The merch table is one of the biggest revenue sources at a gig. And for smaller brands, it’s often the difference between breaking even and paying out of pocket for gas, rehearsal space, or recording costs. The challenge is figuring out what people will actually buy. It’s easy to get excited about embroidered jackets, custom […]

If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve already done some research on blank apparel and narrowed your options down to Comfort Colors and Gildan.

Gildan, on the other hand, has built its reputation on dependable quality, broad availability, and

If you are about to place a custom shirt order and wondering whether the print will still look good a year from now, the honest answer is: it depends entirely on the quality of the print and how you care for it.   A well-made screen print on a quality garment can hold up for 50

I’m a big fan of creating custom gear for special events and everyday wear… but I’m not a big fan of waiting forever for it to arrive. Call me impatient, but I’d like to be able to submit a design and then wear it in days, not weeks. So I recently spent some serious time

Ordering employee shirts sounds like a simple feat. But all too often, what started as a great mock-up turns into a disappointing print. Even if the first batch arrives fine, the second order might come in a slightly different shade, have thicker print, or be inconsistently sized. Now you’re explaining to your team why half
