Custom apparel delivered to St. Charles, Iowa in 5 to 7 business days. Low 10 piece minimum, free design help, pack pricing published up front.
Crews in St. Charles order from us the same way the big-city ones do: published pack pricing, free design help, and a written proof before a single shirt prints.
St. Charles is home to a community of 643 across 0.6 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: St. Marys, IA (4 mi), Bevington, IA (5 mi), Patterson, IA (6 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. For the military community, Camp Dodge sits about 28 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
The Iowa military community orders here too: unit and family gear for Camp Dodge, plus every recruiter, Guard unit, and veteran org chapter around St. Charles.
The bulk-run classic: pressed ink, published packs, proven durability.
Stitched logos for hats, polos, and jackets that read professional up close.
No screens, no setup fee: full-color small runs from 10 pieces.
Edge-to-edge jerseys and performance gear with print in the fibers.
13oz vinyl banners and signs sized to be read at distance.
From napkin sketch to print-ready vectors, free with any order.
Race shirts and tournament gear that arrive before the starting gun, guaranteed honestly. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
From the dugout to the bleachers: team and booster runs with all sizes priced together. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Spirit gear for schools where the PTA sees the proof and the price before any form goes home. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Uniform tees, embroidered caps and polos, and workwear that survives the job. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Festival tees, cleanup-day shirts, and volunteer gear for the events that hold a town together. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Mission trip tees and congregation gear at pack rates a committee can approve. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. St. charles customers feel the difference on the first order.
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.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks St. Charles customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
The clean-front fleece crew: 8.0oz, no pocket, no hood, maximum canvas for crests and block letters. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
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. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
The standard. 5.3oz heavy cotton in more than 80 colors including military green, sand, and every heather. Holds shape wash after wash. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Design help is not an upsell here, it is how orders start. Describe the concept in a sentence, attach whatever reference you have, and within 24 hours a real designer returns a proof drawn as clean vectors, era-correct where it matters. Revisions cost nothing and continue until the proof is right, and your written approval is the only thing that sends it to production.
The Design Lab is there when you want to drive: upload, place, and price the design yourself on the exact garment we print.

Three add-ons exist and all are flat per piece: the back print at the table rate ($3 from 25 pieces, $2 from 50), the oversized front at $3 or $2 depending on quantity, and extended sizes at $6 or $4. Nothing else gets added. The Design Lab applies every rule automatically, and the written quote confirms the total before anything is charged.
Send the idea through the quote form or build it yourself in the Design Lab. A napkin sketch photographed on a phone counts, our designers have built full unit runs from less.
Within 24 hours you have a proof in your inbox, drawn to size, on the garment and color you picked. Revisions are unlimited and free.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
