Custom graphic t-shirts are one of the most versatile pieces of custom apparel you can order. Whether you need shirts for a fundraiser, a company outing, a school event, or just a personal design you have been sitting on, a printed tee is a practical and affordable way to put your artwork in front of people. This collection covers a broad range of t-shirt styles, from standard short-sleeve crew necks to heavier-weight options built for longer wear. For customers who also want matching fleece, browse the custom sweatshirts collection for crewnecks and hoodies that can be coordinated with your tee order.
Berks Imprints serves corporate clients, schools, youth organizations, fire companies, EMS agencies, sports teams, and individual customers across Berks County and the surrounding region. Whatever the occasion, a well-printed shirt carries your message and holds up through repeated washes.
Decoration Options for Custom T-Shirts
The right decoration method depends on your artwork, your order size, and how the finished shirt will be used. Screen printing is the standard choice for larger runs with bold, solid-color designs. It produces durable, vibrant prints that wash well and look sharp at scale. DTF (direct-to-film) printing is well-suited for full-color artwork, photographic graphics, and smaller quantities where setting up a screen print run would not be practical. Both methods are available through this collection, and the best fit for your order will be confirmed during the quoting process. If your project also calls for embroidered headwear, the custom hats collection can be ordered alongside your shirts for a coordinated look.
Common Order Types
- Event and fundraiser shirts: Walk-a-thons, 5Ks, community events, and benefit runs. Single design, one or two colors, ordered by the dozen.
- Company and team apparel: Staff shirts, volunteer crew shirts, and group outings where everyone wears the same design.
- School and class shirts: Field day shirts, senior class tees, club shirts, and spirit wear using school spirit apparel designs or custom artwork you provide.
- Personal and small-run orders: Individual designs, memorial shirts, family reunion shirts, and small-quantity runs that do not fit typical warehouse minimums.
- Seasonal and promotional shirts: Seasonal campaigns, grand opening shirts, and limited-run promotional pieces tied to a specific date or theme.
T-Shirts and Related Custom Apparel Collections
T-shirts are often just one part of a larger apparel order. Customers ordering shirts for fall events or cooler-weather outings frequently add matching pieces from the fall apparel collection, which includes long-sleeve tees, lightweight jackets, and layering options. For a complete look across shirt styles, the custom t-shirts collection expands on specific styles and fits. Hats, bags, and other accessories can round out any apparel program whether you are outfitting a team, a department, or a promotional campaign.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum order quantity for custom t-shirts?
Minimums vary depending on the decoration method and the complexity of your design. Reach out for a quote and we will find the right fit for your order size.
Can I order just one shirt?
Single-shirt and very small-run orders are possible depending on the design and method. DTF printing in particular handles low quantities well. Contact us with your design details and we can give you accurate options.
What file formats work best for artwork submission?
Vector files (AI, EPS, PDF with outlined fonts) produce the cleanest results. High-resolution PNG and TIFF files also work in most cases. If you only have a low-resolution image, let us know and we will advise on whether it can be used or needs to be recreated.
Do you offer youth and women's cut shirts?
Yes. This collection includes a range of fits and sizes beyond standard unisex styles. Check individual product listings for available sizing, or contact us if you need a specific fit not shown.
Can I mix sizes within a single order?
Yes. Most orders can accommodate a size breakdown across the same design and color. Provide your size breakdown when requesting a quote and it will be confirmed in your order details.
Do you also print other types of apparel?
Yes. Beyond t-shirts, Berks Imprints handles a wide range of decorated apparel including sweatshirts, hoodies, polos, and outerwear. If you are looking to build out a full uniform or spirit wear program, the school spirit apparel collection is a good starting point for coordinated sets.
How long does production take?
Standard turnaround is 7 to 10 business days after artwork approval. Rush production is available when needed. Timeline starts once your proof is approved, not when the order is placed.
