to the turn around time. The most up-to-date turnaround time will be listed on your quote and invoice.
If you have a deadline for your order, it is very important that you let us know when placing your order and a rush fee may apply if there is not enough time to complete your order under normal circumstances. If you do not advise us about a due date until after your order has been paid for and pushed through our system, we may not be able to accommodate your request. Any circumstances out of DTLA Print’s control (ie: weather delays, shipping errors by the supplier, etc.) may also require more time and are not factored into the initial turn around time estimate.
Payment Terms
Orders must be paid with a 50% deposit prior to any work beginning. Unless otherwise approved by DTLA Print staff, customers with terms, etc. If you pay via check, the turn around time clock on your order will not begin until your check clears.
Artwork
All files must be submitted in 300 DPI or vector format. The design should be sized to the size you would like it to print or larger and dimensions should be provided. Text must be converted to outlines. Printing can only be as good as the artwork. DTLA Print will not be responsible for poor quality printing due to poor artwork. DTLA Print is not responsible for any misspellings, errors, or issues in your art file. We do our best to catch these errors and point them out to you, but we may not catch them all. If it is in your art file and on your approval, that is how we will print it.
Art Approval / Order Proofs
It is the buyers responsibility to request and approve order proof or sample prior to proceeding with order. If client opts out or chooses not to receive a printed sample DTLA Print can not be liable for errors not caught buy Buyers order. We highly recommend ordering a sample if you are not sure how your garment will look in regards to placement, colors, artwork sizes, etc..
Out of stock items
DTLA Print is not responsible for items that are out of stock by suppliers and or distributors. While we check items we know to have potential stock issues, all garments are ordered after your order is placed, and we cannot guarantee their availability. If items are out of stock, we will provide you with a list of possible replacements and get it approved by you before using your chosen item.
Hoodie Printing
Although DTLA PRINT has the latest equipment available, inconsistencies may occur in registration and ink coverage when printing over the zipper, pockets or any other uneven surfaces. DTLA Print will not be responsible for these inconsistencies.
Collar & Screen Printing
Although DTLA Print has the latest equipment available, inconsistencies may occur in registration and ink coverage when printing near or over the collar, seams, or any other edges. Any large prints may run the risk of going over the sleeve seam. These are all considered acceptable goods and will not be considered for reprints and or damages. Buyer accepts responsibility when submitting order.
Cancelled Orders Due To Buyer Mistake
There is a $250 cancelled set up fee for any changes made to an order after work has been done. IE: Once a machine is set up and buyer requests to stop production there is a $250 cancellation fee to cover for the time spent mixing inks, preparing machines and garments as well as setting up machines.
Cancellations & Restocking Fees
Cancellations made after order has been placed will be subject to a 15% restocking fee plus any additional fees required to cover services already rendered. No cancellations will be accepted once production or any manipulation of the garments (tag removal, printed tags, printing, hem tagging, etc.) has begun on the order.

Garment Disclaimer
DTLA Print is not responsible for manufacturer defects such as color inconsistencies, stitching errors, mislabeled garments, loose/inconsistent stitching, and/or garment defects (holes in garments, ripped seams, etc.). We try our hardest to inspect the garments as we print them, but we cannot guarantee each garment. We are not the manufacturers of these garments, so we cannot ensure their construction. We highly recommend ordering 5%-10% extra of each size if an exact count is important.
Some manufacturers over-dye their garments. Over-dying is the process of re-dying a garment after it’s initial manufacturing period. This is done for any number of reasons, including color correction, clearing out of colors that didn’t sell (purple shirts aren’t selling so the manufacturer dyes them black to sell them as black shirts), etc. Because of this factor, DTLA Print cannot 100% guarantee exact color consistency on coloring with discharge printing or discharge based services (Premium Standard). This is most noticeable on white ink prints (showing a slight off white tinge), but can sometimes be seen with other colors. If you are concerned about the possibility of over-dying on a garment you are interested in or would like more information or alternate print methods, please contact us prior to submitting an order. We will be glad to provide you with any information that may help you avoid this issue.
If a garment is provided or ordered DTLA Print can not be held responsible for how the print is effected by the print. Many light weight fabrics should be tested prior to running full production and a sample should be ordered to see how these garments will print. We can not be held responsible for prints showing through the back on label prints due to light weight fabrics.
