From single pieces to full crew runs, Patten 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 Patten, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Patten covers 2.0 square miles of Maine, and delivery reaches every address in it on the standard 5 to 7 day window. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Island Falls, ME (9 mi), Oakfield, ME (16 mi), East Millinocket, ME (27 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, roughly 231 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 Patten counted against your roster.
DTG and DTF Printing demand around Patten does not stop at the town line. Crews from Island Falls (9 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Prove the design at 10 pieces, then scale the winner into a screen-printed hundred. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
When the retirement is Friday, rush printing exists for exactly this. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For Patten customers, that means honest timelines, real proofs, and no excuses on delivery day.
That standard cuts both ways. If your art needs work or your timeline is impossible, we tell you up front and offer the fix, because a bad shirt with our print on it costs us more than the order.
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 Patten customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
The gap between what you have and what a press needs is our designers job to close, free with any order. Whatever the starting point, the output is the same: clean vectors, correct insignia, a proof within 24 hours, and unlimited revisions until you approve it in writing. Only then does anything print.
The Design Lab offers the self-serve path, with your art positioned on real product photos and the total priced as you go.
No mystery pricing. These are the published packs on our light cotton tee, front print included, and Patten customers watch the per piece cost fall as quantity climbs.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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.
Start in the Design Lab on the exact garment we print, or send whatever you have through the quote form. Rough ideas are welcome, that is what the free design service is for.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
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.
Approval to doorstep runs 5 to 7 business days as the default, faster when rush is booked and honestly refused when it cannot be.
The specs live in our archive permanently: same art, same colors, same result, on demand.
The timeline to Patten 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.
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.
The standard clock is 5 to 7 business days covering both production and delivery. Many orders can run faster; name the date and we will confirm or decline honestly.
Yes, and it costs nothing with your order. Send a sketch, an old logo, or just the idea, and a designer sends a print ready proof within 24 hours.
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.
Simple math: 2XL and up cost $6 more per piece on small orders and $4 more per piece from 25 pieces. No other size fees exist, and the Design Lab totals it live.
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 Patten crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
