Chain O' Lakes orders custom gear here because the pricing is published, the proof is free, and delivery to Wisconsin runs 5 to 7 business days flat.
Crews in Chain O' Lakes 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.
All 3.4 square miles of Chain O' Lakes sit inside our normal delivery map, tracked door to door. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: King, WI (2 mi), Waupaca, WI (5 mi), Scandinavia, WI (9 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. For the military community, Fort McCoy sits about 86 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
The Wisconsin military community orders here too: unit and family gear for Fort McCoy, plus every recruiter, Guard unit, and veteran org chapter around Chain O' Lakes.
The bulk-run classic: pressed ink, published packs, proven durability.
Stitched logos for hats, polos, and jackets that read professional up close.
Full color small runs from just 10 pieces.
All-over color dyed into the fabric, impossible to crack or peel.
13oz vinyl banners and signs sized to be read at distance.
From napkin sketch to print-ready vectors, free with any order.
Spirit gear for schools where the PTA sees the proof and the price before any form goes home. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Shop shirts and stitched caps that make a small crew read like an established company. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
The civic calendar runs on volunteers, and volunteers run better in matching shirts. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Mission trip tees and congregation gear at pack rates a committee can approve. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
5K tees, tournament shirts, and memorial fundraiser runs delivered before event day. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
From the dugout to the bleachers: team and booster runs with all sizes priced together. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Chain o' lakes customers feel the difference on the first order.
That standard cuts both ways. If your art needs work or your timeline is impossible, we tell you up front and offer the fix, because a bad shirt with our print on it costs us more than the order.
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 Chain O' Lakes customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
The budget workhorse for big runs. 4.5oz light ringspun cotton that keeps a 100 piece order affordable, from $12 a shirt at volume with the front print included. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
The default unit shirt: heavy cotton, an 80-color palette, and a fit that survives the wash cycle. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
The clean-front fleece crew: 8.0oz, no pocket, no hood, maximum canvas for crests and block letters. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Every order includes the design team. They rescue low-resolution logos, invent art from plain descriptions, and keep insignia and period typography accurate when the concept demands it. Twenty-four hours after you send the idea, the proof is in your inbox; as many revisions as it takes come free, and your written sign-off is what starts the presses.
Or open the Design Lab and lay the design out yourself, priced in real time on the exact blank.
Here is what Chain O' Lakes 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.

Every heavier garment keeps this same pack shape at its own numbers, and the Design Lab totals it live while you build.
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.
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.
Approval to doorstep runs 5 to 7 business days as the default, faster when rush is booked and honestly refused when it cannot be.
Your art and specs stay on file, so reorders match the first run exactly, down to the ink.
Every order ships tracked to Chain O' Lakes addresses with standard production plus shipping at 5 to 7 business days. Free shipping kicks in at 100 pieces, and pack shipping rates below that are published, not surprises at checkout.
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.
File quality is our problem, not yours: vectors are ideal, 300 DPI PNGs work, and weak files get redrawn at no charge.
