Custom printed in full color gear for Elida businesses, schools, teams, churches, and crews. Proofs in 24 hours, delivered in 5 to 7 days.
Elida 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 Elida address in 5 to 7 business days.
With about 1,900 people spread over 1.2 square miles, Elida gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Gomer, OH (4 mi), Lima, OH (6 mi), Cairo, OH (7 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. Wright-Patterson AFB, around 69 miles from Elida, 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 Elida.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of Ohio mixes Elida crews with neighbors like Gomer, 4 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
When the retirement is Friday, rush printing exists for exactly this. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
A 10 piece run prints at published pack pricing, in full color, with zero setup. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Prove the design at 10 pieces, then scale the winner into a screen-printed hundred. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
This shop exists for the military community, and it shows in how orders run. Deadlines are treated like formation times, proofs are honest instead of optimistic, and when Elida customers call, a person who owns the order answers.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
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 Elida customers, these three earn their keep.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
The premium pairing: washed heavyweight cotton plus full-color DTG equals shelf-ready product. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
The reliable choice for photo prints and memorial pieces, with 80 plus colors to match any design. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Every order includes the design team. They rescue low-resolution logos, invent art from plain descriptions, and keep insignia and period typography accurate when the concept demands it. Twenty-four hours after you send the idea, the proof is in your inbox; as many revisions as it takes come free, and your written sign-off is what starts the presses.
Or open the Design Lab and lay the design out yourself, priced in real time on the exact blank.
No mystery pricing. These are the published packs on our light cotton tee, front print included, and Elida customers watch the per piece cost fall as quantity climbs.

Every heavier garment keeps this same pack shape at its own numbers, and the Design Lab totals it live while you build.
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.
You approve in writing before production starts. No surprises at the box opening, because you already saw the shirt.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
Your art and specs stay on file, so reorders match the first run exactly, down to the ink.
Every order ships tracked to Elida 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.
The minimum order is 10 pieces. Your elida crew can order ten today and a hundred next month; the packs just make each piece cheaper as the count grows.
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.
