Local Tshirt printing in Chicago during Covid

May 2, 2020 11:31 AM

I'd like to get some tshirts printed for myself, one design at a time, during covid. Plain text is fine but I'd be interested in shops too that can take an image I provide to put on a shirt. Variety of soft, awesome tshirts is a plus but local is the main thing - I'd like to stay within the city of Chicago. Any suggestions?

What is the quantity of t-shirts per design?

I've used T-shirt Deli to put a custom design on a hoodie, which still looks good 4 years later. It looks like they're still taking online orders.

Response by poster: I'd prefer to make only one shirt per design so I know that rules out some places.

If you’re on the North Side check out Strange Cargo in Andersonville; they do small orders (at a premium) and are doing curbside pickups.

Not sure if you have any interest in DIY, but I’ve been impressed with results I’ve gotten with Avery iron-on inkjet transfer paper.

Response by poster: No, I am asking about places to get something printed, as stated in the question.
