Screen Printing for Herald: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Herald 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 Herald address in 5 to 7 business days.
From one end of Herald to the other, 7.9 square miles, the shipping promise does not change: 5 to 7 business days, tracked. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Galt, CA (4 mi), Clay, CA (4 mi), Collierville, CA (6 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. For the military community, Travis Air Force Base sits about 44 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Herald.
Screen Printing demand around Herald does not stop at the town line. Crews from Galt (4 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Everyday workwear printed to survive the job site, the shop floor, and the industrial washer. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Runs, festivals, and booster fundraisers with published pricing so the margin math is done before the order form goes out. 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. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Era-correct designs drawn by our in-house team and printed for every generation of the crew. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
When the count is high and the budget is fixed, light blanks and one-color prints deliver. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
The whole roster in one run, one design, with the per-piece price falling at every pack break. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Herald customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
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.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Herald customers pick most, all designable online on real product 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. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
For big front art, nothing beats this 8.0oz crew with its uninterrupted printing field. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
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.
No mystery pricing. These are the published packs on our light cotton tee, front print included, and Herald customers watch the per piece cost fall as quantity climbs.
| 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.
The first step is just getting the idea out of your head: type it into the quote form or mock it up in the Design Lab, rough edges and all.
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.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
