Banners and Signs for Gaines: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Gaines 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 Gaines address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Gaines at a community of 374 on 0.4 square miles of Michigan, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Byron, MI (4 mi), Durand, MI (5 mi), Argentine, MI (7 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. Selfridge Air National Guard Base, around 56 miles from Gaines, 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 Gaines.
Because Byron sits only 4 miles from Gaines, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
Dedication displays produced with the seriousness the ceremony deserves. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Pier-side photo banners sized four by eight, produced on timelines that respect shifting return dates. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Registration, sponsor, and directional signs for runs, fairs, and ceremonies. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
The thirty-second booth: retractable stands for recruiters and expos. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Corrugated signs by the stack for fundraisers and campaigns. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Outdoor vinyl hemmed, grommeted, and cut to the fence you plan to hang it on. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Gaines customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
The Design Lab puts your art on the real garment, takes your size counts, and totals the whole order, shipping included, without asking who you are.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Gaines customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Cold-month events call for fleece on the crew, not just cotton. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Pair the banner with matching tees in the same order: one approval covers everything. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Volunteer and staff tees to match the signage, priced for handing out by the box. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Design help is not an upsell here, it is how orders start. Describe the concept in a sentence, attach whatever reference you have, and within 24 hours a real designer returns a proof drawn as clean vectors, era-correct where it matters. Revisions cost nothing and continue until the proof is right, and your written approval is the only thing that sends it to production.
The Design Lab is there when you want to drive: upload, place, and price the design yourself on the exact garment we print.
Here is what Gaines customers actually pay, starting from our light cotton tee. Every price includes a standard front print, and the number only moves down as the pack gets bigger.
| Pieces | Total | Each | Ship | Back print add |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 pack | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 15 pack | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 20 pack | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| 25 pack | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| 50 pack | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| 100 pack | $1200 | $12 ea | FREE | $2 ea |
Back prints add per piece at the rate shown, dropping to $3 at 25 pieces and $2 at 50. Oversized full body fronts add $3 per piece under 25 pieces and $2 at 25 or more, and sizes 2XL and up add $6 each under 25 pieces or $4 each at 25 or more. Heavier garments follow the same pack structure at their own price points, all shown live in the Design Lab.
Send the idea through the quote form or build it yourself in the Design Lab. A napkin sketch photographed on a phone counts, our designers have built full unit runs from less.
Twenty-four hours gets you a designer-built proof on the exact blank you chose. Iterate freely until it is right.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
Production and shipping run 5 to 7 business days standard. Rush options exist and get quoted honestly against your date.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Delivery to Gaines addresses follows one simple clock: 5 to 7 business days including production, with tracking from the moment it leaves. Hit 100 pieces and the shipping line drops to zero.
The roster is the packing list: every size counted into the box, tracking issued at pickup, and any shortage or transit damage made right at our cost without argument.
Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Gaines crew keep dropping the per piece price from there, and free shipping starts at 100.
Vector files such as AI, SVG, EPS, and PDF are ideal. A 300 DPI PNG with a transparent background also prints clean. If all you have is a screenshot, we redraw it free.
We do, at the same pace as domestic orders. Deployed and overseas service members at APO and FPO addresses are covered alongside all 50 states.
That is the point of the Design Lab: the complete number, packs, back prints, size upcharges, shipping, updates live while you design, before any contact form.
The standard clock is 5 to 7 business days covering both production and delivery. Many orders can run faster; name the date and we will confirm or decline honestly.
Yes, and it costs nothing with your order. Send a sketch, an old logo, or just the idea, and a designer sends a print ready proof within 24 hours.
