Apparel Production Times
Once all required approvals have been received, apparel production times are determined based on a series of steps and conditions. Production times officially start after all blank products on the order are in hand. We receive apparel orders daily from our manufacturers warehouses. Most all orders are combined and shipped together in order to waive inbound freight charges.
Orders are sourced from 9 warehouses, each in different states and varying transit times. We always prioritize the Ohio warehouse due to its faster shipping capabilities. However, if an order includes items that require accessing from multiple warehouses, production cannot commence until all items are received in full. This approach ensures that the production process is efficient and that all components of the order are accounted for before work begins.
We allow 1 additional business day from the time all items have been received, in order to do a quality control check for any defect in the garments. At that time the production times officially commence.
Below is the transit time that it takes to receive garment blanks, based on warehouse location and a 1pm EST cut off time.
Cincinnati, Ohio – 1 day transit
Richmond, Virginia – 2 day transit
Minneapolis, MN – 2 day transit
Robinsville, NJ – 2 day transit
Jacksonville, FL – 3 day transit
Dallas, TX – 3 day transit
Reno, NV – 4 day transit
Seattle, WA – 5 day transit
Phoenix, AZ – 6 day transit
If an order needs to be rushed outside of these timeframes, the custom does have the option to pay for expedited inbound shipping. Please note outbound shipping transit times are additional to the production times.
