Sublimation for Tarkio: 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 Tarkio, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Tarkio at about 1,500 people on 1.4 square miles of Missouri, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Westboro, MO (7 mi), Fairfax, MO (7 mi), Rock Port, MO (8 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. Offutt Air Force Base, around 57 miles from Tarkio, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Tarkio.
Sublimation demand around Tarkio does not stop at the town line. Crews from Westboro (7 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Dedication flags and display pieces printed in full color on polyester. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
The retail touches: printed neck labels and interior branding. 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. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
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.
Performance gear that still performs: the print adds zero weight and zero stiffness. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Whole-garment patterns, from classic camo to unit-designed concepts. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Tarkio customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
Part of the job is refusing bad orders. When the art, the garment, or the date is wrong, saying so before you pay is the service.
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 Tarkio customers, these three earn their keep.
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.
The widest, boxiest blank we stock, which is exactly what edge-to-edge concepts need. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Names and numbers pair with a standard tee for practice gear that does not break the budget. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
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 Tarkio 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.

Every heavier garment keeps this same pack shape at its own numbers, and the Design Lab totals it live while you build.
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.

Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Tarkio crew keep dropping the per piece price from there, and free shipping starts at 100.
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.
