From single pieces to full crew runs, St. Charles gets embroidered gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Digitized stitching for hats, polos, and jackets. A left-chest logo runs 5,000 to 8,000 stitches and reads professional in any room. For St. Charles, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
St. Charles is home to a community of 643 across 0.6 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. If your people are spread out, that is fine: St. Marys, IA (4 mi), Bevington, IA (5 mi), Patterson, IA (6 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. The closest major installation is Camp Dodge, roughly 28 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
No storefront visit required. Send a rough idea or finished art, a real designer builds the proof at no charge, and the finished gear ships straight to St. Charles.
Embroidery demand around St. Charles does not stop at the town line. Crews from St. Marys (4 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.

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.
