DTG and DTF Printing for Sister Bay: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Sister Bay 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 Sister Bay address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Sister Bay at about 1,200 people on 2.7 square miles of Wisconsin, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Ephraim, WI (2 mi), Ellison Bay, WI (5 mi), Baileys Harbor, WI (8 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Coast Guard Air Station Traverse City, roughly 80 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 Sister Bay counted against your roster.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of Wisconsin mixes Sister Bay crews with neighbors like Ephraim, 2 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
The small batch is a first-class order here: 10 piece minimum, no screen fees, full color. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
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. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Test a design with 10 pieces before committing to a 100-piece screen print run. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Retirement, promotion, and gift runs turned around fast. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Sister bay 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.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Sister Bay customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
The boxy 7.5oz cut made for oversized color, front and back. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
The premium pairing: washed heavyweight cotton plus full-color DTG equals shelf-ready product. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Eighty colors deep, this is the dependable canvas for photographic and memorial work. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
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.
Here is what Sister Bay customers actually pay, starting from our light cotton tee. Every price includes a standard front print, and the number only moves down as the pack gets bigger.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pack of 10 | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 15 | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |

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.
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.
The proof arrives inside a day, drawn at print size on your chosen garment and color. Change anything, as often as needed, at no cost.
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.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Delivery to Sister Bay addresses follows one simple clock: 5 to 7 business days including production, with tracking from the moment it leaves. Hit 100 pieces and the shipping line drops to zero.
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.
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.
Extended sizes carry a flat per-piece add: $6 when the order is under 25 pieces, $4 once it reaches 25. The estimate in the Design Lab applies it for you.
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.
The minimum order is 10 pieces. Your sister bay crew can order ten today and a hundred next month; the packs just make each piece cheaper as the count grows.
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.
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.
