Find apparel for your Long Beach group
Local merchandise with a relaxed feel
For an artist, café or neighborhood brand, compare the garment-dyed Comfort Colors 1717 with the regular-fit AS Colour 5001. First, decide how substantial you want the shirt to feel. Then check the measurements and the space your graphic needs.
Event and volunteer crew shirts
A shared logo helps guests recognize your crew. Compare the Gildan 8000 cotton/polyester blend for repeat wear, and use a clear size list for every shift. A chest logo and a large back graphic are separate print locations.
Outdoor groups and evening layers
For active events, the Sport-Tek ST100 offers moisture-wicking polyester. For a cooler gathering, consider the SF500 fleece hoodie. Select the garment for the activity, then confirm that the artwork suits its fabric.
From choosing a shirt to wearing your design
1. Choose your apparel
First, open a product to review colors, fabric and measurements. Use its size chart to collect the sizes and quantities your group needs.
2. Add your artwork
Next, select Create Design or Upload Design on the product page. Add your logo or graphic and choose an available decoration location.
3. Review the details
Then check spelling, colors, placement and quantities. Review the configured price, and confirm any required event date with our team.
4. Order and collect
Finally, review your cart and checkout details. Arrange pickup or shipping, and wait for confirmation that the order is ready before traveling.
Plan a Long Beach event or merchandise order
Separate staff shirts, participant shirts and merchandise into clear groups. Each may need a different fit or graphic. Keep one list of style numbers, colors, sizes and quantities so the order is easy to review.
Next, choose a design that works at the intended print size. A small chest mark and a large festival graphic use different amounts of space. If you are making merchandise, check a garment’s chest and length measurements before choosing the fit.
Finally, work backward from the event or release date. Tell us whether the shirts will ship to Long Beach or be collected in San Fernando. Confirm production and delivery timing before announcing that the apparel will be ready.
Plan a shared look, then confirm each style, color and size.
Choose how to customize your apparel
Your garment, artwork and quantity guide the decoration method. These library photos show printing and embroidery examples.
Screen printing for a shared design
Use screen printing for a logo or graphic repeated across a group order. Quantity, ink colors and print locations affect setup and pricing. Our published minimum is 12 pieces; confirm how it applies to your garment and design combination.
DTF for detailed artwork
DTF transfers printed artwork onto compatible apparel using heat. Share the garment, color and print dimensions so we can review the setup. Request a price for the finished apparel, including application.
Embroidery for staff apparel
Add a stitched logo to suitable polos, hats or other apparel. Fine lettering and small details may need adjustment for thread. Send your logo and placement so we can confirm digitizing, garment suitability and pricing.

Long Beach custom shirt printing questions
Which shirt should I choose for local merchandise?
Start with the feel you want people to keep wearing. The 6.1 oz. Comfort Colors 1717 is relaxed and garment-dyed, while the 5.3 oz. AS Colour 5001 has a regular midweight fit. For lighter jersey, compare the 4.2 oz. BELLA + CANVAS 3001. Measure a favorite tee before selecting your blank.
Can one event order include staff tees and hoodies?
Send separate quantities for each garment, color and size. The same artwork may need different dimensions or a different setup on a hoodie. We can review the complete list and quote the decoration for each style before you order.
How much does custom shirt printing cost?
The garment, quantity, sizes, artwork and decoration locations affect your total. First, compare products using the same design and quantities. Then review the configured price or request a bulk quote. Starting blank-garment prices are not finished printed-shirt prices; check decoration, tax and shipping in the total.
What is the minimum order?
Our published screen-printing minimum is 12 pieces. Confirm the setup for your chosen garments and design. For DTF or embroidery, ask for the requirements and price of the finished decorated apparel.
Can you print a detailed, multicolor design?
Ask about DTF for your artwork and chosen garment. Our team will review the fabric, color, print size and placement. Because application is part of a finished shirt, request the complete decorated-apparel price rather than a transfer-only price.
What artwork should I send?
Send the original design, intended dimensions and decoration locations. Check spelling and use artwork you have permission to reproduce. If the file needs preparation, we can discuss the next step and any charges before production.
Can I get a rush order in Long Beach?
Rush and same-day work are available only when our team confirms capacity for your order. Share the garment, quantity, artwork and exact in-hand deadline before ordering. Also confirm pickup or shipping; transit time is separate from production.
Where do I pick up my order?
Our physical pickup shop is in San Fernando at 701 N Maclay Ave, San Fernando, CA 91340. Arrange pickup with our team and wait for a ready confirmation. If you prefer shipping to Long Beach, provide the full delivery address and deadline.
Can I supply my own garments?
Contact us first with the garment style, fabric, color and quantity. We will review suitability for the requested decoration and explain the applicable garment policy and pricing before you bring anything in.
How do I request help with an order?
Use the form below for product selection, bulk pricing or a specialized request. Include your quantity, artwork and required date. We respond within one business day to discuss the next steps; submitting a quote request does not place or pay for an order.
