Custom shirts, hats, and gear for Valdez crews, printed by a shop that lives for this work and delivered anywhere in Alaska in 5 to 7 business days.
Valdez does not need a local print shop to get local-quality gear. Design online, approve a free proof from a real designer within 24 hours, and delivery lands at any Valdez address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Valdez at about 3,800 people on 212.9 square miles of Alaska, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Tatitlek, AK (18 mi), Cordova, AK (44 mi), Tonsina, AK (51 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, roughly 99 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
The Alaska military community orders here too: unit and family gear for Fort Wainwright and Fort Greely, plus every recruiter, Guard unit, and veteran org chapter around Valdez.
The workhorse method: thick ink, bulk pricing, hundreds of washes.
Stitched logos for hats, polos, and jackets that read professional up close.
Photograph-grade prints from a 10 piece run up.
The all-over method: dye becomes part of the polyester itself.
13oz vinyl banners and signs sized to be read at distance.
A real designer builds your art before anything prints.
League jerseys and fan gear where kid and parent sizes share one pack price. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
PTA runs, field day tees, and club shirts proofed free and priced by the pack before the order form goes home. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Workwear for local crews: printed tees, embroidered polos, gear that outlasts the season. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
The civic calendar runs on volunteers, and volunteers run better in matching shirts. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Service group shirts, from food drives to youth retreats, priced openly by the pack. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Race shirts and tournament gear that arrive before the starting gun, guaranteed honestly. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Valdez customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
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.
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.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Valdez customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
The standard. 5.3oz heavy cotton in more than 80 colors including military green, sand, and every heather. Holds shape wash after wash. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
The clean-front fleece crew: 8.0oz, no pocket, no hood, maximum canvas for crests and block letters. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
The budget workhorse for big runs. 4.5oz light ringspun cotton that keeps a 100 piece order affordable, from $12 a shirt at volume with the front print included. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Most orders here start without finished artwork, and that is fine. Our in-house designers redraw low resolution logos as clean vectors, build new designs from a written description, and match era-correct type and insignia when the design calls for it. The service costs nothing with an order, the first proof lands within 24 hours, and revisions are unlimited. You approve the final art in writing before production, so the shirt that arrives is the shirt you signed off on.
Want to try it yourself first? The Design Lab lets you upload art, add text in stencil and athletic fonts, and position everything on the exact garment with live pricing the whole time.
Budget planning for Valdez customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.
| Pieces | Total | Each | Ship | Back print add |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 pieces | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 15 pieces | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 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.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
From approval, count 5 to 7 business days to your door. If the event is sooner, ask about rush and get a straight yes or no.
Art, thread colors, and size history stay archived, so the next season run starts with one email.
Delivery to Valdez 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.
The roster is the packing list: every size counted into the box, tracking issued at pickup, and any shortage or transit damage made right at our cost without argument.
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.
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.
Completely. Build the design in the Design Lab and the full order total sits on screen the whole time; no email, no call, no waiting.
Standard production plus shipping takes 5 to 7 business days. Rush options are available on many orders, tell us your date and we answer honestly.
Always, at no charge. A designer takes your rough input, redraws it print ready, and has a proof in your inbox inside a day, with unlimited revisions after.
Large runs are the core business: hundreds of pieces, mixed sizes, multiple colors, one named contact who owns it from first proof to the delivery scan.
Extended sizes carry a flat per-piece add: $6 when the order is under 25 pieces, $4 once it reaches 25. The estimate in the Design Lab applies it for you.
