Custom Order Guidelines

All artwork must be submitted as complete print-ready digital files and should conform to the specifications found below: 

  • All digital images should be high resolution files of 300 DPI or higher.
  • Images must be submitted in one of the following formats: .JPG, .PSD (Adobe Photoshop), .EPS, .AI (Adobe Illustrator) or .PDF (Adobe Acrobat).
  • Each point of sublimation (front or back of hat/shirt) must be submitted as one image file, sized exactly as it is to be printed on the product. For example- all sponsor logos for the back of a shirt must be sized and arranged exactly as you would like them to appear and submitted as a single image.
  • Artwork PMS colors should be submitted with artwork.

Proofs

  • Once an image is received, a proof (sublimated or embroidered swatch) will be created to the customer’s specifications (size, placement and color information must be provided).
  • A photograph will be sent to the customer for approval.
  • If requested, the proof can be mailed to the Customer (this will add additional days to the production time).
  • Proofs that are not approved for failing to meet the customer’s original specifications will be redone at no extra charge.
  • Changes or additions to the images by the Customer that require additional proofs will be charged at 50% of the graphic set up fee ($25 for sublimation and $50 for embroidery) per additional proof. 
  • Any time art must be created or modifications must be made (color changes, logo arrangement, image changes, or image/text editing), art services will be billed at $120.00 per hour, with a one hour minimum.
  • Once artwork is approved, payment will be charged in full.
