From single pieces to full crew runs, Mapleton gets printed in full color gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Full color starting at just 10 pieces. Photographs, gradients, and detailed art on ten shirts or one hundred, on cotton, blends, and polyester. For Mapleton, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Mapleton covers 3.0 square miles of Maine, and delivery reaches every address in it on the standard 5 to 7 day window. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Washburn, ME (7 mi), Presque Isle, ME (8 mi), Ashland, ME (12 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. The closest major installation is Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, roughly 279 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Mapleton counted against your roster.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of Maine mixes Mapleton crews with neighbors like Washburn, 7 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
When the retirement is Friday, rush printing exists for exactly this. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Unlimited colors at one price, so gradients and photo art cost nothing extra. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Prove the design at 10 pieces, then scale the winner into a screen-printed hundred. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Mapleton customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
Honesty runs in both directions here. A doomed timeline or a design that will disappoint gets called out early, with an alternative attached.
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.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Mapleton customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Eighty colors deep, this is the dependable canvas for photographic and memorial work. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Finished files are welcome but never required. A faded photo, a hand sketch, or three sentences of description all become professional vector art at no charge, proofed back to you within a day. The revision count is unlimited, the approval is in writing, and production does not move an inch until that approval exists.
Hands-on types can skip the wait entirely: the Design Lab puts your art on the actual garment with the price updating live.
Here is what Mapleton 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.

Three add-ons exist and all are flat per piece: the back print at the table rate ($3 from 25 pieces, $2 from 50), the oversized front at $3 or $2 depending on quantity, and extended sizes at $6 or $4. Nothing else gets added. The Design Lab applies every rule automatically, and the written quote confirms the total before anything is charged.
Send the idea through the quote form or build it yourself in the Design Lab. A napkin sketch photographed on a phone counts, our designers have built full unit runs from less.
A real designer, not an algorithm, sends your proof within 24 hours. You change it as many times as it takes to be right.
Production waits for one thing only: your written sign-off on the proof. That signature is the contract for exactly what prints.
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.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
Production plus shipping to Mapleton addresses runs 5 to 7 business days standard, tracked the whole way. Shipping is free at 100 pieces and flat rated below that, exactly as shown in the pricing table above.
Before sealing, every carton is counted against the size roster, and tracking goes out the same day. Anything short or damaged gets replaced at our cost on an expedited timeline.
Yes, and without giving up your email: the Design Lab keeps the complete total, packs to shipping, on screen while you design.
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 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.
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.
Custom work does not come back: due to custom orders, all work is finalized and no returns are accepted. The protection is up front instead, a free proof that must be approved in writing before anything prints, so check sizing and art carefully at that stage.
