We have capabilities to make anywhere from 1 shirt or hat to thousands of apparel items. Some decorating processes are better than others, depending on design and quantity. Minimum charge is just $75 per design.
Groups that benefit from decorated apparel
Decorating with Direct-To-Film heat applied graphics is great for very small projects. Usually we recommend orders of 24 pieces or more. But pricing tends to be better with at least 48 pieces of the same imprint. There are many occasions when you can create very custom headwear at just 144 pieces.
To make life easier for you, we have access to an enormous selection of well-known apparel. For more successful projects, it's in your best interest to have us provide both the garment and the decoration. We provide custom quotes on every project.
Decorating Options
Select and Review Products available from the recommended apparel manufacturers links shown below. If you cannot find an acceptable item from one of these, please contact us for assistance.
Many options are available but may not be shown on this website. We are happy to research and recommend other products. We do have access to quite a few brand-name apparel items as well. However, we do not carry, nor decorate, all retail products (such as Kohl’s, Target, Macy’s or JC Penney).

Determine the type of decoration
Embroidery; Screen Print; Sparkle; Fabric Laser Engraving; Patches
In all decoration situations, not all colors of embroidery thread and screen print ink are available. We work closely with you to find solutions for your custom needs.
Send us production-ready art for your imprint. If you do not have that, Image Marketing can help you develop it. The art creation fee will be listed as a separate line item in the project estimate.
All decoration requires a conversion from computer-generated art to production/decoration-ready art. This setup fee will be described and priced in the project estimate.
Contact Image Marketing to begin the process
We will gather all your information and provide you with an estimate of pricing before we begin the project.
All projects must be approved in writing.
We will send a link for secure online pre-payment.
2024 Note:
Even though conditions have improved over the past 3 years, please be prepared to consider substitutions for product.
Embroidery: Production is currently 3 weeks
Screen Print: Currently running approximately 15-18 business days
Other Decorating Processes: Will be determined and quoted during the estimating process
We highly recommend that you budget at least 6 weeks for all the steps in your new project. Repeat orders can have a shorter production time. Because there are fluctuations depending on daily demand, Image Marketing will provide a more accurate timeframe during the estimating process.
At this time we are not able to give generic price estimates
Please do contact us to narrow your criteria and we will help you make the best decision for your project.
All orders and projects require prepayment
In most cases, orders for branded merchandise will be shipped directly to your location
You may pay by credit card or check. We will send you an Invoice or Payment Request by email. If there is a balance owed due to situations such as a slight overage of product, shipping being higher than estimated or when design work takes longer than estimated, the same procedure will be used.
