DTG and DTF Printing for River Rouge: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
River Rouge 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 River Rouge address in 5 to 7 business days.
With about 6,900 people spread over 2.7 square miles, River Rouge 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: Ecorse, MI (2 mi), Melvindale, MI (3 mi), Lincoln Park, MI (4 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. For the military community, Selfridge Air National Guard Base sits about 26 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
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 River Rouge.
DTG and DTF Printing demand around River Rouge does not stop at the town line. Crews from Ecorse (2 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Test a design with 10 pieces before committing to a 100-piece screen print run. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Retirement, promotion, and gift runs turned around fast. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Photo shirts reproduce the actual photograph, and memorial timelines get priority. 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. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. River rouge customers feel the difference on the first order.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
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 River Rouge customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
A 7.5oz boxy streetwear blank built for oversized full color hits front and back. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Garment dyed 6.1oz cotton with a washed, premium feel. Full color DTG on this blank looks like retail product, not a print job. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
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.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure River Rouge customers see.
| Pieces | Total | Each | Ship | Back print add |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| Pack of 15 | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 20 | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 25 | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 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.
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.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
The timeline to River Rouge 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.
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.
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.
Our minimum is 10 pieces. Packs for your River Rouge crew begin at 10, the per piece price falls as the count climbs, and shipping goes free at 100.
File quality is our problem, not yours: vectors are ideal, 300 DPI PNGs work, and weak files get redrawn at no charge.
We do, at the same pace as domestic orders. Deployed and overseas service members at APO and FPO addresses are covered alongside all 50 states.
That is the point of the Design Lab: the complete number, packs, back prints, size upcharges, shipping, updates live while you design, before any contact form.
Count 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, production included. Tighter date? Ask about rush and you get a straight answer before paying.
