Custom designed from scratch gear for Arco businesses, schools, teams, churches, and crews. Proofs in 24 hours, delivered in 5 to 7 days.
Arco crews order designed from scratch 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 Arco address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Arco at a community of 85 on 0.3 square miles of Minnesota, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Ivanhoe, MN (6 mi), Tyler, MN (8 mi), Lake Benton, MN (10 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. For the military community, Camp Ripley sits about 142 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
No storefront visit required. Send a rough idea or finished art, a real designer builds the proof at no charge, and the finished gear ships straight to Arco.
A typical week of custom design orders from this corner of Minnesota mixes Arco crews with neighbors like Ivanhoe, 6 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
A tight little product line, designed to move at the table. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
The rescue service: old logos rebuilt as clean vector files that print sharp forever. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Insignia drawn correctly, with trademark rules respected and flagged. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Start with words alone: the design team turns a description into finished art. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Stencil, athletic, and period-correct lettering matched to the year that matters. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Shirts, banners, and signage drawn as one matched system. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Arco customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
Part of the job is refusing bad orders. When the art, the garment, or the date is wrong, saying so before you pay is the service.
Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Arco customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Max weight, boxy drop, oversized print field: the streetwear formula. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
New designs debut on the Classic: 80-plus colors guarantee the right backdrop for the art. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Put the design on washed heavyweight cotton and it stops being a shirt and starts being merch. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
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.

Beyond the table, the only extras are per-piece and public: back prints at the listed rate stepping down to $3 then $2, oversized fronts at $3 dropping to $2, and 2XL-plus at $6 dropping to $4. The Design Lab does this arithmetic for you in real time.
The first step is just getting the idea out of your head: type it into the quote form or mock it up in the Design Lab, rough edges and all.
A real designer, not an algorithm, sends your proof within 24 hours. You change it as many times as it takes to be right.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
Approval to doorstep runs 5 to 7 business days as the default, faster when rush is booked and honestly refused when it cannot be.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
The timeline to Arco addresses is fixed and published: 5 to 7 business days door to door, production included. Shipping rates are flat, visible in the table, and free from 100 pieces.
Every box leaves counted, tracked, and matched to your roster. Shortages and shipping damage are on us to fix, fast, because delivery day is the only day the customer remembers.
The extended-size rule fits in one line: add $6 per piece below 25 total, $4 per piece at 25 or more. The Design Lab applies it automatically.
Due to custom orders, all work is finalized and no returns are accepted. Double check sizing and artwork before submitting your order. Every order gets a free proof first, and nothing prints until you approve it in writing.
The minimum order is 10 pieces. Your arco crew can order ten today and a hundred next month; the packs just make each piece cheaper as the count grows.
Best case: vector art (AI, SVG, EPS, PDF). Very good case: a 300 DPI transparent PNG. Worst case: a screenshot, which our designers redraw at no charge anyway.
Yes, APO and FPO delivery is standard here, not an exception, and every state in the country ships the same way.
Yes. The Design Lab shows live pack pricing, back print costs, size upcharges, and shipping as you build your design.
