Shipping with clarity
Fast, trackable delivery tailored to your timeline.
Every order is produced to spec first and shipped with the method that best fits your destination, deadline, and program needs.

Production time is separate from shipping time, so delivery expectations stay clear from the start.
Expedited options
UPS 2nd Day Air and Next Day Air are available when timing matters.
Free shipping
Eligible orders over $250 qualify for free shipping.
Tracking updates
Tracking is emailed as soon as your order ships.
Domestic & expedited shipping

- If you also need production expedited, that timeline is handled separately from transit.
International shipping
- We ship internationally with UPS and USPS, with transit times based on destination and service level.
- Commercial invoices and HS codes are included, and we will reach out if your shipment needs VAT, EORI, EIN, or similar customs details.
Blind shipping & fulfillment
- Blind shipping is available. Let your rep know at the beginning of the order and we can ship with your branding, logo, and name.
- We also support multi-address shipping and individual fulfillment for team drops, creator programs, and corporate orders.
Design approval
Clear file prep keeps production accurate and on schedule.
Send well-prepared design and we can review it faster, match the right decoration method, and move your order into production with fewer revisions.
Accepted files
AI, PDF, EPS, PSD, TIFF, and PNG files are accepted for review.
Preferred setup
Raster design should be 300 DPI at size, and editable vector files are preferred when available.
Text handling
Convert all text to outlines before sending final production files.
Transparent art
Where applicable, provide design on a transparent background and scaled to final size or larger.
Color & placement expectations
- Because decoration is applied across different garments, fabrics, and dye lots, PMS matching can vary by roughly 3 to 5 percent.
- Graphic placement can vary by up to 1/4 inch in each direction as part of normal production tolerance.
Production notes
- Sample machines and bulk production machines can apply different pressure, which may create small color differences from approved sample to final run.
- If your design includes delicate effects or fine detail, our team may recommend minor adjustments for the cleanest possible result.
Decoration-specific specs
- Embroidery, screen print, DTG, patches, and transfers each have different size limits, color allowances, and file-prep requirements.
- Use the full design guidelines below for method-specific standards before submitting complex or multi-location designs.

Built to Last
Every decoration method we use is engineered to hold up — wash after wash, wear after wear. No fading, no cracking, no peeling.
Wash Resistance
Won't Wash Off
Our prints are cured at high temperatures and bonded to the fabric at a molecular level. Machine wash on repeat — the print stays put.
Fade Resistance
Won't Fade Out
We use colorfast, UV-stable inks across every decoration method. Your design holds its vibrancy through sun exposure and extended wear.
Crack Resistance
Won't Crack or Peel
Flexible ink formulations and precision heat application mean your prints stretch with the garment — no cracking, no flaking, no peeling edges.
Not All Printers Are Created Equal
Everything is produced under one roof — from design review to final quality check.
Your order never leaves our facility until it ships to you. We control every step of decoration from design prep to final quality check.
Before production starts, a real person checks your files for resolution, color accuracy, and print compatibility. No automated guesswork.
Screen print, embroidery, DTG, heat transfer — we match the method to your product and design for the best possible outcome.
Every order gets a digital proof. You approve it. We don't start production until you're satisfied with how it looks.
Questions don't go to a queue. Our team is based in downtown Los Angeles and responds directly — by phone, email, or chat.
How We Print
Every decoration method in our facility follows strict production standards — because the details between setup and shipment are what separate a good print from a great one.
Screen Printing
Multi-pass ink layering with flash cure between each color
Quality outcome
Dense, vibrant color that bonds deep into fabric fibers for maximum wash durability.
Embroidery
Digitized at thread level with density calibration per fabric type
Quality outcome
Clean stitch definition, no puckering, holds shape through heavy use.
DTG Printing
Pre-treated garments with white ink base and high-resolution color pass
Quality outcome
Photo-quality detail reproduction with soft hand feel — no heavy plastisol layer.
Heat Transfer
Precision temperature and pressure calibration per material weight
Quality outcome
Even adhesion across the full print area, flexible finish that moves with the garment.
How We Handle Your Print Job
From design review to final quality check — every step is handled by our team, under one roof.
Free Design Review
Our in-house design team checks every file for resolution, color accuracy, and print compatibility before production begins.
Digital Proof Approval
You see exactly how your design will look before we print. We don't start until you approve it.
Method Matching
Screen print, DTG, embroidery, or transfer — we recommend the best method for your product and design.
Any Run Size
From a single sample to a full production run. We handle small batches and large orders with the same level of care.
Real Human Support
Phone, email, or chat — you talk to our team directly from our facility on South Santa Fe Ave in Vernon, CA.
