DTG and DTF Printing for Chatham: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Full color starting at just 10 pieces. Photographs, gradients, and detailed art on ten shirts or one hundred, on cotton, blends, and polyester. For Chatham, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
With a community of 216 spread over 2.5 square miles, Chatham gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Munising, MI (16 mi), K. I. Sawyer, MI (21 mi), Rock, MI (22 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. Coast Guard Air Station Traverse City, around 127 miles from Chatham, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Chatham counted against your roster.
Because Munising sits only 16 miles from Chatham, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
Complex art prints as designed: no color counting, no separations, no upcharge. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Small batches derisk merch: print ten, sell ten, then commit big. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Gift and ceremony runs on compressed timelines, quoted honestly. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
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. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Chatham customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
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.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Chatham customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
The reliable choice for photo prints and memorial pieces, with 80 plus colors to match any design. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
The boxy 7.5oz cut made for oversized color, front and back. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Finished files are welcome but never required. A faded photo, a hand sketch, or three sentences of description all become professional vector art at no charge, proofed back to you within a day. The revision count is unlimited, the approval is in writing, and production does not move an inch until that approval exists.
Hands-on types can skip the wait entirely: the Design Lab puts your art on the actual garment with the price updating live.

You approve in writing before production starts. No surprises at the box opening, because you already saw the shirt.

Every order ships tracked to Chatham addresses with standard production plus shipping at 5 to 7 business days. Free shipping kicks in at 100 pieces, and pack shipping rates below that are published, not surprises at checkout.
Orders ship boxed and counted against your size roster, with tracking sent the day they leave. If anything arrives short or damaged, photograph it and send it over, and we correct it at our cost.
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.
Custom work does not come back: due to custom orders, all work is finalized and no returns are accepted. The protection is up front instead, a free proof that must be approved in writing before anything prints, so check sizing and art carefully at that stage.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Chatham crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
Send whatever exists. Vectors print perfectly, high resolution PNGs print clean, and anything below that gets redrawn free by the design team before it goes near a press.
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.
