Came here to make an order for some custom hoodies. They were extremely helpful and friendly. They helped to make the design more suitable for printing and made it very clear how the product was to be made. They were very quick to reply with enquiries I had. The quality of the print is exceptional, especially given that the design was a little complicated. If you need any custom clothing made, this is the best place to go to by far. Highly recommended.

This company seems incapable of fulfilling a simple order. They waste time, and their stock system is problematic. Customer service very poor
