Custom and Contract Apparel:

5 Order Essentials

Providing these 5 essentials from the start ensures the quickest and most efficient turn around time. Clients who provide these 5 essentials naturally gain higher priority because we can move their orders into our production line with minimal back-and-forth between our teams.

We always welcome a good conversation, but the more time our project managers spend asking for the details of your order, the more time it’ll take to get it on a press.

  • Teckpack Checklist:

    • Mockups (provide additional views as necessary)

      • Preview of each style on desired garments

      • Placement callouts: dimension + point of reference

    • Individual art files per placement

      • Art dimensions (e.g. 15” W x 10” H)

      • Optimal Resolution: 300 dpi

      • Recommended Art File Types: PSD, AI, PDF, PNG

    • Highly recommended: Pantone callouts

    • For quick turnarounds, it’s imperative that we receive final artwork

      • (rather than designs in development that require external approval)

    • We do not allow “designing on press” during full production runs

      • As an alternative, we offer pre-production sampling :) Learn more
