Custom printed large format gear for Catlin businesses, schools, teams, churches, and crews. Proofs in 24 hours, delivered in 5 to 7 days.
Catlin crews order printed large format gear from us because the numbers are public and the process is simple: free design help, a written proof within 24 hours, and delivery to any Catlin address in 5 to 7 business days.
Catlin is home to about 1,900 people across 0.8 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Tilton, IL (4 mi), Belgium, IL (4 mi), Westville, IL (4 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. The closest major installation is Grissom Air Reserve Base, roughly 98 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Catlin.
Banners and Signs demand around Catlin does not stop at the town line. Crews from Tilton (4 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Fence-line vinyl with proper hems and grommets, sized to spec. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Dedication displays produced with the seriousness the ceremony deserves. 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. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
The full event kit: sponsor boards, registration signs, and arrows that get people where they belong. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Recruiting tables and expo booths that set up in thirty seconds. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Stacks of corrugated yard signs for fundraising drives and campaigns. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
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 Catlin customers call, a person who owns the order answers.
Honesty runs in both directions here. A doomed timeline or a design that will disappoint gets called out early, with an alternative attached.
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 Catlin customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Pair the banner with matching tees in the same order: one approval covers everything. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
The volunteer-shirt companion: light, matched to the signs, priced for volume. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
When the event is outdoors in November, the staff gear is a hoodie. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Most orders here start without finished artwork, and that is fine. Our in-house designers redraw low resolution logos as clean vectors, build new designs from a written description, and match era-correct type and insignia when the design calls for it. The service costs nothing with an order, the first proof lands within 24 hours, and revisions are unlimited. You approve the final art in writing before production, so the shirt that arrives is the shirt you signed off on.
Want to try it yourself first? The Design Lab lets you upload art, add text in stencil and athletic fonts, and position everything on the exact garment with live pricing the whole time.
