DTG and DTF Printing for Garvin: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Garvin 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 Garvin address in 5 to 7 business days.
Garvin is home to a community of 119 across 0.3 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Balaton, MN (6 mi), Tracy, MN (7 mi), The Lakes, MN (9 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. The closest major installation is Camp Ripley, roughly 140 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 Garvin.
Because Balaton sits only 6 miles from Garvin, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
Prove the design at 10 pieces, then scale the winner into a screen-printed hundred. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Gift and ceremony runs on compressed timelines, quoted honestly. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Complex art prints as designed: no color counting, no separations, no upcharge. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Garvin customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
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.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Garvin customers, these three earn their keep.
A 7.5oz boxy streetwear blank built for oversized full color hits front and back. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
The premium pairing: washed heavyweight cotton plus full-color DTG equals shelf-ready product. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
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.
Budget planning for Garvin customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pack of 10 | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 15 | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 20 | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 25 | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| Pack of 50 | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| Pack of 100 | $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.
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.
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.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
Production and shipping run 5 to 7 business days standard. Rush options exist and get quoted honestly against your date.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Count 5 to 7 business days, production included, for tracked delivery to Garvin addresses. At 100 pieces shipping costs nothing; under that, the flat rates in the table are the whole story.
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.
Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Garvin crew keep dropping the per piece price from there, and free shipping starts at 100.
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.
Deployed addresses are first-class here: APO and FPO ship on the standard timeline, right alongside all 50 states.
Completely. Build the design in the Design Lab and the full order total sits on screen the whole time; no email, no call, no waiting.
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.
