T-ShirtVeterans
Custom apparel delivered to Calais, Maine in 5 to 7 business days. Low 10 piece minimum, free design help, pack pricing published up front.
Crews in Calais order from us the same way the big-city ones do: published pack pricing, free design help, and a written proof before a single shirt prints.
With about 3,100 people spread over 34.3 square miles, Calais gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Woodland, ME (9 mi), Eastport, ME (19 mi), Lubec, ME (23 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. The closest major installation is Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, roughly 225 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
The Maine military community orders here too: unit and family gear for Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, plus every recruiter, Guard unit, and veteran org chapter around Calais.
Best per-piece price at volume, with ink that outlives the garment.
Stitched logos for hats, polos, and jackets that read professional up close.
Full color small runs from just 10 pieces.
The all-over method: dye becomes part of the polyester itself.
Homecoming banners and event signage built for outdoors.
Logo cleanups, redraws, and full concepts from the in-house team.
Team shirts, fan tees, and booster fundraisers with youth and adult sizes mixed in one pack. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Spirit gear for schools where the PTA sees the proof and the price before any form goes home. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Workwear for local crews: printed tees, embroidered polos, gear that outlasts the season. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
The civic calendar runs on volunteers, and volunteers run better in matching shirts. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Group apparel for congregations, mission trips, and food drives at honest pack pricing. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
5K tees, tournament shirts, and memorial fundraiser runs delivered before event day. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Calais customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
It also means we say no when we should. If a design will not print well at the size you want, or a date cannot be hit, you hear it before you spend money, not after.
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.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Calais customers, these three earn their keep.
An 8.0oz fleece crew with a clean uninterrupted front, the best canvas we stock for big crests and old school block lettering. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Big-run economics start here: light ringspun cotton from $12 at volume, with the front print already in the price. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Eighty-plus colors of 5.3oz heavy cotton, from military green to every heather, that keeps its shape through the laundry years. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
The gap between what you have and what a press needs is our designers job to close, free with any order. Whatever the starting point, the output is the same: clean vectors, correct insignia, a proof within 24 hours, and unlimited revisions until you approve it in writing. Only then does anything print.
The Design Lab offers the self-serve path, with your art positioned on real product photos and the total priced as you go.
Budget planning for Calais customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.

Three add-ons exist and all are flat per piece: the back print at the table rate ($3 from 25 pieces, $2 from 50), the oversized front at $3 or $2 depending on quantity, and extended sizes at $6 or $4. Nothing else gets added. The Design Lab applies every rule automatically, and the written quote confirms the total before anything is charged.
Start in the Design Lab on the exact garment we print, or send whatever you have through the quote form. Rough ideas are welcome, that is what the free design service is for.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.

Art, thread colors, and size history stay archived, so the next season run starts with one email.
