What we do
Custom Apparel Services in Jacksonville, NC
Screen printing, embroidery, headwear, uniforms and promotional products — all handled under one roof on Plaza Drive since 1999.
Most customers arrive knowing what they want the shirt to say and not much else. That is fine — choosing between printing and embroidery, and picking a garment that suits how it will actually be used, is the part we do for you.
The short version: screen printing for volume and bold colour, embroidery for polos, jackets and small runs, and cap embroidery because almost nobody else around here will take it on. Tell us the job and we will point you at the right one, even when it is the smaller sale.

Decorating methods
Two main ways to get your logo onto a garment. The right one depends on quantity, the garment itself and how hard it is going to be worn.
- Custom screen printing — best value in volume, bold multi-colour designs, tees and hoodies
- Custom embroidery — stitched not printed, works on small runs, the professional look for polos and jackets
- Embroidered caps and hats — trucker caps, beanies and visors, one of the few local shops that does this properly
What we put it on
From a dozen shirts for a club to a district-wide run, across the full garment catalogue.
- Custom t-shirts — cotton, blends and performance
- Team uniforms — names, numbers and full rosters
- Work uniforms and workwear — hi-vis, work shirts, jackets
- Promotional products — drinkware, bags, pens, banners
- The full garment catalogue — polos, outerwear, sweats and more
Ordering for a group
If more than a handful of people need to order, a branded online store saves the organiser the worst part of the job. Share one link, everyone picks their own size and pays for themselves, and we produce exactly what sold.
- No size spreadsheet and no cash collection
- Nobody fronts the money
- No leftover stock at the end
- Reopens next season from the same setup
Who we work with
- Military units — Camp Lejeune and MCAS New River.

- Business — staff polos and branded gear.
- Teams & leagues — uniforms and fan gear.
- Churches & nonprofits — events and volunteers.
- Trades & crews — workwear that lasts.
Common questions
Good to know
Which is right for my job — printing or embroidery?
As a rough guide: screen printing for tees and hoodies in any real quantity, and for large colourful designs. Embroidery for polos, jackets, bags and caps, and for smaller quantities where setup would dominate a print price. Plenty of orders use both — embroidered polos for staff, printed tees for everyone else.
Do you do everything in house?
The decorating, yes — printing and stitching both happen here on Plaza Drive, which is why we can be straight with you about what is achievable. Garments and promotional items come from our supplier network.
Can one order include several different things?
Yes, and it is common. A typical event order might be printed tees for the crowd, embroidered polos for staff and branded drinkware for sponsors — one quote, one contact, delivered together.
I do not know what I need yet. Can you help?
That is most of the job. Tell us what the garments are for, roughly how many people and any deadline, and we will recommend a method and a garment rather than sending you a catalogue.
Not sure which you need?
Describe the job and we will tell you which method fits — including when it is the cheaper one.
