A typical first run is 2,500 units of a core Apex or Forge style at about $9.50 a unit, roughly $23,750 total, with design and development included. Unit pricing improves as your program grows. Pricing is FOB Laredo, TX, so shipping to Laredo is included in the unit price. See the full breakdown.
The sky’s the limit. We do screen printing, embroidery, appliqués, transfers and multimedia applications, plus an extensive range of specialty and novelty wash and dye treatments. If you can picture it, we can usually make it, and our design team will help you get there.
Yes. Our tees are pre-shrunk, so you should not see significant shrinkage after washing.
Our core styles come in three weights:
• Apex: 150 GSM (4.3 oz), 30s combed ring-spun cotton, classic fit
• Forge: 200 GSM (6 oz), 20s combed ring-spun cotton, boxy fit
• Nomad Fleece Hoodie: 270 GSM (8 oz) midweight fleece
Apex is a soft, everyday tee. Forge is heavier and more structured. See all spec sheets.

Our factory in Lerma, Mexico sits much closer to U.S. customers than overseas production. Shorter transit is what makes our 30-, 60- and 90-day timelines possible, and our CTPAT certification helps your goods move through U.S. Customs smoothly.
It depends on your artwork, fabric and quantities. We offer screen printing, embroidery, appliqués, transfers and specialty applications, and our team recommends the method that will look best and hold up wash after wash.
Piece-dyed fabric is dyed before it is cut and sewn, which gives you consistent, even color. Garment dyeing colors the finished piece, which creates a softer, lived-in look with natural variation. Our finishing team can recommend the right wash or dye treatment for the look you want.
Our production is Sedex SMETA audited and CTPAT certified. We source Better Cotton (BCI), track sustainability through the Higg Index, test inputs against our restricted substances list (PFAS-free), and inspect every order to AQL 2.5.
No. We focus on knits: tees, long sleeves and fleece. That focus is how we keep quality high and pricing competitive.
Merch is usually a logo printed on an off-the-shelf blank. A brand apparel program is product developed to your specs, from fabric and fit to graphics, labels and packaging, and made to sell at retail. That is what we build.
