Custom screen printed gear for Alpena businesses, schools, teams, churches, and crews. Proofs in 24 hours, delivered in 5 to 7 days.
Alpena crews order screen printed 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 Alpena address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Alpena at about 10,000 people on 8.2 square miles of Michigan, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Ossineke, MI (11 mi), Presque Isle Harbor, MI (17 mi), Posen, MI (18 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. The closest major installation is Camp Grayling, roughly 68 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Alpena counted against your roster.
Screen Printing demand around Alpena does not stop at the town line. Crews from Ossineke (11 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
The whole roster in one run, one design, with the per-piece price falling at every pack break. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Crew tees built for daily abuse: heavy blanks, cured ink, and reorders that match exactly. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Runs, festivals, and booster fundraisers with published pricing so the margin math is done before the order form goes out. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
One run covers the team and the bleachers: kid sizes and adult sizes priced together. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Reunion gear that gets the year right, drawn in-house and printed for every generation at once. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
High-count, budget-tier blanks with a clean one-color print that keeps cost per piece low. 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. Alpena customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
Honesty runs in both directions here. A doomed timeline or a design that will disappoint gets called out early, with an alternative attached.
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 Alpena customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
The budget workhorse for big runs. 4.5oz light ringspun cotton that keeps a 100 piece order affordable, from $12 a shirt at volume with the front print included. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
The default unit shirt: heavy cotton, an 80-color palette, and a fit that survives the wash cycle. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
For big front art, nothing beats this 8.0oz crew with its uninterrupted printing field. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
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.
Budget planning for Alpena customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.

Start in the Design Lab on the exact garment we print, or send whatever you have through the quote form. Rough ideas are welcome, that is what the free design service is for.
Within 24 hours you have a proof in your inbox, drawn to size, on the garment and color you picked. Revisions are unlimited and free.
Production waits for one thing only: your written sign-off on the proof. That signature is the contract for exactly what prints.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.

Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Alpena crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
