From single pieces to full crew runs, Mitchell 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 Mitchell, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
From one end of Mitchell to the other, 0.6 square miles, the shipping promise does not change: 5 to 7 business days, tracked. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Pontoon Beach, IL (3 mi), Granite City, IL (3 mi), South Roxana, IL (3 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. Scott Air Force Base, around 18 miles from Mitchell, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
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 Mitchell.
Because Pontoon Beach sits only 3 miles from Mitchell, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
High-count, budget-tier blanks with a clean one-color print that keeps cost per piece low. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
The whole roster in one run, one design, with the per-piece price falling at every pack break. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Uniform shirts that still look issued after a season of job-site laundry cycles. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Fundraiser tees where the committee knows its margin up front, because every pack price is public. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
One run covers the team and the bleachers: kid sizes and adult sizes priced together. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Era-correct designs drawn by our in-house team and printed for every generation of the crew. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Mitchell customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
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.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Mitchell customers, these three earn their keep.
The default unit shirt: heavy cotton, an 80-color palette, and a fit that survives the wash cycle. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
The clean-front fleece crew: 8.0oz, no pocket, no hood, maximum canvas for crests and block letters. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Big-run economics start here: light ringspun cotton from $12 at volume, with the front print already in the price. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
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.
Here is what Mitchell customers actually pay, starting from our light cotton tee. Every price includes a standard front print, and the number only moves down as the pack gets bigger.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pack of 10 | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 15 | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 20 | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 25 | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| Pack of 50 | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| Pack of 100 | $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.
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.
A real designer, not an algorithm, sends your proof within 24 hours. You change it as many times as it takes to be right.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Every order ships tracked to Mitchell addresses with standard production plus shipping at 5 to 7 business days. Free shipping kicks in at 100 pieces, and pack shipping rates below that are published, not surprises at checkout.
Boxes get counted twice against the roster before they seal, and the tracking number reaches you the day of pickup. Damage or shortage claims are our expense and our rush.
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.
Standard production plus shipping takes 5 to 7 business days. Rush options are available on many orders, tell us your date and we answer honestly.
Always, at no charge. A designer takes your rough input, redraws it print ready, and has a proof in your inbox inside a day, with unlimited revisions after.
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.
Sizes 2XL and up add $6 per piece under 25 total pieces, or $4 per piece at 25 or more. The Design Lab includes it in your estimate automatically.
There are no returns on custom orders; once printed, the work is final. That is exactly why production never starts without your written approval of a free proof, and why the size roster deserves a second look before you submit.
