Question 1

How much do custom t-shirts cost?

Accepted Answer

Custom screen printed t-shirt pricing depends on the product, quantity, print locations, and artwork colors. Choose a product and configure the design to see your all-in unit price; repeat orders can reuse saved artwork for a faster checkout.

Question 2

What is the minimum order for custom t-shirts?

Accepted Answer

Minimum quantities depend on the product and decoration method. Choose a product to see its available sizes and order requirements, or contact us for help with samples and smaller orders.

Question 3

What is the difference between screen printing and embroidery?

Accepted Answer

Screen printing applies ink to fabric — best for t-shirts, hoodies, and large orders with bold, flat-color designs (1–6 colors). Embroidery stitches thread into the garment — best for polos, hats, jackets, and items where a premium, textured look is needed. DTF printing works for full-color designs on any fabric.
