FAQs
I need a dozen t-shirts for my business - how does this work?
Just bring your idea or design to our Oakland store, and we’ll talk about what you’re looking for and discuss timing and budget. We know it's hard to imagine what your design will actually look like on a t-shirt, so we can make a single transfer and print it on the t-shirt brand and color of your choice - which you can then take a look at in person, on FaceTime or a Zoom call. Once you give us the thumbs up, we’ll get your t-shirts printed and ready for pick-up in around 5–7 business days.
What’s the minimum for screen printed t-shirts?
Just 25 shirts to get started, with a typical turnaround time of 7–10 business days.
What's a Direct-To-Film Transfer?
A direct-to-film (DTF) transfer is a heat-transfer process that involves printing a design onto a film and then transferring onto a t-shirt using a heat press. Extremely versatile, DTF can print on cotton, polyester, blends, nylon, denim, leather, and some hard surfaces like wood. DTF has been around since the early 2000s but really started to be a popular process around 2020. On average DTF prints can last for 50 washes.
How do you determine the final price of a t-shirt order?
It comes down to a couple of factors: size of the design, cost of the blank t-shirt, and how much ink will be needed to produce your particular design and t-shirt. The larger the size and the more ink a design uses, the more our local printing company charges us for each print.
What other t-shirt brands do you carry?
Besides brands we normally carry: American Apparel, Gildan, Comfort Colors, Bella+Canvas, depending on availability from our supplier, we can also source other brands such as Hanes, LAT, Next Level, and JERZEES.
What other types of apparel do you carry?
Huge variety: hoodies, sweatshirts, sweatpants, tank tops, and many more types of apparel. Our main supplier of apparel is S&S Activewear. Please visit their website to view their large assortment of apparel items.
How about caps with patches?
We've been doing caps with patches since 2012. We can work with your design or logo to get it on a patch and cap. We have access to a huge assortment of cap brands and styles. Our main supplier of caps is S&S Activewear. Please visit their website to view their large assortment of cap brands. We recently added Otto Cap to our hat selection as well.
I have an idea for a t-shirt design that I sketched out. Can you translate my sketch to a design that will work on a t-shirt or hoodie?
For sure! We are staffed by experienced designers (Wes, Megdeluxe's owner is a former Apple designer) that can help you out. We charge $50 an hour - one hour minimum.
What do you mean by editing a digital design?
Some designs need to be optimized for printing onto apparel. We achieve this via an image editor (like Photoshop or Illustrator) to achieve quality results.
What is meant by upscaling a digital design?
A design in a digital format must be large enough so that a transfer will print clearly onto a t-shirt. Your designer can provide you with a large format design that will work on a t-shirt. If you have any questions about sizing or file formats, we can help with that for $25, or we'd be happy to communicate this with you designer if you like.
I'm under a tight deadline. Can you do a rush order?
Using DTF transfers, and if we have stock on hand, we can work with you if you're under a time crunch. Minimum rush order is $200.
What file types do you accept?
A PDF file containing vector art is preferred and will yield the best result. Allowed file types: pdf, jpg, jpeg, png, .tif, .tiff, .ai, psd, svg.
