Sublimation for Charlotte: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Charlotte crews order sublimated gear from us because the numbers are public and the process is simple: free design help, a written proof within 24 hours, and delivery to any Charlotte address in 5 to 7 business days.
With a community of 389 spread over 0.6 square miles, Charlotte 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: Goose Lake, IA (4 mi), Preston, IA (7 mi), Welton, IA (8 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. Rock Island Arsenal, around 35 miles from Charlotte, 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 Charlotte.
Because Goose Lake sits only 4 miles from Charlotte, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
Inside-collar branding for crews building a real merch line. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Seam-to-seam graphics that are part of the fabric, not sitting on it. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Rosters, numbers, and sponsors all print in the same pass at the same price. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Wicking fabric stays wicking, because the dye never blocks the weave. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Whole-garment patterns, from classic camo to unit-designed concepts. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Polyester flags and display textiles in complete color. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Charlotte customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
That standard cuts both ways. If your art needs work or your timeline is impossible, we tell you up front and offer the fix, because a bad shirt with our print on it costs us more than the order.
Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Charlotte customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Budget practice gear: standard tee, sublimated numbers, done. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Sublimated accents with embroidered marks make a hoodie that looks like team store product. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
The widest, boxiest blank we stock, which is exactly what edge-to-edge concepts need. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
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.
Here is what Charlotte 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 pack | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 15 pack | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 20 pack | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| 25 pack | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| 50 pack | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| 100 pack | $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.
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.
Nothing goes to press until you approve the proof in writing. What you sign off on is exactly what prints, that is the whole point of the proof.

Absolutely. Bulk is where pack pricing shines, and big mixed-size runs ship counted against your roster with a single person accountable for the date.
Extended sizes carry a flat per-piece add: $6 when the order is under 25 pieces, $4 once it reaches 25. The estimate in the Design Lab applies it for you.
