Why order here?
A timeline you can plan around
Standard is 7-12 business days door to door. Rush is 5 business days door to door. Put the event date in the order notes and we plan around it.
Sponsors on the back
$1 more per shirt for a back print, at any quantity. Any number of ink colors on the sponsor block is included in that price; there is no per-color charge. A sponsor block costs a fraction of what the sponsors paid.
Sizes for people you have not met
Use 10 S, 30 M, 30 L, 20 XL and 10 2XL per 100 and add a few spares in M and L. Both tees run XS to 2XL, all adult unisex. No youth sizes yet.
How do people use it?
Five common orders, the garment we would pick for each, and the price per shirt at that quantity with print and setup included. Every number comes from the same price table as checkout, and every order is at least 30 shirts.

For events: questions people ask
How far ahead should I order event shirts?
+
Three weeks is comfortable. Standard is 7-12 business days door to door after you approve the proof, which arrives within 24 hours. Under two weeks, pick rush (5 business days door to door).
How do I pick sizes when I do not know who is coming?
+
For 100 adults use 10 S, 30 M, 30 L, 20 XL and 10 2XL. Go a size up for a general crowd, a size down for a run club. Order a few extra. All sizes are adult unisex; there are no youth sizes yet, and an adult XS fits many older kids.
What if some sizes run short?
+
Order spares now: about 10 percent extra in M, L and XL. A top-up later is a reorder from your saved design, which is its own order with the same 30 shirt minimum and the same turnaround as a new order. Spares in the first order are the cheaper insurance.
Can I put sponsor logos on the back?
+
Yes. Upload the sponsor block as one image on the back. It adds $1 a shirt at any quantity. Ask sponsors for high-resolution logos.
Can volunteers get a different color than attendees?
+
Yes. Add the same design as a second item, change the shirt color and set its own sizes. Everything ships together and counts toward one order.
What does rush cost and how fast is it?
+
Rush is 5 business days door to door. It costs a percentage of the subtotal, shown before you pay. Worth it when the date is fixed.
What if the shirts arrive late or damaged?
+
Turnaround is an estimate, not a guarantee, so put the event date in the order notes and choose rush if it is close. If we see we cannot make a rush date, we tell you before printing and refund the rush fee. Damaged or misprinted shirts are reprinted or refunded; email a photo within 14 days.
