Custom printed in full color gear for Merriman 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 Merriman, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
With a community of 88 spread over 1.0 square miles, Merriman 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: Martin, SD (17 mi), Cody, NE (23 mi), Batesland, SD (25 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. The closest major installation is Ellsworth Air Force Base, roughly 110 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
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 Merriman.
Because Martin sits only 17 miles from Merriman, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. 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. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
A 10 piece run prints at published pack pricing, in full color, with zero setup. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Unlimited colors at one price, so gradients and photo art cost nothing extra. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Test a design with 10 pieces before committing to a 100-piece screen print run. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Merriman customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
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 Merriman customers, these three earn their keep.
Garment dyed 6.1oz cotton with a washed, premium feel. Full color DTG on this blank looks like retail product, not a print job. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
The boxy 7.5oz cut made for oversized color, front and back. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
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.
The table below is the actual price list Merriman customers order from, light cotton tee, front print included, no asterisks.
| 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.
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.
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.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
The timeline to Merriman addresses is fixed and published: 5 to 7 business days door to door, production included. Shipping rates are flat, visible in the table, and free from 100 pieces.
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 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.
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.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Merriman crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
File quality is our problem, not yours: vectors are ideal, 300 DPI PNGs work, and weak files get redrawn at no charge.
Deployed addresses are first-class here: APO and FPO ship on the standard timeline, right 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.
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.
