DTG and DTF Printing for Porter: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Porter 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 Porter address in 5 to 7 business days.
With a community of 163 spread over 2.0 square miles, Porter gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Taunton, MN (6 mi), Canby, MN (7 mi), St. Leo, MN (8 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Camp Ripley, roughly 128 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 Porter.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of Minnesota mixes Porter crews with neighbors like Taunton, 6 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Retirement, promotion, and gift runs turned around fast. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
A 10 piece run prints at published pack pricing, in full color, with zero setup. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Photo shirts reproduce the actual photograph, and memorial timelines get priority. 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. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Test a design with 10 pieces before committing to a 100-piece screen print run. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Different art per shirt in the same order, priced per piece. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Porter customers feel the difference on the first order.
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.
Upload art or add text in the Design Lab, set sizes and quantities, and the full estimate, shipping included, is on screen before you give anyone your email.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Porter customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
The reliable choice for photo prints and memorial pieces, with 80 plus colors to match any design. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
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.

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.
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.
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.
Five to seven business days covers printing and delivery. Tight timeline? Rush gets a truthful quote, not a hopeful one.
