Branded Apparel

Branded Apparel That Your Team Actually Wants to Wear.

T-shirts, polos, hoodies, sweaters, jackets, hats — sourced and decorated with your logo, sized and styled for your team.

Bad Branded Apparel Lives in a Drawer.

You've seen the staff t-shirt nobody wears — the wrong cut, the cheap fabric, the logo placed weird. It cost real money and nobody puts it on.

Good branded apparel — the right brand, the right fit, the right print — gets worn at work, on weekends, at the kid's hockey game. That's the kind we make.

Screen Printing — Best for:

  • Larger quantities (20+)
  • Multi-colour logos
  • T-shirts, hoodies, casual apparel

DTF (Direct-To-Film) — Best for:

  • Smaller runs of shirts and hoodies
  • Full-colour logos with gradients or fine detail
  • Cotton, polyester, and blends
  • No setup charge for each colour

Embroidery — Best for:

  • Small to medium designs (chest logos, hat fronts)
  • Polos, hats, sweaters, jackets
  • Premium look and feel
  • Lasts longer through washes

Why You Don't Want to Order Apparel Online

Online apparel printers don't ask if your logo will hold up after 50 washes. They don't tell you that the shirt runs small. They don't fix the file when your logo is too low-resolution. And when 12 of 30 shirts come back the wrong size, you're stuck.

We do all of that. Local. Before you place the order.

Common Questions About Apparel

What's the minimum order?

For screen printing, usually 12 pieces. For embroidery and DTF, we have a minimum of 6. We'll let you know up front based on the items you choose.

What is DTF (Direct-to-Film), and how is it different from screen printing?

DTF is a full-colour digital print. Your design is printed onto a special film, then heat-pressed onto the garment. There are no screens to set up, so it's a great fit for smaller orders and detailed, multi-colour artwork.

DTF is usually the better choice when:

  1. You need a smaller run of shirts or hoodies
  2. Your logo has lots of colours, gradients, or fine detail
  3. You're printing on cotton, polyester, or blends

Screen printing is usually the better choice when:

  1. You're ordering larger quantities — usually 20 or more
  2. Your design uses just a few solid colours
  3. You want the lowest price per shirt on a big run

Not sure which one fits? Tell us your design and quantity, and we'll recommend the right method.

How long does apparel take?

10–12 business days from approval is standard. Rush options available on some items.

Can you mix sizes in one order?

Yes — we can include all of the sizes that you require. Larger sizes sometimes have an upcharge depending on the brand.

Will my logo look the same on every shirt?

Yes. We proof and check colour, placement, and registration before production runs.

I have my own apparel. Can you print on it?

Unfortunately we are unable to decorate customer-supplied items. We have the experience with our products and know how to make your logo look its best on them. Plus, if we ruin one or two, it's on us to replace them.
