Custom screen printed gear for Carp Lake businesses, schools, teams, churches, and crews. Proofs in 24 hours, delivered in 5 to 7 days.
The workhorse method: vibrant plastisol or water-based ink pressed through mesh, one color at a time. Best price per shirt at volume and prints that survive hundreds of washes. For Carp Lake, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
From one end of Carp Lake to the other, 2.1 square miles, the shipping promise does not change: 5 to 7 business days, tracked. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Levering, MI (5 mi), Mackinaw City, MI (6 mi), Pellston, MI (10 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Camp Grayling, roughly 72 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Carp Lake.
A typical week of screen printing orders from this corner of Michigan mixes Carp Lake crews with neighbors like Levering, 5 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
High-count, budget-tier blanks with a clean one-color print that keeps cost per piece low. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Formation-wide runs are the bread and butter: single design, mixed sizes, pack rates that reward volume. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Everyday workwear printed to survive the job site, the shop floor, and the industrial washer. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Event shirts priced before the first form is printed, so selling at a profit is arithmetic, not hope. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Mixed youth and adult sizes in one run at one pack price. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Reunion gear that gets the year right, drawn in-house and printed for every generation at once. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Carp lake customers feel the difference on the first order.
Honesty runs in both directions here. A doomed timeline or a design that will disappoint gets called out early, with an alternative attached.
Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Carp Lake customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Eighty-plus colors of 5.3oz heavy cotton, from military green to every heather, that keeps its shape through the laundry years. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
For big front art, nothing beats this 8.0oz crew with its uninterrupted printing field. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Big-run economics start here: light ringspun cotton from $12 at volume, with the front print already in the price. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
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.
Prefer hands-on? Build the design yourself in the Design Lab on real product photos, with the running price on screen while you work.
