What happens if my item is out of stock?
Our warehouses are well stocked and are ready and waiting to fulfill your order. Occasionally some items are so popular they sell out faster than the replacement units can arrive and there can be a short gap in stock availability. Most items are re-stocked quickly, but if you are unable to wait we will work with you to try and identify a suitable replacement item.
We usually ship orders as a complete order, if you would like to ship part of your order whilst awaiting a back order we will be happy to do that for an additional shipping fee. Please reach out and we can assist.

Artwork FAQ's
I don't have my artwork file?
We can help!
Everyday we help clients recreate files to the formats required to get a banging look for their Clothing and Merch. Get in touch and we will be happy to help :). A small additional fee may apply.
What is a Vector File?
A vector file is an editable file for your logo, that is clean and clear and will provide an excellent quality reproduction of your logo.
The usual file types we work with are
.ai
.eps
Not sure if you have the correct file, then send us the files you have and we can help you get sorted pronto :)
What are PMS colours?
PMS colours are colours from a colour pallete book (much the same as when you go and choose paint swatches). All the top quality embroiders/printers will have the reference book and that way we can match up the colours in your logo giving you a consistent look.
Some equipment does not use PMS colours, in which case we will print your logo in CMYK colour blends which will give a close colour match.
Please let us know about any colour specifics and we will be happy to help :)

Can I use a JPEG file?
For embroidery we can generally use a JPEG file, for all other decotration types we prefer a vector file which is editable or in some circumstances we can use a PNG file with a clear background.
You can always send us the files you have and we will be happy to see if they are suitable
