Plan your print placements

A front graphic, a back print and sleeve details create different production requirements. Send each design with its intended location and approximate size. If you are comparing options, ask for the placements to be reviewed together so you can make an informed choice for your budget.

Match the method to the design

Screen printing is an option for coordinated apparel runs. Detailed or full-colour designs may suit DTF printing, depending on the garment and order. Share the artwork and quantity so we can review the appropriate method for your project.

Send a useful merch brief

Include your band name, artwork, garment styles and colours, total quantities, size breakdown, print locations, required in-hand date and pickup or delivery preference. If you are still developing the design, describe what you need help with.

From band artwork to a finished merch run

1. Send the full brief

List each garment, colour, size and print location, plus your required arrival date. Screen printing generally starts at 24 pieces; DTF is available for single items.

2. Review and approve

Check the proof and quote before production. Confirm the artwork, placements and size breakdown. Payment follows proof approval and is due before production unless approved account terms apply.

3. Plan collection or delivery

Your quote confirms the production schedule. Allow separately for shipping, and check rush availability before announcing a release date. Wait for your ready notification before Burnaby pickup.

Keep the merch budget clear

Compare the complete decorated order, including garments, print locations, applicable setup, tax and delivery. Catalogue garment prices alone do not describe the final merch cost.

For a first run, ask for a quote on your core garment and preferred print placement. If you are considering a second location, request that option separately so you can see how it changes the total before committing.
