From single pieces to full crew runs, Melvindale 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 Melvindale, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Melvindale at about 12,000 people on 2.7 square miles of Michigan, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Allen Park, MI (2 mi), Lincoln Park, MI (2 mi), Dearborn, MI (3 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. For the military community, Selfridge Air National Guard Base sits about 27 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 Melvindale.
A typical week of sublimation orders from this corner of Michigan mixes Melvindale crews with neighbors like Allen Park, 2 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
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.
Full kits with personalization included, because sublimation prints it all at once. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Wicking fabric stays wicking, because the dye never blocks the weave. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Full-bleed patterns, including unit-specific camo concepts, across the entire garment. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Dedication flags and display pieces printed in full color on polyester. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
The retail touches: printed neck labels and interior branding. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For Melvindale customers, that means honest timelines, real proofs, and no excuses on delivery day.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Melvindale customers, these three earn their keep.
The widest, boxiest blank we stock, which is exactly what edge-to-edge concepts need. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Practice kits pair sublimated names and numbers with this standard tee to stay on budget. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
The team-store look: sublimation accents plus embroidery on the fleece hoodie. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
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.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure Melvindale customers see.

Every heavier garment keeps this same pack shape at its own numbers, and the Design Lab totals it live while you build.
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.
You approve in writing before production starts. No surprises at the box opening, because you already saw the shirt.
Five to seven business days covers printing and delivery. Tight timeline? Rush gets a truthful quote, not a hopeful one.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Delivery to Melvindale addresses follows one simple clock: 5 to 7 business days including production, with tracking from the moment it leaves. Hit 100 pieces and the shipping line drops to zero.
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.
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.
Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Melvindale crew keep dropping the per piece price from there, and free shipping starts at 100.
Send whatever exists. Vectors print perfectly, high resolution PNGs print clean, and anything below that gets redrawn free by the design team before it goes near a press.
Deployed addresses are first-class here: APO and FPO ship on the standard timeline, right alongside all 50 states.
Yes, and without giving up your email: the Design Lab keeps the complete total, packs to shipping, on screen while you design.
Count 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, production included. Tighter date? Ask about rush and you get a straight answer before paying.
Included with every order: a designer turns whatever you send into print-ready art, proofs it within 24 hours, and revises free until approved.
