DTG and DTF Printing for Chautauqua: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Chautauqua 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 Chautauqua address in 5 to 7 business days.
With a community of 107 spread over 0.4 square miles, Chautauqua 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: Elgin, KS (6 mi), Peru, KS (6 mi), Sedan, KS (7 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. The closest major installation is McConnell Air Force Base, roughly 79 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
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 Chautauqua.
Because Elgin sits only 6 miles from Chautauqua, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
Test a design with 10 pieces before committing to a 100-piece screen print run. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Gift and ceremony runs on compressed timelines, quoted honestly. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
A 10 piece run prints at published pack pricing, in full color, with zero setup. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Photo shirts reproduce the actual photograph, and memorial timelines get priority. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
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.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Chautauqua customers feel the difference on the first order.
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.
Upload art or add text in the Design Lab, set sizes and quantities, and the full estimate, shipping included, is on screen before you give anyone your email.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Chautauqua customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Garment dyed 6.1oz cotton with a washed, premium feel. Full color DTG on this blank looks like retail product, not a print job. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
The reliable choice for photo prints and memorial pieces, with 80 plus colors to match any design. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Most orders here start without finished artwork, and that is fine. Our in-house designers redraw low resolution logos as clean vectors, build new designs from a written description, and match era-correct type and insignia when the design calls for it. The service costs nothing with an order, the first proof lands within 24 hours, and revisions are unlimited. You approve the final art in writing before production, so the shirt that arrives is the shirt you signed off on.
Want to try it yourself first? The Design Lab lets you upload art, add text in stencil and athletic fonts, and position everything on the exact garment with live pricing the whole time.
No mystery pricing. These are the published packs on our light cotton tee, front print included, and Chautauqua customers watch the per piece cost fall as quantity climbs.
| Pieces | Total | Each | Ship | Back print add |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 pack | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 15 pack | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 20 pack | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| 25 pack | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| 50 pack | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| 100 pack | $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.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
The specs live in our archive permanently: same art, same colors, same result, on demand.
Every order ships tracked to Chautauqua 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.
Boxes get counted twice against the roster before they seal, and the tracking number reaches you the day of pickup. Damage or shortage claims are our expense and our rush.
Standard production plus shipping takes 5 to 7 business days. Rush options are available on many orders, tell us your date and we answer honestly.
Always, at no charge. A designer takes your rough input, redraws it print ready, and has a proof in your inbox inside a day, with unlimited revisions after.
Large orders are the specialty, not the exception: hundreds of mixed-size pieces, roster-counted boxes, one accountable contact.
The extended-size rule fits in one line: add $6 per piece below 25 total, $4 per piece at 25 or more. The Design Lab applies it automatically.
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.
Our minimum is 10 pieces. Packs for your Chautauqua crew begin at 10, the per piece price falls as the count climbs, and shipping goes free at 100.
