From single pieces to full crew runs, Start 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 Start, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
All 3.5 square miles of Start sit inside our normal delivery map, tracked door to door. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Rayville, LA (7 mi), Swartz, LA (9 mi), Lakeshore, LA (10 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. For the military community, Barksdale Air Force Base sits about 104 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Start counted against your roster.
DTG and DTF Printing demand around Start does not stop at the town line. Crews from Rayville (7 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Unlimited colors at one price, so gradients and photo art cost nothing extra. 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. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Different art per shirt in the same order, priced per piece. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
When the retirement is Friday, rush printing exists for exactly this. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
This shop exists for the military community, and it shows in how orders run. Deadlines are treated like formation times, proofs are honest instead of optimistic, and when Start customers call, a person who owns the order answers.
Part of the job is refusing bad orders. When the art, the garment, or the date is wrong, saying so before you pay is the service.
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 Start customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Eighty colors deep, this is the dependable canvas for photographic and memorial work. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
The boxy 7.5oz cut made for oversized color, front and back. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
The premium pairing: washed heavyweight cotton plus full-color DTG equals shelf-ready product. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
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.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure Start customers see.

Options price per piece: back prints at the listed rate (falling to $3 at 25 and $2 at 50), oversized full-body fronts at $3 under 25 pieces or $2 above, and 2XL-plus sizes at $6 under 25 pieces or $4 above. Every heavier garment keeps this same pack shape at its own numbers, and the Design Lab totals it live while you build.
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.
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.
Nothing goes to press until you approve the proof in writing. What you sign off on is exactly what prints, that is the whole point of the proof.
Five to seven business days covers printing and delivery. Tight timeline? Rush gets a truthful quote, not a hopeful one.
The specs live in our archive permanently: same art, same colors, same result, on demand.
The timeline to Start 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.
Orders ship boxed and counted against your size roster, with tracking sent the day they leave. If anything arrives short or damaged, photograph it and send it over, and we correct it at our cost.
File quality is our problem, not yours: vectors are ideal, 300 DPI PNGs work, and weak files get redrawn at no charge.
Deployed addresses are first-class here: APO and FPO ship on the standard timeline, right alongside all 50 states.
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.
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.
Absolutely. Bulk is where pack pricing shines, and big mixed-size runs ship counted against your roster with a single person accountable for the date.
