From single pieces to full crew runs, Big Bay gets printed in full color gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Full color starting at just 10 pieces. Photographs, gradients, and detailed art on ten shirts or one hundred, on cotton, blends, and polyester. For Big Bay, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
All 3.9 square miles of Big Bay sit inside our normal delivery map, tracked door to door. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Trowbridge Park, MI (22 mi), West Ishpeming, MI (23 mi), Negaunee, MI (23 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. Coast Guard Air Station Traverse City, around 175 miles from Big Bay, 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 Big Bay.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of Michigan mixes Big Bay crews with neighbors like Trowbridge Park, 22 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Complex art prints as designed: no color counting, no separations, no upcharge. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Test a design with 10 pieces before committing to a 100-piece screen print run. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Retirement, promotion, and gift runs turned around fast. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For Big Bay customers, that means honest timelines, real proofs, and no excuses on delivery day.
Part of the job is refusing bad orders. When the art, the garment, or the date is wrong, saying so before you pay is the service.
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 Big Bay customers, these three earn their keep.
A 7.5oz boxy streetwear blank built for oversized full color hits front and back. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
The premium pairing: washed heavyweight cotton plus full-color DTG equals shelf-ready product. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Half the orders we take begin as a phone photo of a sketch, an old shirt, or a sentence describing the idea. A designer turns that into print-ready vector art at no charge, sends the proof inside 24 hours, and revises it until you sign off in writing. Nothing is produced before that signature, which is why what shows up matches what you expected.
Prefer hands-on? Build the design yourself in the Design Lab on real product photos, with the running price on screen while you work.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure Big Bay customers see.

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.
Start in the Design Lab on the exact garment we print, or send whatever you have through the quote form. Rough ideas are welcome, that is what the free design service is for.
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.
Your written approval is the gate. Until it exists, nothing prints; once it exists, exactly that design prints.
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.
The timeline to Big Bay 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.
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.
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.
There are no returns on custom orders; once printed, the work is final. That is exactly why production never starts without your written approval of a free proof, and why the size roster deserves a second look before you submit.
Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Big Bay 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.
Yes. We ship to all 50 states and to APO and FPO addresses for deployed and overseas service members.
