Custom Design for Helen: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Helen 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 Helen address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Helen at a community of 600 on 2.1 square miles of Georgia, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Sautee-Nacoochee, GA (3 mi), Yonah, GA (5 mi), Cleveland, GA (8 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. The closest major installation is Anniston Army Depot, roughly 139 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 Helen.
Because Sautee-Nacoochee sits only 3 miles from Helen, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
Merch collections designed with selling in mind, not just decoration. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
The rescue service: old logos rebuilt as clean vector files that print sharp forever. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Crests and emblems built with correct heraldry and licensing rules observed. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Describe it in a sentence; a designer builds it and proofs it within 24 hours. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Typography matched to the era, from Vietnam-period stencil to modern athletic block. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Shirts, banners, and signage drawn as one matched system. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For Helen customers, that means honest timelines, real proofs, and no excuses on delivery day.
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.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Helen customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Serious designs deserve the garment-dyed heavyweight, which reads brand rather than handout. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
The 7.5oz boxy blank is where streetwear concepts land, oversized front or full back. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
The proving ground for new art, with an 80-color palette to frame it perfectly. 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.
The table below is the actual price list Helen customers order from, light cotton tee, front print included, no asterisks.
| Quantity | Pack price | Per shirt | Shipping | Add back print |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 pieces | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 15 pieces | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 20 pieces | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| 25 pieces | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |

| 100 pieces | $1200 | $12 ea | FREE | $2 ea |
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.
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.
Within 24 hours you have a proof in your inbox, drawn to size, on the garment and color you picked. Revisions are unlimited and free.
Production waits for one thing only: your written sign-off on the proof. That signature is the contract for exactly what prints.
From approval, count 5 to 7 business days to your door. If the event is sooner, ask about rush and get a straight yes or no.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
Count 5 to 7 business days, production included, for tracked delivery to Helen addresses. At 100 pieces shipping costs nothing; under that, the flat rates in the table are the whole story.
Orders ship boxed and counted against your size roster, with tracking sent the day they leave. If anything arrives short or damaged, photograph it and send it over, and we correct it at our cost.
Custom work does not come back: due to custom orders, all work is finalized and no returns are accepted. The protection is up front instead, a free proof that must be approved in writing before anything prints, so check sizing and art carefully at that stage.
The minimum order is 10 pieces. Your helen 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, and without giving up your email: the Design Lab keeps the complete total, packs to shipping, on screen while you design.
Count 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, production included. Tighter date? Ask about rush and you get a straight answer before paying.
