Preorder storefronts.

Not everyone wants to gamble a thousand dollars on a box of shirts and hope the sizes were right. So don’t. We host a preorder page, your people prepay, and we print exactly what sold.

You send artwork and pick the shirts

Same artwork rules as any other job. Tell us which blanks, which colors, which sizes you want offered, and what you want to charge per shirt.

We build the page

A hosted storefront with your design on it, per-color product photos, size and quantity pickers, a goal meter and a countdown to the closing date. You get one link to put in a bio, an email or a poster.

Your people prepay

Orders and sizes tally automatically as they come in. You can watch the goal fill without asking us for a count.

The window closes and we print

We print the exact quantities that sold, in the exact sizes. No leftover XXLs in a box under a table for two years.

You hand them out

Pick the run up at the shop, sorted and counted. Everyone who preordered already paid, so you are done.

Who this is for

Anyone who shouldn't be fronting the money.

Bands doing a record release. School fundraisers where nobody wants to collect cash in an envelope. Nonprofits with a board that will not approve inventory. Neighbourhood restaurants testing whether people actually want the shirt before printing a hundred of them.

What you get

A real storefront, not a form.

Zero up front

You pay nothing to start. Prepaid orders cover the run. There is no inventory to gamble on and no deposit to find.

Your own page

Your artwork, your prices, your shirt colors, each with its own product photo. One link that works everywhere.

Goal and deadline

Set how many you are after and when it closes. A live meter shows progress, which is the thing that actually gets people to order.

Sizes handled

Every order records its own size. When the window shuts, the size breakdown is already done and correct.

A hosted preorder storefront for a single shirt: front and back views, a size picker, and a countdown banner showing days left in the ordering window. — A single-design store: front and back views, size picker, and a countdown across the top. This is what a record-release run usually looks like.

A hosted preorder storefront offering a youth tee, an adult tee and a tank top in three colorways, each with its own size and quantity picker. — A multi-product store for the Dr. Pat Feinstein Child Development Center — youth tee, adult tee and tank, three colorways each, all on one page.

The finished Frank & Laurie’s shirt: hand-drawn oysters in blue with red accents and Devilishly Good! in script. — A two-color front, printed wet-on-wet. This is the kind of design a preorder page sells well: one strong image, readable at arm’s length.

Worth knowing

The honest version.

A preorder only works if you can actually reach people. We build the page and handle the printing; getting the link in front of your audience is on you. Twenty committed buyers beats two thousand followers who scroll past.

Set the window short. Two to three weeks is usually right — long enough that everyone sees it, short enough that nobody forgets. And set the price with a margin in it. The quote page will show you what you clear per shirt before you commit to a number.

If the goal does not hit, nothing bad happens. We can extend, shrink the run, or refund. Nobody is stuck with shirts.
