From single pieces to full crew runs, Kistler 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 Kistler, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
With a community of 285 spread over 0.3 square miles, Kistler gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Allenport, PA (1 mi), Mount Union, PA (1 mi), Cedar Crest, PA (2 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. For the military community, Letterkenny Army Depot sits about 33 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
No storefront visit required. Send a rough idea or finished art, a real designer builds the proof at no charge, and the finished gear ships straight to Kistler.
Screen Printing demand around Kistler does not stop at the town line. Crews from Allenport (1 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Anniversary shirts with the type and insignia matched to the era they honor. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
When the count is high and the budget is fixed, light blanks and one-color prints deliver. 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. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Uniform shirts that still look issued after a season of job-site laundry cycles. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Fundraiser tees where the committee knows its margin up front, because every pack price is public. 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.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Kistler customers feel the difference on the first order.
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.
The Design Lab puts your art on the real garment, takes your size counts, and totals the whole order, shipping included, without asking who you are.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Kistler 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. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
An 8.0oz fleece crew with a clean uninterrupted front, the best canvas we stock for big crests and old school block lettering. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
When the count is high, this 4.5oz ringspun blank keeps the math friendly: $12 a shirt at volume, front print included. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Finished files are welcome but never required. A faded photo, a hand sketch, or three sentences of description all become professional vector art at no charge, proofed back to you within a day. The revision count is unlimited, the approval is in writing, and production does not move an inch until that approval exists.
Hands-on types can skip the wait entirely: the Design Lab puts your art on the actual garment with the price updating live.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure Kistler customers see.

Delivery to Kistler addresses follows one simple clock: 5 to 7 business days including production, with tracking from the moment it leaves. Hit 100 pieces and the shipping line drops to zero.
Before sealing, every carton is counted against the size roster, and tracking goes out the same day. Anything short or damaged gets replaced at our cost on an expedited timeline.

That is the point of the Design Lab: the complete number, packs, back prints, size upcharges, shipping, updates live while you design, before any contact form.
Five to seven business days, all in, from approval to arrival. Rush exists for real deadlines and gets an honest yes or no up front.
Design help is included free. Whatever you have, a napkin sketch, a faded shirt photo, a sentence, becomes a print-ready proof from a real designer within 24 hours.
Large orders are the specialty, not the exception: hundreds of mixed-size pieces, roster-counted boxes, one accountable contact.
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.
