T-ShirtVeterans
Custom printed in full color gear for Scales Mound 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 Scales Mound, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
With a community of 426 spread over 0.6 square miles, Scales Mound 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: Apple Canyon Lake, IL (6 mi), The Galena Territory, IL (7 mi), Shullsburg, WI (7 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. Rock Island Arsenal, around 71 miles from Scales Mound, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Scales Mound counted against your roster.
DTG and DTF Printing demand around Scales Mound does not stop at the town line. Crews from Apple Canyon Lake (6 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
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.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
When the retirement is Friday, rush printing exists for exactly this. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Scales mound 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.
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.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Scales Mound customers, these three earn their keep.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
The premium pairing: washed heavyweight cotton plus full-color DTG equals shelf-ready product. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Half the orders we take begin as a phone photo of a sketch, an old shirt, or a sentence describing the idea. A designer turns that into print-ready vector art at no charge, sends the proof inside 24 hours, and revises it until you sign off in writing. Nothing is produced before that signature, which is why what shows up matches what you expected.
Prefer hands-on? Build the design yourself in the Design Lab on real product photos, with the running price on screen while you work.

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.
Two doors in: the quote form if you want a person on it immediately, or the Design Lab if you want to see it on the garment first. Either way, unfinished ideas are the expected input.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
From approval, count 5 to 7 business days to your door. If the event is sooner, ask about rush and get a straight yes or no.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
Production plus shipping to Scales Mound addresses runs 5 to 7 business days standard, tracked the whole way. Shipping is free at 100 pieces and flat rated below that, exactly as shown in the pricing table above.
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.
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 Scales Mound crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
Best case: vector art (AI, SVG, EPS, PDF). Very good case: a 300 DPI transparent PNG. Worst case: a screenshot, which our designers redraw at no charge anyway.
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.
