From single pieces to full crew runs, Lihue gets sublimated gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Lihue 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 Lihue address in 5 to 7 business days.
All 7.5 square miles of Lihue sit inside our normal delivery map, tracked door to door. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Hanamaulu, HI (2 mi), Puhi, HI (2 mi), Wailua, HI (6 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. The closest major installation is MCB Hawaii Kaneohe Bay, roughly 108 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Lihue counted against your roster.
A typical week of sublimation orders from this corner of Hawaii mixes Lihue crews with neighbors like Hanamaulu, 2 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Polyester flags and display textiles in complete color. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Neck labels and inner details that make merch look retail. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Edge-to-edge color dyed into the fabric, so the print can never crack or peel. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Full kits with personalization included, because sublimation prints it all at once. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Moisture-wicking blanks where the print breathes with the fabric. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Whole-garment patterns, from classic camo to unit-designed concepts. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Lihue customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
Honesty runs in both directions here. A doomed timeline or a design that will disappoint gets called out early, with an alternative attached.
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.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Lihue customers, these three earn their keep.
Practice kits pair sublimated names and numbers with this standard tee to stay on budget. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
The team-store look: sublimation accents plus embroidery on the fleece hoodie. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
All-over designs want the boxiest canvas in the lineup, and this is it. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
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 Lihue 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.
| 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 |
Three add-ons exist and all are flat per piece: the back print at the table rate ($3 from 25 pieces, $2 from 50), the oversized front at $3 or $2 depending on quantity, and extended sizes at $6 or $4. Nothing else gets added. The Design Lab applies every rule automatically, and the written quote confirms the total before anything is charged.
Two doors in: the quote form if you want a person on it immediately, or the Design Lab if you want to see it on the garment first. Either way, unfinished ideas are the expected input.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
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.
Five to seven business days covers printing and delivery. Tight timeline? Rush gets a truthful quote, not a hopeful one.
Art, thread colors, and size history stay archived, so the next season run starts with one email.
Every order ships tracked to Lihue addresses with standard production plus shipping at 5 to 7 business days. Free shipping kicks in at 100 pieces, and pack shipping rates below that are published, not surprises at checkout.
Before sealing, every carton is counted against the size roster, and tracking goes out the same day. Anything short or damaged gets replaced at our cost on an expedited timeline.
Yes, and it costs nothing with your order. Send a sketch, an old logo, or just the idea, and a designer sends a print ready proof within 24 hours.
Yes. Runs in the hundreds of pieces with mixed sizes and colors are our normal work, managed by one point of contact from proof to delivery.
Sizes 2XL and up add $6 per piece under 25 total pieces, or $4 per piece at 25 or more. The Design Lab includes it in your estimate automatically.
Due to custom orders, all work is finalized and no returns are accepted. Double check sizing and artwork before submitting your order. Every order gets a free proof first, and nothing prints until you approve it in writing.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Lihue 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.
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.
