Sizing a race order
Registration data is the best roster you will get. Order registered sizes plus a few extra in M and L for race-day sign-ups. Lock the sponsor list before the proof; a sponsor added after the screens are burned is a new $20 screen.
Shipping and timing
Standard turnaround is 28 days from proof approval, then UPS Ground from Yerington, NV: typically 1 to 2 business days to Nevada, California and Oregon and about 5 to the East Coast. We have no office or rep in your city; the price and the proof are the same in every state. Rush is quoted per job.
What to send
- Race logo and one-color sponsor logos
- Registered size counts plus extras
- Cotton or performance
- Race date and ship-to
Questions
Cotton or performance?
Cotton PC61 is cheaper and published at $15.22 front and back at 48 on a dark shirt. ST350 polyester is what runners wear to run; it is quoted per job.
Can we close registration late?
Close sizes about five weeks before race day so the 28-day turnaround and transit fit.
