DTG and DTF Printing for Elsie: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Elsie 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 Elsie address in 5 to 7 business days.
With a community of 942 spread over 1.1 square miles, Elsie 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: Ovid, MI (6 mi), Eureka, MI (6 mi), Ashley, MI (8 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. For the military community, Selfridge Air National Guard Base sits about 84 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Elsie counted against your roster.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of Michigan mixes Elsie crews with neighbors like Ovid, 6 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
The small batch is a first-class order here: 10 piece minimum, no screen fees, full color. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Unlimited colors at one price, so gradients and photo art cost nothing extra. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Test a design with 10 pieces before committing to a 100-piece screen print run. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Different art per shirt in the same order, priced per piece. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
When the retirement is Friday, rush printing exists for exactly this. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
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 Elsie customers call, a person who owns the order answers.
It also means we say no when we should. If a design will not print well at the size you want, or a date cannot be hit, you hear it before you spend money, not after.
Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Elsie customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
The reliable choice for photo prints and memorial pieces, with 80 plus colors to match any design. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
A 7.5oz boxy streetwear blank built for oversized full color hits front and back. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Design help is not an upsell here, it is how orders start. Describe the concept in a sentence, attach whatever reference you have, and within 24 hours a real designer returns a proof drawn as clean vectors, era-correct where it matters. Revisions cost nothing and continue until the proof is right, and your written approval is the only thing that sends it to production.
The Design Lab is there when you want to drive: upload, place, and price the design yourself on the exact garment we print.
Here is what Elsie customers actually pay, starting from our light cotton tee. Every price includes a standard front print, and the number only moves down as the pack gets bigger.
| 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 |
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.
The first step is just getting the idea out of your head: type it into the quote form or mock it up in the Design Lab, rough edges and all.
Twenty-four hours gets you a designer-built proof on the exact blank you chose. Iterate freely until it is right.
Nothing goes to press until you approve the proof in writing. What you sign off on is exactly what prints, that is the whole point of the proof.
From approval, count 5 to 7 business days to your door. If the event is sooner, ask about rush and get a straight yes or no.
The specs live in our archive permanently: same art, same colors, same result, on demand.
Every order ships tracked to Elsie 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.
The roster is the packing list: every size counted into the box, tracking issued at pickup, and any shortage or transit damage made right at our cost without argument.
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.
Sizes 2XL and up add $6 per piece under 25 total pieces, or $4 per piece at 25 or more. The Design Lab includes it in your estimate automatically.
Finality is the nature of custom work: no returns once it prints. Your protections live earlier in the process, in the free proof and the written approval that nothing skips.
Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Elsie crew keep dropping the per piece price from there, and free shipping starts at 100.
File quality is our problem, not yours: vectors are ideal, 300 DPI PNGs work, and weak files get redrawn at no charge.
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.
Yes, and without giving up your email: the Design Lab keeps the complete total, packs to shipping, on screen while you design.
