Sublimation for Portland: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Dye bonded into polyester fiber, so it never cracks, peels, or washes out. All-over prints, jerseys, koozies, mugs, and flags. For Portland, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
With about 6,200 people spread over 4.9 square miles, Portland gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Bryant, IN (7 mi), Salamonia, IN (7 mi), Pennville, IN (9 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. For the military community, Grissom Air Reserve Base sits about 61 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Portland.
Because Bryant sits only 7 miles from Portland, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
Performance gear that still performs: the print adds zero weight and zero stiffness. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Custom patterns and camo concepts printed edge to edge. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Full-color polyester flags and displays for events and dedications. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
The retail touches: printed neck labels and interior branding. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Edge-to-edge color dyed into the fabric, so the print can never crack or peel. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Full kits with personalization included, because sublimation prints it all at once. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Portland customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
That standard cuts both ways. If your art needs work or your timeline is impossible, we tell you up front and offer the fix, because a bad shirt with our print on it costs us more than the order.
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.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Portland customers, these three earn their keep.
Budget practice gear: standard tee, sublimated numbers, done. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
The team-store look: sublimation accents plus embroidery on the fleece hoodie. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
The widest, boxiest blank we stock, which is exactly what edge-to-edge concepts need. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
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.
Here is what Portland 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.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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.
Send the idea through the quote form or build it yourself in the Design Lab. A napkin sketch photographed on a phone counts, our designers have built full unit runs from less.
Twenty-four hours gets you a designer-built proof on the exact blank you chose. Iterate freely until it is right.
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.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
The timeline to Portland addresses is fixed and published: 5 to 7 business days door to door, production included. Shipping rates are flat, visible in the table, and free from 100 pieces.
Boxes get counted twice against the roster before they seal, and the tracking number reaches you the day of pickup. Damage or shortage claims are our expense and our rush.
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.
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.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Portland crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
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.
