Custom printed in full color gear for Air Force personnel at US Air Force Academy, printed by veterans and delivered to base or door in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
Units at US Air Force Academy order printed in full color gear from us because the process respects how Air Force orders actually run: one named contact, a proof in 24 hours, and a date that gets treated like a formation time.
The Colorado Springs area around the installation holds about 489,000 people, every address of it inside the standard 5 to 7 day window. Orders regularly split between the installation and nearby Cimarron Hills, CO (3 mi), Stratmoor, CO (7 mi), Manitou Springs, CO (8 mi), at no difference in price or timeline.
Whether it is a full unit run or a single retirement piece, pricing is published up front, the front decoration is included in every price, and nothing goes to production until your point of contact signs off on the proof in writing.
Between the installation, Colorado Springs, and Cimarron Hills just 3 miles away, one dtg and dtf printing order often serves the unit, the families, and the booster club at once.
Gift and ceremony runs on compressed timelines, quoted honestly. 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. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Test a design with 10 pieces before committing to a 100-piece screen print run. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Different art per shirt in the same order, priced per piece. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For Air Force units, that means honest timelines, real proofs, and no excuses on delivery day.
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.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Air Force units, these three earn their keep.
The boxy 7.5oz cut made for oversized color, front and back. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
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.
No mystery pricing. These are the published packs on our light cotton tee, front print included, and US Air Force Academy units watch the per piece cost fall as quantity climbs.
| Quantity | Pack price | Per shirt | Shipping | Add back print |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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 |
Three add-ons exist and all are flat per piece: the back print at the table rate ($3 from 25 pieces, $2 from 50), the oversized front at $3 or $2 depending on quantity, and extended sizes at $6 or $4. Nothing else gets added. The Design Lab applies every rule automatically, and the written quote confirms the total before anything is charged.
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.
Production waits for one thing only: your written sign-off on the proof. That signature is the contract for exactly what prints.
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.
The specs live in our archive permanently: same art, same colors, same result, on demand.
Count 5 to 7 business days, production included, for tracked delivery to US Air Force Academy and Colorado Springs addresses. APO and FPO addresses ship at the same pace, so deployed elements are covered. At 100 pieces shipping costs nothing; under that, the flat rates in the table are the whole story.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
