From single pieces to full crew runs, Soledad gets printed in full color gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Soledad 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 Soledad address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Soledad at about 24,000 people on 4.5 square miles of California, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Gonzales, CA (9 mi), Chualar, CA (14 mi), King City, CA (18 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Presidio of Monterey, roughly 33 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 Soledad.
Because Gonzales sits only 9 miles from Soledad, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Small batches derisk merch: print ten, sell ten, then commit big. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Gift and ceremony runs on compressed timelines, quoted honestly. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Soledad customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
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 Soledad customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Garment dyed 6.1oz cotton with a washed, premium feel. Full color DTG on this blank looks like retail product, not a print job. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
A 7.5oz boxy streetwear blank built for oversized full color hits front and back. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
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 Soledad 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.

| 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.
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.
Your written approval is the gate. Until it exists, nothing prints; once it exists, exactly that design prints.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
Art, thread colors, and size history stay archived, so the next season run starts with one email.
Production plus shipping to Soledad 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.
Every box leaves counted, tracked, and matched to your roster. Shortages and shipping damage are on us to fix, fast, because delivery day is the only day the customer remembers.
Yes, and without giving up your email: the Design Lab keeps the complete total, packs to shipping, on screen while you design.
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.
Included with every order: a designer turns whatever you send into print-ready art, proofs it within 24 hours, and revises free until approved.
Large orders are the specialty, not the exception: hundreds of mixed-size pieces, roster-counted boxes, one accountable contact.
Sizes 2XL and up add $6 per piece under 25 total pieces, or $4 per piece at 25 or more. The Design Lab includes it in your estimate automatically.
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.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Soledad crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
