From 25 pieces, a design in flat colours on a light shirt can come out cheaper with screen printing. The studio checks this for you and uses whichever method gives the lower price, so you always see one all-in number. On a dark shirt under 100 pieces, screen printing counts one extra colour for the white base layer. Full-colour artwork, photos and gradients print with DTF at any quantity. Browse t-shirts.

Print sizes
Most designs are Standard or Large. On orders under 50, any print up to 12" x 14" is included; on bigger orders, up to 10" x 10" is included. Here is what each size adds per piece on a Gildan 5000 tee:
| Print size | Good for | 1 to 49 pieces | 50 pieces and more |
|---|---|---|---|
| Logo, up to 5" x 5" | Polos, staff shirts, a logo on the front with a big back print | Included | Included, and a lower small-logo price from 25 pieces |
| Standard, up to 10" x 10" | Most front and back designs | Included | Included |
| Large, up to 12" x 14" | Big front graphics | Included | A small amount per piece, never more per piece than at 25 |
| Oversize, up to 14" x 16" | Full backs, event and merch shirts | +$1 to $1.50 | A small amount per piece, never more per piece than at 25 |
Oversize, 14" x 16", one front print, all-in per Gildan 5000 tee: $21.13 for one, $16.63 at 12, $15.63 at 25, 50 and 100, $15.10 at 150 and $14.60 at 250. The studio shows the exact price for your size before you pay. Women's, youth and toddler garments have smaller maximum print sizes to fit the garment. See print sizes and prices.
How quantity tiers work
The price per piece drops at 6, 12, 25, 50, 100, 150 and 250 pieces, and again at 500 and 1,000 for screen printing and small logos. More pieces never cost more per piece. Every piece of the same design counts toward one tier, across all sizes, colours and garments in that design (for example, 20 tees and 10 hoodies with the same logo price at the 25 to 49 tier). If you are close to a tier, check the next one up: 25 shirts cost $353.25 in total, only about $20 more than 22 shirts ($332.86).
What changes the price
- Quantity: more pieces, lower price per piece.
- Number of print locations: each extra location adds to the price, and the second costs less than the first.
- Print size: a large front print is included. Under 50 pieces, even the biggest print (14" x 16") adds just $1 to $1.50; from 50 pieces, big prints add a small amount, always shown before you pay. See print sizes.
- The garment: premium, heavyweight and specialty blanks cost more. Some colours and larger sizes (2XL and up) cost a little more too.
- Method: DTF for full colour at any quantity, screen printing from 25 pieces when it is cheaper, embroidery by quote.
- Your date: if you need it sooner than standard, see rush printing.
How the price is built
For anyone who likes to see the maths: every all-in price above is the blank garment plus a print rate per location. A Gildan 5000 tee starts at $4.13, a Gildan 18500 hoodie at $17.62 and a Gildan 8800 DryBlend polo at $9.91. The DTF first print is $16 for 1 to 5 pieces and drops to $5 at 250+. The full print rate tables are on the DTF printing page, and the cost guide explains what moves a quote.
Embroidery
Embroidery gives your logo a stitched, premium finish on polos, caps, jackets and hoodies. It is priced by stitch count and quantity, usually from 6 pieces, with a one-time $35 digitizing fee per design, charged once per design, not per garment. Send your logo and quantity and we confirm the price before you commit. See embroidery.

Pricing FAQ
Is there a setup fee?
No. There is no setup fee on DTF or screen printing; screen setup is built into the per-piece price. The only one-time fee is the $35 digitizing fee on embroidery, once per design.
Is HST included?
No. All prices are in CAD before tax. HST is added at checkout.
Is there a minimum order?
No. You can order one printed shirt for $20.13. Screen printing starts at 25 pieces and embroidery usually at 6.
Why do bigger orders cost less per shirt?
The print rate drops at each quantity tier, so 50 tees are $12.63 each and 250 are $9.13 each, compared with $20.13 for one.
Do different colours of the same shirt count together?
Yes. Every piece of the same design counts toward one tier, across all sizes, colours and garments in that design (for example, 20 tees and 10 hoodies with the same logo price at the 25 to 49 tier).
Do 2XL and bigger sizes cost more?
Usually a little, because the blank costs more in larger sizes and in some colours. The design studio shows the exact price for each size before you order.
