DTG and DTF Printing for Tomales: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Tomales 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 Tomales address in 5 to 7 business days.
Tomales covers 0.3 square miles of California, and delivery reaches every address in it on the standard 5 to 7 day window. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Dillon Beach, CA (3 mi), Valley Ford, CA (5 mi), Petaluma Center, CA (6 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Coast Guard Training Center Petaluma, roughly 15 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 Tomales.
DTG and DTF Printing demand around Tomales does not stop at the town line. Crews from Dillon Beach (3 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Gift and ceremony runs on compressed timelines, quoted honestly. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
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. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Different art per shirt in the same order, priced per piece. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Tomales customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
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 Tomales 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.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Eighty colors deep, this is the dependable canvas for photographic and memorial work. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Most orders here start without finished artwork, and that is fine. Our in-house designers redraw low resolution logos as clean vectors, build new designs from a written description, and match era-correct type and insignia when the design calls for it. The service costs nothing with an order, the first proof lands within 24 hours, and revisions are unlimited. You approve the final art in writing before production, so the shirt that arrives is the shirt you signed off on.
Want to try it yourself first? The Design Lab lets you upload art, add text in stencil and athletic fonts, and position everything on the exact garment with live pricing the whole time.
Budget planning for Tomales customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.

| 15 pack | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 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.
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.
A real designer, not an algorithm, sends your proof within 24 hours. You change it as many times as it takes to be right.
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.
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.
Your art and specs stay on file, so reorders match the first run exactly, down to the ink.
Production plus shipping to Tomales 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.
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.
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.
Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Tomales crew keep dropping the per piece price from there, and free shipping starts at 100.
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, APO and FPO delivery is standard here, not an exception, and every state in the country ships the same way.
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.
