Sublimation for Chidester: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Dye bonded into polyester fiber, so it never cracks, peels, or washes out. All-over prints, jerseys, koozies, mugs, and flags. For Chidester, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
With a community of 242 spread over 5.3 square miles, Chidester 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: Reader, AR (6 mi), Bluff City, AR (6 mi), Whelen Springs, AR (11 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. Barksdale Air Force Base, around 89 miles from Chidester, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Chidester.
A typical week of sublimation orders from this corner of Arkansas mixes Chidester crews with neighbors like Reader, 6 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Custom patterns and camo concepts printed edge to edge. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Full-color polyester flags and displays for events and dedications. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Inside-collar branding for crews building a real merch line. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Jerseys with full-bleed color that survives because it is dye, not ink. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Full kits with personalization included, because sublimation prints it all at once. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Moisture-wicking blanks where the print breathes with the fabric. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Chidester customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
Part of the job is refusing bad orders. When the art, the garment, or the date is wrong, saying so before you pay is the service.
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.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Chidester customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
All-over designs want the boxiest canvas in the lineup, and this is it. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Names and numbers pair with a standard tee for practice gear that does not break the budget. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Sublimated accents with embroidered marks make a hoodie that looks like team store product. 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.
Budget planning for Chidester customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.

| Pack of 10 | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 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.
Kick it off however suits you: describe the concept in the quote form or drop your art straight into the Design Lab. Polish is not required at this stage.
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.
