Wear Your Brand With Pride
Apparel turns your team and supporters into walking ambassadors. A staff shirt makes employees easy to identify and helps customers feel confident about who they are talking to. A team jersey builds pride and unity. An event T-shirt becomes a keepsake people wear long after the day is over, spreading your name every time it leaves the drawer. Few forms of marketing are as personal or as long-lasting.
Hilson Ink creates custom T-shirts and branded apparel for businesses, organizations, sports teams, schools, churches, family reunions, and events. We help you choose garments, colors, and print placement, prepare your artwork for apparel, and deliver finished pieces your group will actually want to wear.

Planning your order
What to Decide Before Ordering Shirts
A smooth apparel order starts with a few decisions: garment type, colors, print locations, size breakdown, and deadline. Front-and-back designs, sleeve prints, and names or numbers can add personality. Collecting sizes early from your group prevents last-minute changes. If you are ordering for an event, build in extra time for design approval and production.

Artwork That Looks Great on Apparel
Designing for apparel is different from designing for paper. Fabric color affects how ink looks, so a design on a dark shirt may need adjustments compared to a white shirt. Very fine lines and tiny text can be lost on fabric. Bold, simplified artwork usually reproduces best. The size of the print should also suit the garment — a full-back design reads differently than a small left-chest logo.
Our graphic design team can prepare your logo for apparel, create a new event or team design, or adapt artwork from your signs and printed materials. You will see a mockup proof before production.
