Custom Design for Oak City: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Oak City 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 Oak City address in 5 to 7 business days.
Oak City is home to a community of 262 across 1.0 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: Hassell, NC (4 mi), Hamilton, NC (6 mi), Hobgood, NC (7 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. Seymour Johnson AFB, around 55 miles from Oak City, 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 Oak City.
Custom Design demand around Oak City does not stop at the town line. Crews from Hassell (4 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
A phone photo of a faded shirt becomes clean, print-ready vector art. 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. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Describe it in a sentence; a designer builds it and proofs it within 24 hours. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Typography matched to the era, from Vietnam-period stencil to modern athletic block. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
One design system across shirts, banners, and signs so everything matches. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Merch collections designed with selling in mind, not just decoration. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Oak city customers feel the difference on the first order.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
The Design Lab puts your art on the real garment, takes your size counts, and totals the whole order, shipping included, without asking who you are.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Oak City customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Put the design on washed heavyweight cotton and it stops being a shirt and starts being merch. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Max weight, boxy drop, oversized print field: the streetwear formula. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
New designs debut on the Classic: 80-plus colors guarantee the right backdrop for the art. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
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.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure Oak City customers see.

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.
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.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
Production and shipping run 5 to 7 business days standard. Rush options exist and get quoted honestly against your date.
Your art and specs stay on file, so reorders match the first run exactly, down to the ink.
The timeline to Oak City 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.
The roster is the packing list: every size counted into the box, tracking issued at pickup, and any shortage or transit damage made right at our cost without argument.
Vector files such as AI, SVG, EPS, and PDF are ideal. A 300 DPI PNG with a transparent background also prints clean. If all you have is a screenshot, we redraw it free.
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.
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.
Included with every order: a designer turns whatever you send into print-ready art, proofs it within 24 hours, and revises free until approved.
Large orders are the specialty, not the exception: hundreds of mixed-size pieces, roster-counted boxes, one accountable contact.
Simple math: 2XL and up cost $6 more per piece on small orders and $4 more per piece from 25 pieces. No other size fees exist, and the Design Lab totals it live.
