Custom T-Shirts

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the difference between screen printing and digital printing?

  Screen printing is the traditional method of t-shirt printing where mesh screen stencils are used to print each color in your design individually. Screen printing is more cost effective for large order quantities or custom t-shirt designs with fewer colors and requires an order minimum of 12 pieces. Digital printing, on the other hand, uses large inkjet printers, much like your at-home desktop printer, to print all the colors in your design directly onto your t-shirt. This t-shirt printing method is best suited for orders with lots of colors or small quantities like even a single custom printed t-shirt. Check out our in-depth comparison of the two print methods for more details.

• How do I get started designing my own t-shirts?

  You can get started either by first selecting an apparel option from our catalog, using one of our t-shirt design templates, or begin with a blank canvas by jumping right into the Design Studio. Whichever path you take, you still have the flexibility to change apparel styles and colors, design using our artist-crafted clip art and templates, and even upload your own image to make a design that’s exactly what you’re looking for. When you’re ready, head to the checkout where you’ll choose sizes, quantities, and the print method that’s best for you. More details about how everything works can also be found in our help center and always feel free to contact us.

You can check out our video on how to find the right product for more details.

• How is the cost of my order calculated?

  The first factor used to calculate the cost of your order is the type of apparel and color you choose. These range from cost effective to premium and depend on the style and material. Second is the number of print locations. You have the option to design on the front and back, but, you can also keep costs to a minimum by just sticking to one location. If you select screen printing as the print method for your order, we also take into account the number of colors in your design and also apply bulk discounts for higher quantity orders. There’s a quote calculator on every apparel product page and we have a few money saving tips to make sure you get the best price possible.

• When will I receive my custom t-shirt order?

  If you select digital printing as the print method for your order, the processing time is just 1-2 business days before being shipped with the delivery option you select at checkout. Standard screen printed orders are processed for 5-7 days before being shipped, but we offer a range of rush delivery options to make sure you can get your order on time.
