Port & Company PC61 Essential Tee, screen printed
The PC61 is the shirt most Reno orders land on. Heavyweight 6.1-ounce cotton, a flat surface that takes plastisol and discharge well, and a $6.04 blank. Battle Born Clothing prints it in-house and considers it quite a bit better than Gildan at the same money.
From $10.38 each at 48 (1-color front, light shirt)

Decoration options

Left-chest embroidery is available for staff shirts at the rates below. DTF transfers for small runs or full-color art are quoted per job.

Sizes, colors and stock
S-6XL in most colors; 2XL and up carry the supplier upcharge. SanMar's Reno warehouse is our default source, so most PC61 colors arrive at the shop the next business day. Tall sizes exist in some colors; ask. Battle Born Clothing sends a digital proof before printing.
