From single pieces to full crew runs, Urbana gets printed in full color gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Urbana 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 Urbana address in 5 to 7 business days.
Urbana is home to about 1,600 people across 1.8 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: Center Point, IA (6 mi), Walker, IA (7 mi), Brandon, IA (8 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. For the military community, Rock Island Arsenal sits about 85 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 Urbana counted against your roster.
Because Center Point sits only 6 miles from Urbana, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Retirement, promotion, and gift runs turned around fast. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
A 10 piece run prints at published pack pricing, in full color, with zero setup. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Unlimited colors at one price, so gradients and photo art cost nothing extra. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Small batches derisk merch: print ten, sell ten, then commit big. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Urbana customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained 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.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Urbana customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real 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. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
The reliable choice for photo prints and memorial pieces, with 80 plus colors to match any design. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
A 7.5oz boxy streetwear blank built for oversized full color hits front and back. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
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.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure Urbana customers see.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pack of 10 | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 15 | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 20 | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 25 | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| Pack of 50 | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| Pack of 100 | $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.
Two doors in: the quote form if you want a person on it immediately, or the Design Lab if you want to see it on the garment first. Either way, unfinished ideas are the expected input.
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.
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.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Delivery to Urbana addresses follows one simple clock: 5 to 7 business days including production, with tracking from the moment it leaves. Hit 100 pieces and the shipping line drops to zero.
The roster is the packing list: every size counted into the box, tracking issued at pickup, and any shortage or transit damage made right at our cost without argument.
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.
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.
Extended sizes carry a flat per-piece add: $6 when the order is under 25 pieces, $4 once it reaches 25. The estimate in the Design Lab applies it for you.
There are no returns on custom orders; once printed, the work is final. That is exactly why production never starts without your written approval of a free proof, and why the size roster deserves a second look before you submit.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Urbana crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
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.
