Small runs and staff shirts (12 to 47 pieces)
No hard minimum, and an honest answer on what is cheapest
Under 48 shirts, screens make each shirt expensive. We will tell you whether a short screen run, left-chest embroidery ($6.00 per piece at 12 to 47) or a DTF transfer is the cheapest way to get your logo on 20 staff shirts.
Test runs before a big merch order
A dozen DTF tees to see what sells, then 96 screen printed once you know. Both from the same art file.
