From single pieces to full crew runs, Bonesteel gets designed from scratch gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
In-house designers turn napkin sketches and old low-res logos into print-ready vector art. Free with every order, proof in 24 hours. For Bonesteel, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Bonesteel at a community of 257 on 0.4 square miles of South Dakota, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Fairfax, SD (4 mi), St. Charles, SD (8 mi), Anoka, NE (11 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Offutt Air Force Base, roughly 204 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Bonesteel counted against your roster.
A typical week of custom design orders from this corner of South Dakota mixes Bonesteel crews with neighbors like Fairfax, 4 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
The year on the shirt sets the type style, and the team knows the difference. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
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.
Merch collections designed with selling in mind, not just decoration. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Faded, blurry, or tiny source art gets redrawn into crisp vectors. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Unit art drawn right the first time, with anything trademark-sensitive flagged early. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
A sentence of description is enough input for a full designed proof inside a day. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
This shop exists for the military community, and it shows in how orders run. Deadlines are treated like formation times, proofs are honest instead of optimistic, and when Bonesteel customers call, a person who owns the order answers.
Honesty runs in both directions here. A doomed timeline or a design that will disappoint gets called out early, with an alternative attached.
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 Bonesteel customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Most new designs land on the Classic first. 80 plus colors means your art gets the exact backdrop it needs. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Put the design on washed heavyweight cotton and it stops being a shirt and starts being merch. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
The 7.5oz boxy blank is where streetwear concepts land, oversized front or full back. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Half the orders we take begin as a phone photo of a sketch, an old shirt, or a sentence describing the idea. A designer turns that into print-ready vector art at no charge, sends the proof inside 24 hours, and revises it until you sign off in writing. Nothing is produced before that signature, which is why what shows up matches what you expected.
Prefer hands-on? Build the design yourself in the Design Lab on real product photos, with the running price on screen while you work.
Budget planning for Bonesteel customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.

| 100 pack | $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.
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.
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.
Production and shipping run 5 to 7 business days standard. Rush options exist and get quoted honestly against your date.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Production plus shipping to Bonesteel addresses runs 5 to 7 business days standard, tracked the whole way. Shipping is free at 100 pieces and flat rated below that, exactly as shown in the pricing table above.
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.
The minimum order is 10 pieces. Your bonesteel crew can order ten today and a hundred next month; the packs just make each piece cheaper as the count grows.
Send whatever exists. Vectors print perfectly, high resolution PNGs print clean, and anything below that gets redrawn free by the design team before it goes near a press.
We do, at the same pace as domestic orders. Deployed and overseas service members at APO and FPO addresses are covered alongside all 50 states.
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.
