Custom shirts, hats, and gear for Hill City crews, printed by a shop that lives for this work and delivered anywhere in South Dakota in 5 to 7 business days.
Crews in Hill City order from us the same way the big-city ones do: published pack pricing, free design help, and a written proof before a single shirt prints.
Hill City is home to a community of 953 across 1.3 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: Keystone, SD (8 mi), Custer, SD (12 mi), Johnson Siding, SD (12 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. Ellsworth Air Force Base, around 20 miles from Hill City, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
The South Dakota military community orders here too: unit and family gear for Ellsworth Air Force Base, plus every recruiter, Guard unit, and veteran org chapter around Hill City.
The workhorse method: thick ink, bulk pricing, hundreds of washes.
Thread instead of ink: caps, polos, and outerwear with permanent texture.
Photograph-grade prints from a 10 piece run up.
All-over color dyed into the fabric, impossible to crack or peel.
13oz vinyl banners and signs sized to be read at distance.
A real designer builds your art before anything prints.
Festival tees, cleanup-day shirts, and volunteer gear for the events that hold a town together. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Group apparel for congregations, mission trips, and food drives at honest pack pricing. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
5K tees, tournament shirts, and memorial fundraiser runs delivered before event day. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
From the dugout to the bleachers: team and booster runs with all sizes priced together. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Field day, clubs, and spirit weeks, all proofed free with pack pricing the treasurer can verify. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Shop shirts and stitched caps that make a small crew read like an established company. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Hill 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.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Hill City customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Big-run economics start here: light ringspun cotton from $12 at volume, with the front print already in the price. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
The default unit shirt: heavy cotton, an 80-color palette, and a fit that survives the wash cycle. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
An 8.0oz fleece crew with a clean uninterrupted front, the best canvas we stock for big crests and old school block lettering. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
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.
Here is what Hill City customers actually pay, starting from our light cotton tee. Every price includes a standard front print, and the number only moves down as the pack gets bigger.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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 |
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.
Kick it off however suits you: describe the concept in the quote form or drop your art straight into the Design Lab. Polish is not required at this stage.
Twenty-four hours gets you a designer-built proof on the exact blank you chose. Iterate freely until it is right.
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.
The timeline to Hill City addresses is fixed and published: 5 to 7 business days door to door, production included. Shipping rates are flat, visible in the table, and free from 100 pieces.
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.
Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Hill City group keep dropping the per piece price from there, and free shipping starts at 100.
File quality is our problem, not yours: vectors are ideal, 300 DPI PNGs work, and weak files get redrawn at no charge.
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.
The standard clock is 5 to 7 business days covering both production and delivery. Many orders can run faster; name the date and we will confirm or decline honestly.
Yes, and it costs nothing with your order. Send a sketch, an old logo, or just the idea, and a designer sends a print ready proof within 24 hours.
