Why Choose US vs. Local Printer vs. Stock Supplier
Not every order needs a full manufacturer. Here’s when each option actually makes sense – including when it’s not us.
| Criterion | Local Printer | Stock Supplier | Us |
| What they do | Decorates blank garments from a wholesaler | Sells catalogue jerseys, decorated to order | Manufactures to your design, cut, sizing and labels |
| Best for | Under 10 pieces, tight 2-3 day deadline | A catalogue jersey you need fast, in stock sizes | Fully custom kits, one look across a whole league, private-label brands |
| Minimum order | Often just 1 piece | Set by the catalogue | From 10 pieces per design |
| Cut & sizing | Fixed to the blank | Fixed to the brand’s chart | Built to your chart – player, goalie, youth grading |
| Design freedom | Limited to what fits the blank | Limited to catalogue styles | Fully custom – colors, cuts, fabric |
| Private label | No | No | Yes, including bilingual tags |
| Landed cost clarity | Local pricing, no import complexity | Local pricing, no import complexity | One delivered price – duty and tax included |

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes — game jerseys, goalie-cut jerseys, practice jerseys and matching socks, sublimated to your design with tackle-twill or sublimated crests and numbers. Youth and adult sizes are graded from your own chart, starting at 10 pieces per design.
No — your quote is a single delivered price with Canadian duty and import taxes already included, so the courier hands over your order without a separate bill or brokerage fee.
Yes. Size, care and hang tags are printed to whatever artwork you supply, including bilingual layouts. Confirming the wording meets Canadian labelling requirements is your responsibility (or your importer of record’s) — we print exactly what you send.
Production takes 10–12 days after you approve the design, and delivery to anywhere in Canada takes another 10–12 days — so budget roughly three to four weeks from sign-off to your door.
A stock jersey is cheaper per piece but limited to catalogue colours, cuts and sizing. A fully custom jersey costs more but gives you your own colours, cut, roster names and private-label tags — worth it once you’re outfitting a full team or league rather than a handful of players.
Yes — express production is available for teams on a tighter deadline. Reach out with your date and we’ll confirm whether it’s doable before you commit.
