Custom designed from scratch gear for Blum businesses, schools, teams, churches, and crews. Proofs in 24 hours, delivered in 5 to 7 days.
Blum 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 Blum address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Blum at a community of 406 on 1.0 square miles of Texas, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Rio Vista, TX (7 mi), Kopperl, TX (8 mi), Covington, TX (8 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. The closest major installation is NAS JRB Fort Worth, roughly 44 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
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 Blum.
A typical week of custom design orders from this corner of Texas mixes Blum crews with neighbors like Rio Vista, 7 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. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
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.
Unit art drawn right the first time, with anything trademark-sensitive flagged early. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
A sentence of description is enough input for a full designed proof inside a day. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
The year on the shirt sets the type style, and the team knows the difference. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
A single visual system covering everything the event prints. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Blum customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Blum customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Put the design on washed heavyweight cotton and it stops being a shirt and starts being merch. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
The 7.5oz boxy blank is where streetwear concepts land, oversized front or full back. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Most new designs land on the Classic first. 80 plus colors means your art gets the exact backdrop it needs. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
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.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure Blum customers see.

Add-on pricing is deliberately boring: back print per the table (later $3, then $2), oversize front $3 or $2 by volume, extended sizes $6 or $4 by volume. That is the complete list, and the Design Lab computes it live before any quote is written.
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.
The proof arrives inside a day, drawn at print size on your chosen garment and color. Change anything, as often as needed, at no cost.
You approve in writing before production starts. No surprises at the box opening, because you already saw the shirt.
Five to seven business days covers printing and delivery. Tight timeline? Rush gets a truthful quote, not a hopeful one.
Art, thread colors, and size history stay archived, so the next season run starts with one email.
Count 5 to 7 business days, production included, for tracked delivery to Blum 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.
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.
Five to seven business days, all in, from approval to arrival. Rush exists for real deadlines and gets an honest yes or no up front.
Design help is included free. Whatever you have, a napkin sketch, a faded shirt photo, a sentence, becomes a print-ready proof from a real designer within 24 hours.
Large runs are the core business: hundreds of pieces, mixed sizes, multiple colors, one named contact who owns it from first proof to the delivery scan.
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.
