Custom screen printed gear for Walnut 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 Walnut, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Walnut at about 1,300 people on 0.8 square miles of Illinois, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Deer Grove, IL (6 mi), Ohio, IL (7 mi), New Bedford, IL (7 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. For the military community, Rock Island Arsenal sits about 52 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 Walnut.
Screen Printing demand around Walnut does not stop at the town line. Crews from Deer Grove (6 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Event shirts priced before the first form is printed, so selling at a profit is arithmetic, not hope. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Youth smalls through adult 5XL in a single pack at a single rate. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Era-correct designs drawn by our in-house team and printed for every generation of the crew. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
When the count is high and the budget is fixed, light blanks and one-color prints deliver. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
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. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For Walnut customers, that means honest timelines, real proofs, and no excuses on delivery day.
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 Walnut customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
For big front art, nothing beats this 8.0oz crew with its uninterrupted printing field. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
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. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Eighty-plus colors of 5.3oz heavy cotton, from military green to every heather, that keeps its shape through the laundry years. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
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.
Budget planning for Walnut customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.
