How do I create a custom collection?
Simply complete the application process first. Upon getting approval from the Brands Unlimited team, we will help you select your preferred garment or product. The next step is then creating your custom design. We have in house design team that can assist you with this process! Once your design is created and your garment has been selected, you can decide where you want the design to live on your t-shirt, sweatshirt or other types of apparel.
How much does it cost to make a custom t-shirt?
The cost of a custom printed shirt depends primarily on 4 things:
- What kind of garment you are ordering
- How many garments you're ordering
- How many locations you want to print on
- How many colors are printed on each location

What's the difference between Screen printing and Digital Printing?
Screen printing involves creating a stencil, known as a screen, and then using that screen to apply ink on the printing surface (in our case, apparel or promotional products). Each individual color is applied using a different screen, one at a time, combined to achieve the final look. The more colors a design has, the more screens that are needed, and the more setup time required.
The ink in screen printing is applied thicker than digital printing, which results in brighter colors - even on darker shirts. Screen printing is the best option for designs that require a high level of vibrancy, specialty products, or for quantities greater than 6 pieces. While Brands Unlimited has no minimums for screen printing, price is usually a prohibitive factor under 6 pieces. Over 6 pieces, the per piece cost tends to be less than Digital printing (but not always).
Digital printing is a much newer process that involves your artwork being processed by a computer, and then printed directly onto the surface of your product. Digital printing is not a transfer - the ink is directly adhered to the fabric of your shirt. The fact that the design is processed and printed digitally allows for a quantity of one, since there are no screens or physical setup.
Digital printing is best used for items that require large amounts of detail and/or print colors, customers that require water based ink, and for orders of a smaller quantity (5 or less pieces). The fact that the digital printer does not use screens allows for a photographic print, with much more detail than traditional screen printing. As the ink is applied thinner (to achieve such detail), digital printing is best used on lighter colored shirts to allow the design to shine through.
What format should I submit my artwork in?
We can handle any file type, but we prefer Adobe Illustrator files. If submitting a raster file (.psd, .jpg, .gif), we prefer high resolution. The higher the DPI (dots per inch) the better.
What brands do you carry?
We carry over 50 of the top brands in apparel and products. This includes Bella Canvas, Comfort Colors, Gildan, Nike, Under Armour, Champion, Carhartt, Hanes, Alternative Apparel, and Next Level Apparel, among many more!
