East Bay Screenprint Custom Shirts and Screen Printing Gallery

While this print is about a year old, it really represents the colors of that time, NEON!!!! This shirt is for the Exploratorium, which if you’re a Bay Area native, needs no further explanation.

This is a 2 color print for a local clothing line. We used plastisol for this print as it was going on a bunch of different colored shirts, some of them non-dischargeable.

This print is made up of two different inks. The red background is waterbased discharge, our secret mix that results in a very bright red that washes well. On top of that is black plastisol. We went with plastisol for the black as we wanted the print to have a bit of gloss to it to stand out from the ground, Gildan 5000 Charcoal shirts.

Here’s a nice 4 color plastisol print for an animation company. He literally looks like he’s jumping off the shirt!

Here’s a 4 color waterbased print on light shirts
that we did for the Montclair Elementary Metrathon.

We used Port and Company Organic cotton shirts,
and waterbased inks. Not only do these shirts have
a very nice feel, this is arguably the most
environmentally friendly way to screen print
t-shirts.

Of course, great artwork always helps as well.

Here is a 4 color oversized waterbased discharge
print we did for a local high school club. There are
not many shop that print waterbased discharge,
and if this particular print had been executed
using standard plastisol inks the result would
have been like wearing a heavy shield on your
chest. Waterbased discharge inks actually
become part of the fabric, and after washing can
not be felt by the hand. They are also bright and
breathable, which makes them preferred for many
designs.

Oversize over the seam and off the bottom of the shirt printing

All over and off the bottom of the shirt with a single color makes for an interesting
and inexpensive print.

BrewSkee Ball!

We’ve now printed 2 seasons of these BrewSkeeBall
shirts. We use both Gildan and American Apparel
shirts, and a bright single color water based discharge  on both.

two color duct tape print

We’ve been printing shirts for TechShop, located in Menlo Park, CA, for a number of years now. Every year they exhibit at the annual Maker’s Faire and usually have some cool shirts to bring along. This year they went with a two color duct tape design on back as well as their logo on front. This was an interesting print to produce, trying to recreate the look of duct tape on a t-shirt.

Custom Foil Screen Printing on Shirts

Here is an example of our foil work. Foil is an interesting embellishment method that can be used to add a special effect to printed shirts. There are limitations to the process however, and most garments should be hand washed if possible. Foil comes in a wide variety of colors and can be used with other effects for  nearly limitless combinations. Contact us with your ideas for for a quote today.

Custom Printed Tote Bags

We printed 1000 of  these reusable tote bags for the Inner Sunset Farmer’s Market.  A very simple one color print with a great design makes for an inexpensive promotional handout.

Remember When Cycles Shirts

Steve, the owner of Remember When Cycles, Port Costa California, contacted us to produce a design for his new business. We came up with the image pictured above, and Steve loved it. He had us print it on our Heavyweight shirts, as we all know how tough those bikers can be.
