From single pieces to full crew runs, Merrill gets designed from scratch gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Merrill 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 Merrill address in 5 to 7 business days.
Merrill is home to a community of 834 across 0.5 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Tulelake, CA (8 mi), Malin, OR (10 mi), Falcon Heights, OR (11 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. Kingsley Field, around 16 miles from Merrill, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Merrill.
Because Tulelake sits only 8 miles from Merrill, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
A small collection designed to sell, not just to exist. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
A phone photo of a faded shirt becomes clean, print-ready vector art. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Unit art drawn right the first time, with anything trademark-sensitive flagged early. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Start with words alone: the design team turns a description into finished art. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Stencil, athletic, and period-correct lettering matched to the year that matters. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
One design system across shirts, banners, and signs so everything matches. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For Merrill 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.
Upload art or add text in the Design Lab, set sizes and quantities, and the full estimate, shipping included, is on screen before you give anyone your email.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Merrill customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
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.
Serious designs deserve the garment-dyed heavyweight, which reads brand rather than handout. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
The 7.5oz boxy blank is where streetwear concepts land, oversized front or full back. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
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.
The table below is the actual price list Merrill customers order from, light cotton tee, front print included, no asterisks.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pack of 10 | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 15 | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 20 | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 25 | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| Pack of 50 | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| Pack of 100 | $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.
Two doors in: the quote form if you want a person on it immediately, or the Design Lab if you want to see it on the garment first. Either way, unfinished ideas are the expected input.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
Production waits for one thing only: your written sign-off on the proof. That signature is the contract for exactly what prints.
Five to seven business days covers printing and delivery. Tight timeline? Rush gets a truthful quote, not a hopeful one.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Production plus shipping to Merrill 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.
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 minimum order is 10 pieces. Your merrill 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.
Deployed addresses are first-class here: APO and FPO ship on the standard timeline, right alongside all 50 states.
Yes, and without giving up your email: the Design Lab keeps the complete total, packs to shipping, on screen while you design.
Standard production plus shipping takes 5 to 7 business days. Rush options are available on many orders, tell us your date and we answer honestly.
Always, at no charge. A designer takes your rough input, redraws it print ready, and has a proof in your inbox inside a day, with unlimited revisions after.
