From single pieces to full crew runs, Forest City gets sublimated gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Dye bonded into polyester fiber, so it never cracks, peels, or washes out. All-over prints, jerseys, koozies, mugs, and flags. For Forest City, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
With about 4,300 people spread over 4.6 square miles, Forest City gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Miller, IA (5 mi), Leland, IA (5 mi), Hayfield, IA (6 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. For the military community, Camp Dodge sits about 108 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 Forest City.
Sublimation demand around Forest City does not stop at the town line. Crews from Miller (5 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Seam-to-seam graphics that are part of the fabric, not sitting on it. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Numbers, names, and sponsor logos in one process, one price. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Moisture-wicking blanks where the print breathes with the fabric. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Whole-garment patterns, from classic camo to unit-designed concepts. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
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.
Inside-collar branding for crews building a real merch line. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Forest city customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
It also means we say no when we should. If a design will not print well at the size you want, or a date cannot be hit, you hear it before you spend money, not after.
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 Forest City 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. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
The team-store look: sublimation accents plus embroidery on the fleece hoodie. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
For all-over concepts, start from the boxiest silhouette we carry. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Half the orders we take begin as a phone photo of a sketch, an old shirt, or a sentence describing the idea. A designer turns that into print-ready vector art at no charge, sends the proof inside 24 hours, and revises it until you sign off in writing. Nothing is produced before that signature, which is why what shows up matches what you expected.

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.
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.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
Five to seven business days covers printing and delivery. Tight timeline? Rush gets a truthful quote, not a hopeful one.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
Production plus shipping to Forest City 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.
Every box leaves counted, tracked, and matched to your roster. Shortages and shipping damage are on us to fix, fast, because delivery day is the only day the customer remembers.
We do, at the same pace as domestic orders. Deployed and overseas service members at APO and FPO addresses are covered alongside all 50 states.
That is the point of the Design Lab: the complete number, packs, back prints, size upcharges, shipping, updates live while you design, before any contact form.
Standard production plus shipping takes 5 to 7 business days. Rush options are available on many orders, tell us your date and we answer honestly.
Always, at no charge. A designer takes your rough input, redraws it print ready, and has a proof in your inbox inside a day, with unlimited revisions after.
Large orders are the specialty, not the exception: hundreds of mixed-size pieces, roster-counted boxes, one accountable contact.
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.
