Contact Carmichael Sports to get your t-shirts done. They are located in Orrville, OH, a big sports town, and have a very good screen-printer in Canton do the work for them. Very good quality and service, and their staff makes sure everything gets done on time. And I love the $12 per shirt idea! I will buy 2, most likely.

Things to consider:
- # of colors printed on front & back (2 colors front, 1 color back = 3 colors)
- Always use 1-color back unless you HAVE to have 2+ colors... just wastes money unnecessarily
- A small print on sleeve is doable, but is considered another "color."
- The size of the print on the front, back, or sleeve doesn't matter. So an upper-left-chest and full-chest design would cost the same assuming they have the same number of colors.
- Think ahead at how many t-shirts you think you can sell, and then some. You don't want to have to call in a separate order for 20 when you could have ordered 400 instead of 350. (The order of 20 will be much, much more expensive)
