T-ShirtVeterans
From single pieces to full crew runs, Carson gets screen printed gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
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 Carson, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Carson is home to a community of 766 across 0.7 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Macedonia, IA (3 mi), Oakland, IA (5 mi), Henderson, IA (7 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. Offutt Air Force Base, around 26 miles from Carson, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Carson counted against your roster.
Screen Printing demand around Carson does not stop at the town line. Crews from Macedonia (3 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
High-count, budget-tier blanks with a clean one-color print that keeps cost per piece low. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Formation-wide runs are the bread and butter: single design, mixed sizes, pack rates that reward volume. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Everyday workwear printed to survive the job site, the shop floor, and the industrial washer. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Event shirts priced before the first form is printed, so selling at a profit is arithmetic, not hope. 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. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
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.
This shop exists for the military community, and it shows in how orders run. Deadlines are treated like formation times, proofs are honest instead of optimistic, and when Carson customers call, a person who owns the order answers.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
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 Carson customers, these three earn their keep.
Eighty-plus colors of 5.3oz heavy cotton, from military green to every heather, that keeps its shape through the laundry years. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
An 8.0oz fleece crew with a clean uninterrupted front, the best canvas we stock for big crests and old school block lettering. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
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 gap between what you have and what a press needs is our designers job to close, free with any order. Whatever the starting point, the output is the same: clean vectors, correct insignia, a proof within 24 hours, and unlimited revisions until you approve it in writing. Only then does anything print.
The Design Lab offers the self-serve path, with your art positioned on real product photos and the total priced as you go.
No mystery pricing. These are the published packs on our light cotton tee, front print included, and Carson customers watch the per piece cost fall as quantity climbs.

Two doors in: the quote form if you want a person on it immediately, or the Design Lab if you want to see it on the garment first. Either way, unfinished ideas are the expected input.

You approve in writing before production starts. No surprises at the box opening, because you already saw the shirt.

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.
Custom work does not come back: due to custom orders, all work is finalized and no returns are accepted. The protection is up front instead, a free proof that must be approved in writing before anything prints, so check sizing and art carefully at that stage.
Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Carson crew keep dropping the per piece price from there, and free shipping starts at 100.
