From single pieces to full crew runs, Polk 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 Polk, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Polk is home to a community of 623 across 2.0 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Utica, PA (5 mi), Hannasville, PA (7 mi), Sugarcreek, PA (7 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. Camp Dawson, around 132 miles from Polk, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
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 Polk.
A typical week of custom design orders from this corner of Pennsylvania mixes Polk crews with neighbors like Utica, 5 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
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.
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. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
The year on the shirt sets the type style, and the team knows the difference. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Shirts, banners, and signage drawn as one matched system. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
A small collection designed to sell, not just to exist. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Polk 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.
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.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Polk customers, these three earn their keep.
Most new designs land on the Classic first. 80 plus colors means your art gets the exact backdrop it needs. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Serious designs deserve the garment-dyed heavyweight, which reads brand rather than handout. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Max weight, boxy drop, oversized print field: the streetwear formula. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
The gap between what you have and what a press needs is our designers job to close, free with any order. Whatever the starting point, the output is the same: clean vectors, correct insignia, a proof within 24 hours, and unlimited revisions until you approve it in writing. Only then does anything print.
The Design Lab offers the self-serve path, with your art positioned on real product photos and the total priced as you go.
The table below is the actual price list Polk customers order from, light cotton tee, front print included, no asterisks.

Every heavier garment keeps this same pack shape at its own numbers, and the Design Lab totals it live while you build.
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.
The specs live in our archive permanently: same art, same colors, same result, on demand.
Delivery to Polk addresses follows one simple clock: 5 to 7 business days including production, with tracking from the moment it leaves. Hit 100 pieces and the shipping line drops to zero.
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 standard clock is 5 to 7 business days covering both production and delivery. Many orders can run faster; name the date and we will confirm or decline honestly.
Yes, and it costs nothing with your order. Send a sketch, an old logo, or just the idea, and a designer sends a print ready proof within 24 hours.
Yes. Runs in the hundreds of pieces with mixed sizes and colors are our normal work, managed by one point of contact from proof to delivery.
Extended sizes carry a flat per-piece add: $6 when the order is under 25 pieces, $4 once it reaches 25. The estimate in the Design Lab applies it for you.
Finality is the nature of custom work: no returns once it prints. Your protections live earlier in the process, in the free proof and the written approval that nothing skips.
Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Polk crew keep dropping the per piece price from there, and free shipping starts at 100.
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.
