DTG and DTF Printing for University City: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.

Census numbers put University City at about 34,000 people on 5.9 square miles of Missouri, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Hanley Hills, MO (1 mi), Clayton, MO (1 mi), Pagedale, MO (2 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. Scott Air Force Base, around 21 miles from University City, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in University City counted against your roster.
DTG and DTF Printing demand around University City does not stop at the town line. Crews from Hanley Hills (1 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. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Gift and ceremony runs on compressed timelines, quoted honestly. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
The small batch is a first-class order here: 10 piece minimum, no screen fees, full color. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Complex art prints as designed: no color counting, no separations, no upcharge. 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. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. University city 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.
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 University City customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
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.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Half the orders we take begin as a phone photo of a sketch, an old shirt, or a sentence describing the idea. A designer turns that into print-ready vector art at no charge, sends the proof inside 24 hours, and revises it until you sign off in writing. Nothing is produced before that signature, which is why what shows up matches what you expected.
Prefer hands-on? Build the design yourself in the Design Lab on real product photos, with the running price on screen while you work.
Budget planning for University City 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 |
| 20 pack | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| 25 pack | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |

| 100 pack | $1200 | $12 ea | FREE | $2 ea |
Add-on pricing is deliberately boring: back print per the table (later $3, then $2), oversize front $3 or $2 by volume, extended sizes $6 or $4 by volume. That is the complete list, and the Design Lab computes it live before any quote is written.
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.
Twenty-four hours gets you a designer-built proof on the exact blank you chose. Iterate freely until it is 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.
Production and shipping run 5 to 7 business days standard. Rush options exist and get quoted honestly against your date.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
Production plus shipping to University City 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.
Before sealing, every carton is counted against the size roster, and tracking goes out the same day. Anything short or damaged gets replaced at our cost on an expedited timeline.
The extended-size rule fits in one line: add $6 per piece below 25 total, $4 per piece at 25 or more. The Design Lab applies it 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.
Our minimum is 10 pieces. Packs for your University City crew begin at 10, the per piece price falls as the count climbs, and shipping goes free at 100.
Vector files such as AI, SVG, EPS, and PDF are ideal. A 300 DPI PNG with a transparent background also prints clean. If all you have is a screenshot, we redraw it free.
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.
