T-ShirtVeterans
Custom sublimated gear for Banner Elk businesses, schools, teams, churches, and crews. Proofs in 24 hours, delivered in 5 to 7 days.
Dye bonded into polyester fiber, so it never cracks, peels, or washes out. All-over prints, jerseys, koozies, mugs, and flags. For Banner Elk, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Banner Elk at about 1,100 people on 1.9 square miles of North Carolina, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Sugar Mountain, NC (2 mi), Seven Devils, NC (3 mi), Beech Mountain, NC (4 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. For the military community, Fort Jackson sits about 156 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 Banner Elk.
A typical week of sublimation orders from this corner of North Carolina mixes Banner Elk crews with neighbors like Sugar Mountain, 2 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Inside-collar branding for crews building a real merch line. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Seam-to-seam graphics that are part of the fabric, not sitting on it. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Rosters, numbers, and sponsors all print in the same pass at the same price. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Performance gear that still performs: the print adds zero weight and zero stiffness. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Whole-garment patterns, from classic camo to unit-designed concepts. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Dedication flags and display pieces printed in full color on polyester. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Banner elk 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.
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.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Banner Elk customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Practice kits pair sublimated names and numbers with this standard tee to stay on budget. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
The team-store look: sublimation accents plus embroidery on the fleece hoodie. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
For all-over concepts, start from the boxiest silhouette we carry. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
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.
The table below is the actual price list Banner Elk customers order from, light cotton tee, front print included, no asterisks.
| Pieces | Total | Each | Ship | Back print add |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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 |
Beyond the table, the only extras are per-piece and public: back prints at the listed rate stepping down to $3 then $2, oversized fronts at $3 dropping to $2, and 2XL-plus at $6 dropping to $4. The Design Lab does this arithmetic for you in real time.
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.
A real designer, not an algorithm, sends your proof within 24 hours. You change it as many times as it takes to be right.
You approve in writing before production starts. No surprises at the box opening, because you already saw the shirt.
Five to seven business days covers printing and delivery. Tight timeline? Rush gets a truthful quote, not a hopeful one.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Production plus shipping to Banner Elk addresses runs 5 to 7 business days standard, tracked the whole way. Shipping is free at 100 pieces and flat rated below that, exactly as shown in the pricing table above.
The roster is the packing list: every size counted into the box, tracking issued at pickup, and any shortage or transit damage made right at our cost without argument.
Simple math: 2XL and up cost $6 more per piece on small orders and $4 more per piece from 25 pieces. No other size fees exist, and the Design Lab totals it live.
Custom work does not come back: due to custom orders, all work is finalized and no returns are accepted. The protection is up front instead, a free proof that must be approved in writing before anything prints, so check sizing and art carefully at that stage.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Banner Elk crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
File quality is our problem, not yours: vectors are ideal, 300 DPI PNGs work, and weak files get redrawn at no charge.
Yes. We ship to all 50 states and to APO and FPO addresses for deployed and overseas service members.
Yes, and without giving up your email: the Design Lab keeps the complete total, packs to shipping, on screen while you design.
