    01 / WHY HAYDEN'S

    Not an upload-and-pray website.

    You get a person who answers, checks your artwork, and tells you straight what will print well — before you spend a dollar.

    A1

    Fast turnaround

    Standard orders go out in 8 business days after proof approval. Need it sooner? Rush production runs 2–4 business days — just ask before you order.

    A2

    Straightforward quotes

    Every job gets a written quote with the per-piece cost spelled out before you commit — no surprise fees at pickup.

    A3

    Free mockups & proofs

    Every quote includes a digital mockup on the actual garment color. Nothing gets made until you reply approved.

    A4

    No minimums on most orders

    Need one embroidered polo or a handful of DTF tees? That is a real order here — same care as a fifty-piece run.

    03 / DECORATION METHODS

    Two methods, both done right

    We specialize instead of dabbling. Embroidery and DTF cover nearly every job — tell us the garment and the artwork and we'll recommend which one suits it.

    Embroidery

    M-01

    Embroidery

    Your logo stitched in thread. Sharp, professional, and it never cracks or peels — the standard for polos, hats, jackets, and anything customer-facing.

    Best for
    Polos, caps, quarter-zips, workwear, left-chest marks
    Minimum
    None on most items; digitizing policy to be confirmed
    DTF / Heat Transfer

    M-02

    DTF / Heat Transfer

    Full-color artwork printed onto film and heat-pressed to the garment. Photos, gradients, and unlimited colors with zero setup — soft to the touch and built to survive the wash.

    Best for
    Tees, hoodies, full-color designs, player names & numbers
    Minimum
    None — single pieces welcome

    04 / WORKFLOW

    How it works

    Four steps from we need shirts to boxes on your counter. No account to create, no design tool to fight.

    1. 01

      Send Your Idea

      Fill out the quote form or text us a photo of a napkin sketch. Rough is fine — logo file, quantity, and your deadline is all we need to start.

      INPUT · ARTWORK + QTY + DATE

    2. 02

      Free Digital Mockup

      We size the art, match the garment color, and send a proof with a firm per-piece price. Revisions are free — we'd rather fix it on a screen than on a shirt.

      TURN · USUALLY 1 BUSINESS DAY

    3. 03

      Approve The Proof

      You reply approved, we lock the order, order blanks, and schedule press time. Nothing is made before your sign-off.

      GATE · WRITTEN APPROVAL REQUIRED

    4. 04

      Print & Deliver

      Printed, stitched, counted, and folded. Pick up locally, meet for a drop-off in the area, or we ship it anywhere in the U.S.

    07 / FAQ

    Questions we get every week

    Standard production is 8 business days from the moment you approve your proof. Rush production runs 2–4 business days when the schedule and blank availability allow — ask before ordering so we can confirm your date.

    No. Both embroidery and DTF work at any quantity, so single pieces and small batches are genuinely welcome. Larger runs still earn a better per-piece rate on your quote.

    Vector is ideal: AI, EPS, PDF, or SVG. High-resolution PNG or JPG at 300dpi at final print size works for most jobs. Send whatever you have and we will tell you upfront if it needs work.

    Both. We serve Northeast and Central Ohio with local pickup and area delivery, and ship nationwide at actual carrier cost. Shipping and local delivery details remain to be confirmed.

    Close, but send your Pantone or hex codes with your artwork. Embroidery matches to the nearest available thread and DTF prints in CMYK, so fabric color and material can shift the final result.

    Yes. Sizes mix freely within a style, and multiple garment colors in the same run are usually fine as long as the artwork still reads well on each.
