Frequently Asked Questions

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

We’ve provided answers to some of our most commonly asked questions.
What is “private label production”?

“Private label production” means that you have the ability to customize every detail and finishing option for your apparel, including neck labels, tags, packaging, sizing stickers, ink types, promotional items and then some.

Details are a must in the apparel industry—and we give you control over all of them.

 

 

What if I just want to print some quality shirts without all the extras?

No problem.

We offer the same high quality screen-printing without folding, bagging, custom labeling, or any other finishing details.

 

 

What is the minimum order quantity?

The minimum order for our private label package is 100 units.

The minimum order quantity (MOQ) decreases to 50 units for standard screen printing.

 

 

How long does production take?

Private label production typically takes 2.5 weeks from the time of final design approval.

Standard screen printing is slightly faster and ready in about 1-1.5 weeks.

 

 

What about shipping?

We ship anywhere within the continental United States, via UPS or USPS, and provide you with tracking information from your respective carrier. Merchandise usually arrives within 4-5 business days, depending on the size of your order.

 

 

Can I pick my order up from the warehouse if I’m local?

Of course - we just ask that you get in touch with us beforehand to set a time for pickup.

 

 

What is the process like from start to finish?

    Simple.

    You provide us with the artwork file(s) and we’ll go over the build details like sizing, blanks styles, inks, and any other finishing options you need.

    We’ll follow up with a 3D digital mockup and summary of your order details for approval. Once approved, we’ll enter production and keep you as updated as possible.

     

     

        Where can I find more information on pricing?

            We don’t offer “standard” pricing on our website because the amount of detail that varies from brand to brand would make it extremely inaccurate.

            What we can tell you is that we’re able to leverage our relationships, reputation and high volume to get you the highest quality product at the lowest possible price—every time.

               

               

                What kind of blank styles do you offer?

                  We have great relationships with all of the major manufacturers and can source any blank style you’d like.

                  If you have a particular blank style that you love to use, just let us know. If not, we can make a recommendation based on your industry and target audience.

                   

                   

                    I really love the blanks used by a brand that you already work with—can I use them?

                        Unfortunately, no.

                        As a private label vendor, we have strict privacy agreements and won’t share any specific information or data about brands that we’ve worked with—past, present or future.

                         

                         

                            Can I mix and match inks, blank styles and colors?

                                Yes you can. We refer to changes in blank style or color as variations. You’re allotted two variations every 100 units. For example, on a 200 unit order, that could be two different blank styles in two different colors, one blank style in four different colors, and so on.

                                As far as inks, you’re allotted up to 5 colors with no additional cost. Each color after five is +$30.00 each.

                                   

                                    How should I prepare my artwork files for production?

                                        We always advise our clients to provide their artwork in true vector format (extensions that end in .AI, .PDF, .EPS) with each color grouped and separated into its own layer.

                                        We can also accept .PSD files and images, as long as the image resolution for each component is at least 300ppi.

                                         

                                            I don’t have a designer—can you help me create artwork?

                                                Sure we can.

                                                We have a network of designers who specialize in a variety of different styles. We’ll take your description, napkin sketches, or reference images and take care of all the details for you.

                                                 

                                                Artwork creation usually ranges between $175-$450, depending on the complexity and detail. When the order is finished, you’ll own the design and receive the original artwork files.
