Your Vision, Pressed Into Fabric

Most shops print shirts. We bring designs to life. Every project that comes through our doors gets the full attention of artists who actually care about the work, because we started as artists ourselves. That means your colors hit harder, your details stay sharp, and your merch becomes something people actually want to wear.

Whether you need 25 tees for a album drop or 5,000 uniforms for a national crew, the quality never dips. Birmingham trusts us with their brands for a reason: we treat every single print like it has our name on it. Because it does.

"Incredible quality. I used them for my business uniforms and have been through years of washing and abuse. The prints aren't cracked or faded. It's like they're part of the shirt. Andrew is really knowledgeable and is really easy to work with. Great customer service."

BEFORE YOU ASK

What file format do you need for artwork?

We work with AI, PSD, PDF, PNG, and high-resolution JPG files. Vector files (AI or PDF) give the best results. If you only have a rough sketch or idea, no problem. We'll work with you to get it print-ready.

Do you offer rush orders?

Yes. If you're working against a deadline, let us know when you submit your quote request and we'll do our best to make it happen. Rush fees may apply depending on the timeline and order size.

What brands of blanks do you carry?

We work with Bella+Canvas, Next Level, Gildan, Comfort Colors, Independent Trading Co., and more. If you have a specific brand or style in mind, just let us know.

Can I supply my own garments?

Absolutely. If you have blanks you'd like us to print on, just ship them to us or drop them off. We'll let you know if there are any concerns with printability.

Do you ship orders?

Yes, we ship anywhere in the US. Local pickup in Birmingham is also available. Shipping costs are calculated based on order size and destination.

What's your minimum order?

25 pieces for designs with 3 or fewer ink colors. 50 pieces for 4+ color designs. No exceptions on minimums, but we keep pricing competitive to make it worth it.
