Custom printed in full color gear for El Refugio businesses, schools, teams, churches, and crews. Proofs in 24 hours, delivered in 5 to 7 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 El Refugio, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
El Refugio covers 0.6 square miles of Texas, and delivery reaches every address in it on the standard 5 to 7 day window. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with La Puerta, TX (1 mi), El Chaparral, TX (1 mi), Garza-Salinas II, TX (1 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. The closest major installation is Naval Air Station Kingsville, roughly 98 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to El Refugio.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of Texas mixes El Refugio crews with neighbors like La Puerta, 1 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Prove the design at 10 pieces, then scale the winner into a screen-printed hundred. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Different art per shirt in the same order, priced per piece. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
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.
A 10 piece run prints at published pack pricing, in full color, with zero setup. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Photo shirts reproduce the actual photograph, and memorial timelines get priority. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Unlimited colors at one price, so gradients and photo art cost nothing extra. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For El Refugio customers, that means honest timelines, real proofs, and no excuses on delivery day.
Honesty runs in both directions here. A doomed timeline or a design that will disappoint gets called out early, with an alternative attached.
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.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For El Refugio customers, these three earn their keep.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
The premium pairing: washed heavyweight cotton plus full-color DTG equals shelf-ready product. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Eighty colors deep, this is the dependable canvas for photographic and memorial work. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
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.

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.
Kick it off however suits you: describe the concept in the quote form or drop your art straight into the Design Lab. Polish is not required at this stage.
A real designer, not an algorithm, sends your proof within 24 hours. You change it as many times as it takes to be right.
Your written approval is the gate. Until it exists, nothing prints; once it exists, exactly that design prints.

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

That is the point of the Design Lab: the complete number, packs, back prints, size upcharges, shipping, updates live while you design, before any contact form.
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.
Large runs are the core business: hundreds of pieces, mixed sizes, multiple colors, one named contact who owns it from first proof to the delivery scan.
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.
