Sublimation for Merna: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Merna 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 Merna address in 5 to 7 business days.
Merna is home to a community of 348 across 0.5 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Broken Bow, NE (8 mi), Anselmo, NE (11 mi), Callaway, NE (16 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. Offutt Air Force Base, around 201 miles from Merna, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Merna counted against your roster.
Sublimation demand around Merna does not stop at the town line. Crews from Broken Bow (8 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Full kits with personalization included, because sublimation prints it all at once. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Wicking fabric stays wicking, because the dye never blocks the weave. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Custom patterns and camo concepts printed edge to edge. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Full-color polyester flags and displays for events and dedications. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Inside-collar branding for crews building a real merch line. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
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.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Merna customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
The Design Lab puts your art on the real garment, takes your size counts, and totals the whole order, shipping included, without asking who you are.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Merna customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
For all-over concepts, start from the boxiest silhouette we carry. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Practice kits pair sublimated names and numbers with this standard tee to stay on budget. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Mix sublimated panels with stitched marks and this hoodie reads team-store retail. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Every order includes the design team. They rescue low-resolution logos, invent art from plain descriptions, and keep insignia and period typography accurate when the concept demands it. Twenty-four hours after you send the idea, the proof is in your inbox; as many revisions as it takes come free, and your written sign-off is what starts the presses.
Or open the Design Lab and lay the design out yourself, priced in real time on the exact blank.
Budget planning for Merna customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pack of 10 | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 15 | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 20 | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 25 | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| Pack of 50 | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| Pack of 100 | $1200 | $12 ea | FREE | $2 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.
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.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
Delivery to Merna 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.
Included with every order: a designer turns whatever you send into print-ready art, proofs it within 24 hours, and revises free until approved.
Large orders are the specialty, not the exception: hundreds of mixed-size pieces, roster-counted boxes, one accountable contact.
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.
There are no returns on custom orders; once printed, the work is final. That is exactly why production never starts without your written approval of a free proof, and why the size roster deserves a second look before you submit.
Our minimum is 10 pieces. Packs for your Merna crew begin at 10, the per piece price falls as the count climbs, and shipping goes free 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.
