From single pieces to full crew runs, St. Olaf gets printed in full color gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Full color starting at just 10 pieces. Photographs, gradients, and detailed art on ten shirts or one hundred, on cotton, blends, and polyester. For St. Olaf, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
St. Olaf is home to a community of 102 across 0.2 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Farmersburg, IA (2 mi), Elkader, IA (5 mi), Monona, IA (9 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Fort McCoy, roughly 76 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 St. Olaf counted against your roster.
DTG and DTF Printing demand around St. Olaf does not stop at the town line. Crews from Farmersburg (2 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Retirement, promotion, and gift runs turned around fast. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
A 10 piece run prints at published pack pricing, in full color, with zero setup. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Complex art prints as designed: no color counting, no separations, no upcharge. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Prove the design at 10 pieces, then scale the winner into a screen-printed hundred. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. St. olaf customers feel the difference on the first order.
That standard cuts both ways. If your art needs work or your timeline is impossible, we tell you up front and offer the fix, because a bad shirt with our print on it costs us more than the order.
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.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among St. Olaf customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.

A 7.5oz boxy streetwear blank built for oversized full color hits front and back. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
The gap between what you have and what a press needs is our designers job to close, free with any order. Whatever the starting point, the output is the same: clean vectors, correct insignia, a proof within 24 hours, and unlimited revisions until you approve it in writing. Only then does anything print.
The Design Lab offers the self-serve path, with your art positioned on real product photos and the total priced as you go.
No mystery pricing. These are the published packs on our light cotton tee, front print included, and St. Olaf customers watch the per piece cost fall as quantity climbs.
| Pieces | Total | Each | Ship | Back print add |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 pieces | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 15 pieces | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 20 pieces | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| 25 pieces | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| 50 pieces | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| 100 pieces | $1200 | $12 ea | FREE | $2 ea |
Beyond the table, the only extras are per-piece and public: back prints at the listed rate stepping down to $3 then $2, oversized fronts at $3 dropping to $2, and 2XL-plus at $6 dropping to $4. The Design Lab does this arithmetic for you in real time.
Kick it off however suits you: describe the concept in the quote form or drop your art straight into the Design Lab. Polish is not required at this stage.
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.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
Production and shipping run 5 to 7 business days standard. Rush options exist and get quoted honestly against your date.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Count 5 to 7 business days, production included, for tracked delivery to St. Olaf addresses. At 100 pieces shipping costs nothing; under that, the flat rates in the table are the whole story.
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.
Yes, APO and FPO delivery is standard here, not an exception, and every state in the country ships the same way.
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.
Five to seven business days, all in, from approval to arrival. Rush exists for real deadlines and gets an honest yes or no up front.
Design help is included free. Whatever you have, a napkin sketch, a faded shirt photo, a sentence, becomes a print-ready proof from a real designer within 24 hours.
Yes. Runs in the hundreds of pieces with mixed sizes and colors are our normal work, managed by one point of contact from proof to delivery.
Simple math: 2XL and up cost $6 more per piece on small orders and $4 more per piece from 25 pieces. No other size fees exist, and the Design Lab totals it live.
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.
