Custom printed large format gear for Carrboro businesses, schools, teams, churches, and crews. Proofs in 24 hours, delivered in 5 to 7 days.

Census numbers put Carrboro at about 21,000 people on 6.5 square miles of North Carolina, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Chapel Hill, NC (3 mi), Carolina Meadows, NC (6 mi), Governors Village, NC (6 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. Fort Liberty, around 59 miles from Carrboro, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Carrboro.
A typical week of banners and signs orders from this corner of North Carolina mixes Carrboro crews with neighbors like Chapel Hill, 3 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Memorial signage treated as the most important order in the building. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Homecoming banners printed quick, because the ship rarely lands on the day first announced. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Registration, sponsor, and directional signs for runs, fairs, and ceremonies. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Pull-up stands that turn a folding table into a professional booth. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Stacks of corrugated yard signs for fundraising drives and campaigns. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Outdoor vinyl hemmed, grommeted, and cut to the fence you plan to hang it on. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
This shop exists for the military community, and it shows in how orders run. Deadlines are treated like formation times, proofs are honest instead of optimistic, and when Carrboro customers call, a person who owns the order answers.
Part of the job is refusing bad orders. When the art, the garment, or the date is wrong, saying so before you pay is the service.
Upload art or add text in the Design Lab, set sizes and quantities, and the full estimate, shipping included, is on screen before you give anyone your email.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Carrboro customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
The volunteer-shirt companion: light, matched to the signs, priced for volume. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Cold-month events call for fleece on the crew, not just cotton. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Most banner orders add matching event shirts. Doing both in one order means one proof, one deadline, one delivery. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Finished files are welcome but never required. A faded photo, a hand sketch, or three sentences of description all become professional vector art at no charge, proofed back to you within a day. The revision count is unlimited, the approval is in writing, and production does not move an inch until that approval exists.
Hands-on types can skip the wait entirely: the Design Lab puts your art on the actual garment with the price updating live.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure Carrboro customers see.

Beyond the table, the only extras are per-piece and public: back prints at the listed rate stepping down to $3 then $2, oversized fronts at $3 dropping to $2, and 2XL-plus at $6 dropping to $4. The Design Lab does this arithmetic for you in real time.
The first step is just getting the idea out of your head: type it into the quote form or mock it up in the Design Lab, rough edges and all.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
