From single pieces to full crew runs, Thruston gets printed large format gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Weatherproof 13oz vinyl banners, retractable stands, and yard signs. Hemmed, grommeted, and printed fast. For Thruston, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Thruston covers 1.8 square miles of Kentucky, and delivery reaches every address in it on the standard 5 to 7 day window. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Philpot, KY (4 mi), Yelvington, KY (5 mi), Maceo, KY (5 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. For the military community, Fort Knox sits about 59 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Thruston.
A typical week of banners and signs orders from this corner of Kentucky mixes Thruston crews with neighbors like Philpot, 4 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
The thirty-second booth: retractable stands for recruiters and expos. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Field and yard signs in quantity, printed on corrugated plastic. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Hem-and-grommet outdoor vinyl sized to the fence line. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Ceremony pieces handled with the gravity the event carries. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Pier-side photo banners sized four by eight, produced on timelines that respect shifting return dates. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Signage for race day and fair day: sponsors, directions, registration. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Thruston customers feel the difference on the first order.
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 Thruston customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
When the event is outdoors in November, the staff gear is a hoodie. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Pair the banner with matching tees in the same order: one approval covers everything. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
The volunteer-shirt companion: light, matched to the signs, priced for volume. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
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.
Here is what Thruston 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 pieces | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 15 pieces | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 20 pieces | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| 25 pieces | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| 50 pieces | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| 100 pieces | $1200 | $12 ea | FREE | $2 ea |
Options price per piece: back prints at the listed rate (falling to $3 at 25 and $2 at 50), oversized full-body fronts at $3 under 25 pieces or $2 above, and 2XL-plus sizes at $6 under 25 pieces or $4 above. Every heavier garment keeps this same pack shape at its own numbers, and the Design Lab totals it live while you build.
Two doors in: the quote form if you want a person on it immediately, or the Design Lab if you want to see it on the garment first. Either way, unfinished ideas are the expected input.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
Nothing goes to press until you approve the proof in writing. What you sign off on is exactly what prints, that is the whole point of the proof.
Five to seven business days covers printing and delivery. Tight timeline? Rush gets a truthful quote, not a hopeful one.
The specs live in our archive permanently: same art, same colors, same result, on demand.
Count 5 to 7 business days, production included, for tracked delivery to Thruston addresses. At 100 pieces shipping costs nothing; under that, the flat rates in the table are the whole story.
Before sealing, every carton is counted against the size roster, and tracking goes out the same day. Anything short or damaged gets replaced at our cost on an expedited timeline.
Yes, and without giving up your email: the Design Lab keeps the complete total, packs to shipping, on screen while you design.
Count 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, production included. Tighter date? Ask about rush and you get a straight answer before paying.
Included with every order: a designer turns whatever you send into print-ready art, proofs it within 24 hours, and revises free until approved.
Large orders are the specialty, not the exception: hundreds of mixed-size pieces, roster-counted boxes, one accountable contact.
Extended sizes carry a flat per-piece add: $6 when the order is under 25 pieces, $4 once it reaches 25. The estimate in the Design Lab applies it for you.
There are no returns on custom orders; once printed, the work is final. That is exactly why production never starts without your written approval of a free proof, and why the size roster deserves a second look before you submit.
Our minimum is 10 pieces. Packs for your Thruston crew begin at 10, the per piece price falls as the count climbs, and shipping goes free at 100.
