DTG and DTF Printing for Alder: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Alder crews order printed in full color 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 Alder address in 5 to 7 business days.
Alder covers 2.0 square miles of Montana, and delivery reaches every address in it on the standard 5 to 7 day window. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Virginia City, MT (9 mi), Brandon, MT (10 mi), Sheridan, MT (10 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. For the military community, Malmstrom Air Force Base sits about 156 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
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 Alder.
DTG and DTF Printing demand around Alder does not stop at the town line. Crews from Virginia City (9 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Retirement, promotion, and gift runs turned around fast. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
A 10 piece run prints at published pack pricing, in full color, with zero setup. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Complex art prints as designed: no color counting, no separations, no upcharge. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Test a design with 10 pieces before committing to a 100-piece screen print run. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Alder customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
That standard cuts both ways. If your art needs work or your timeline is impossible, we tell you up front and offer the fix, because a bad shirt with our print on it costs us more than the order.
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 Alder customers, these three earn their keep.
The boxy 7.5oz cut made for oversized color, front and back. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Garment dyed 6.1oz cotton with a washed, premium feel. Full color DTG on this blank looks like retail product, not a print job. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
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.
Here is what Alder customers actually pay, starting from our light cotton tee. Every price includes a standard front print, and the number only moves down as the pack gets bigger.
| Pieces | Total | Each | Ship | Back print add |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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 |
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.
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.
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.
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.

Your art and specs stay on file, so reorders match the first run exactly, down to the ink.

Absolutely. Bulk is where pack pricing shines, and big mixed-size runs ship counted against your roster with a single person accountable for the date.
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.
