DTG and DTF Printing for Montrose: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Montrose 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 Montrose address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Montrose at about 3,900 people on 3.1 square miles of Minnesota, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Waverly, MN (2 mi), Delano, MN (7 mi), Howard Lake, MN (7 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. Camp Ripley, around 67 miles from Montrose, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Montrose.
Because Waverly sits only 2 miles from Montrose, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Complex art prints as designed: no color counting, no separations, no upcharge. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Test a design with 10 pieces before committing to a 100-piece screen print run. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
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.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Montrose customers feel the difference on the first order.
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.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Montrose customers, these three earn their keep.
Eighty colors deep, this is the dependable canvas for photographic and memorial work. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
A 7.5oz boxy streetwear blank built for oversized full color hits front and back. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Most orders here start without finished artwork, and that is fine. Our in-house designers redraw low resolution logos as clean vectors, build new designs from a written description, and match era-correct type and insignia when the design calls for it. The service costs nothing with an order, the first proof lands within 24 hours, and revisions are unlimited. You approve the final art in writing before production, so the shirt that arrives is the shirt you signed off on.
Want to try it yourself first? The Design Lab lets you upload art, add text in stencil and athletic fonts, and position everything on the exact garment with live pricing the whole time.
The table below is the actual price list Montrose customers order from, light cotton tee, front print included, no asterisks.

| 100 pieces | $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.
Within 24 hours you have a proof in your inbox, drawn to size, on the garment and color you picked. Revisions are unlimited and free.
You approve in writing before production starts. No surprises at the box opening, because you already saw the shirt.
Approval to doorstep runs 5 to 7 business days as the default, faster when rush is booked and honestly refused when it cannot be.
Your art and specs stay on file, so reorders match the first run exactly, down to the ink.
The timeline to Montrose 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.
Orders ship boxed and counted against your size roster, with tracking sent the day they leave. If anything arrives short or damaged, photograph it and send it over, and we correct it at our cost.
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.
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.
Due to custom orders, all work is finalized and no returns are accepted. Double check sizing and artwork before submitting your order. Every order gets a free proof first, and nothing prints until you approve it in writing.
Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Montrose 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.
Yes. We ship to all 50 states and to APO and FPO addresses for deployed and overseas service members.
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.
