Imprint Size

The imprint size will be noted on the design mockup. Customer specified print sizes must meet our imprint guidelines (SP) (E). Designs will be sized for the smallest sized garment within an order.

Minimums Orders

Our minimum order is 5 for embroidered and no minimum screen printed garments that get the same imprint design, imprint location and imprint color scheme. We will only mix like style and color garments. Ex: 6 short sleeve t-shirts and 6 long sleeve t-shirts. Light and dark colored garments often cannot be mixed for print runs. Please inquire beforehand if you are unsure whether or not garment colors or styles can be combined for orders. Adult and youth sized garments may not be combined unless the same size imprint is used. These minimums apply to promotional imprinted apparel only. Our other promotional products minimum orders vary per vendor and product.
