Why Custom T-Shirt Orders Are Harder Than They Look
A t-shirt order for a team or company reflects on the whole business. Screen printing, DTF, and embroidery each produce a different finish. The wrong method choice can leave a logo flat or a colour off-brand. Many online printers skip the proof stage, so the first real look comes days before the event.
Merch Express removes that risk. Every order includes a proof for approval before production starts. Our team matches colour to the brand's exact specification and produces every order in-house in Calgary. Nothing ships until the buyer approves the proof.
Turnaround time matters most when an event date is already set. Same-day production is available in-house, so a fixed deadline does not have to mean a rushed result.

Choosing a blank matters as much as the print. Lightweight 4.2 oz fashion tees drape well for retail and merch drops; 5.3 to 6.1 oz heavyweight cotton holds its shape through daily wear and industrial laundering. Performance blends move moisture for sports teams and outdoor crews.
Send us artwork in any format you have. Our art team sets it up, sends back a digital mockup showing exact placement and colours, and nothing goes to press until you sign off.
No Minimum Order
One custom t-shirt and a 500-piece staff run move through the identical production process. No minimum, no penalty pricing on small jobs.
Rush Production
2 to 9 business days on rush t-shirt orders — plus same-day service when a date moves up on you unexpectedly.
Digital Mockup First
Every t-shirt order includes a free digital mockup for approval before anything hits the press. No surprises on delivery day.
Complete Custom T-Shirts Across Canada
Merch Express produces every custom t-shirt in-house at our Calgary facility. We ship to every Canadian province, and every quote request receives a response within 1 hour. DTF printing carries no minimum quantity, so a single sample can be approved and confirmed before a full team order goes to print.

Available Decoration Methods
Decoration Methods
Each method produces a different finish. Match the method to the artwork, the garment, and the run size.
Screen Printing
Produces a durable, opaque finish for bulk orders with 1 to 4 solid ink colours. It suits team uniforms, event shirts, and large corporate runs, where every shirt needs the exact same colour.
DTF (Direct-to-Film) Printing
Reproduces full-colour designs, photographs, and gradients with sharp detail. It works on any order size, including a single sample shirt for approval before a full run.
Embroidery
Stitches logos and text onto collared shirts, polos, and outerwear. Custom embroidery holds up better than printed ink over time and suits executive and client-facing apparel.
No minimum order applies to any style in this collection. A single custom t-shirt and a 500-piece staff run move through the identical production process: submit artwork and quantity, approve the quote and pay, approve the digital mockup, then track status through pickup or delivery.

FAQs
Pricing depends on decoration method, colour count, and order quantity. Request a quote for an exact price on a specific order. Every quote receives a response within 1 hour.
No minimum order applies through DTF printing. This makes it possible to approve a single sample before a full team or company order goes to print. Screen printing and embroidery involve setup costs, so those methods suit higher quantities better.
Standard production takes 10 business days from art approval to completion. Rush production is available in 2 to 9 business days for a 10% fee.
Screen printing pushes ink through a mesh stencil, using one screen per colour. DTF printing transfers a full-colour design from film onto the garment using heat. DTF suits smaller orders and detailed, multi-colour designs better than screen printing does.
Yes, same-day custom t-shirt production is available for eligible orders at Merch Express's Calgary facility. Order size, decoration method, and design complexity all affect same-day eligibility. Contact Merch Express to confirm eligibility for a specific order.
Vector files such as AI, EPS, PDF, or SVG produce the sharpest print results at any size. PNG or JPG files work for DTF printing if the resolution is high enough. Merch Express's design team can also rebuild a logo from a low-resolution file.
Yes, free design support is included on every order. Our design team builds print-ready artwork from a logo, sketch, or text description, and sends a proof for approval before production begins.
Yes, bulk custom t-shirts cost less per shirt as order quantity increases for screen printing and DTF printing. Request a quote for exact pricing on a specific order size.
DTF printing suits small orders best, including a single shirt, since it carries no minimum order and no per-colour setup cost. Screen printing and embroidery become more cost-efficient at higher quantities.
Yes. DTF printing carries no minimum order, so a single sample or small executive order is accepted alongside larger team, event, and company orders.
Yes, Merch Express sends a proof for every order before production begins. Design changes can still be made at the proof stage.

Customer Experiences
Worked with budget promotion to create bucket hats for a bachelor party for 16 guys. They were able to accommodate our custom design onto the hats and they turned out better than expected. Loved the result and would be glad to work with them in the future. Special thanks to Rohan for going above and beyond to have our order ready. Thanks again!

We just had some hats made and Holly was incredible! She really showed care with her service and was quick to respond - you really feel in good hands and like you're speaking with a company that cares, which is hard to come by these days. Will definitely reach back to them for our future needs!
