Custom sublimated gear for Coast Guard personnel at Coast Guard Base Alameda, printed by veterans and delivered to base or door in Alameda, California.
Dye bonded into polyester fiber, so it never cracks, peels, or washes out. All-over prints, jerseys, koozies, mugs, and flags. For Coast Guard Base Alameda, that comes with delivery to base or to any Alameda address in 5 to 7 business days.
The Alameda area around the installation holds about 75,000 people, every address of it inside the standard 5 to 7 day window. Orders regularly split between the installation and nearby Oakland, CA (3 mi), Piedmont, CA (6 mi), San Leandro, CA (6 mi), at no difference in price or timeline.
Whether it is a full unit run or a single retirement piece, pricing is published up front, the front decoration is included in every price, and nothing goes to production until your point of contact signs off on the proof in writing.
Between the installation, Alameda, and Oakland just 3 miles away, one sublimation order often serves the unit, the families, and the booster club at once.
Full kits with personalization included, because sublimation prints it all at once. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Moisture-wicking blanks where the print breathes with the fabric. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Custom patterns and camo concepts printed edge to edge. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Full-color polyester flags and displays for events and dedications. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
The retail touches: printed neck labels and interior branding. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Seam-to-seam graphics that are part of the fabric, not sitting on it. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For Coast Guard units, that means honest timelines, real proofs, and no excuses on delivery day.
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 Coast Guard units pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
For all-over concepts, start from the boxiest silhouette we carry. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Practice kits pair sublimated names and numbers with this standard tee to stay on budget. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
The team-store look: sublimation accents plus embroidery on the fleece hoodie. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Finished files are welcome but never required. A faded photo, a hand sketch, or three sentences of description all become professional vector art at no charge, proofed back to you within a day. The revision count is unlimited, the approval is in writing, and production does not move an inch until that approval exists.
Hands-on types can skip the wait entirely: the Design Lab puts your art on the actual garment with the price updating live.
Budget planning for Coast Guard Base Alameda units starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.
| Quantity | Pack price | Per shirt | Shipping | Add back print |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 pieces | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 15 pieces | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 20 pieces | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| 25 pieces | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| 50 pieces | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| 100 pieces | $1200 | $12 ea | FREE | $2 ea |
Options price per piece: back prints at the listed rate (falling to $3 at 25 and $2 at 50), oversized full-body fronts at $3 under 25 pieces or $2 above, and 2XL-plus sizes at $6 under 25 pieces or $4 above. Every heavier garment keeps this same pack shape at its own numbers, and the Design Lab totals it live while you build.
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.
The proof arrives inside a day, drawn at print size on your chosen garment and color. Change anything, as often as needed, at no cost.
You approve in writing before production starts. No surprises at the box opening, because you already saw the shirt.
Approval to doorstep runs 5 to 7 business days as the default, faster when rush is booked and honestly refused when it cannot be.
Art, thread colors, and size history stay archived, so the next season run starts with one email.
The timeline to Coast Guard Base Alameda and Alameda addresses is fixed and published: 5 to 7 business days door to door, production included. APO and FPO addresses ship at the same pace, so deployed elements are covered. Shipping rates are flat, visible in the table, and free from 100 pieces.
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.
Large runs are the core business: hundreds of pieces, mixed sizes, multiple colors, one named contact who owns it from first proof to the delivery scan.
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.
Finality is the nature of custom work: no returns once it prints. Your protections live earlier in the process, in the free proof and the written approval that nothing skips.
Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your unit at Coast Guard Base Alameda keep dropping the per piece price from there, and free shipping starts at 100.
Best case: vector art (AI, SVG, EPS, PDF). Very good case: a 300 DPI transparent PNG. Worst case: a screenshot, which our designers redraw at no charge anyway.
Deployed addresses are first-class here: APO and FPO ship on the standard timeline, right alongside all 50 states.
