Short answer: ANCO's standard custom T-shirt packages start at CAD $250 for 12 shirts and CAD $495 for 24. Packages include one 4 × 4 in left-chest DTF print, sizes S–XL and setup. For 48+ standard T-shirts, the published volume rate starts at CAD $25 per shirt. The volume rate assumes one standard-size DTF print location; the final quote depends on the garment, artwork, quantity, locations and availability. Taxes and optional delivery are additional where applicable.

| 12 shirts | $250 package | Ask whether the standard package fits your garment and artwork. |
| 24 shirts | $495 package | Confirm the size breakdown and that all pieces use the agreed print. |
| 12–23 shirts | From $29 per shirt | Volume starting rate; request a confirmed total for the actual order. |

Package starting prices include standard T-shirts or pullover hoodies in sizes S–XL, one 4 × 4 in left-chest DTF print and setup. Larger sizes, larger prints and additional locations cost extra. Final pricing depends on garment selection, artwork dimensions, quantity, print locations and availability. Taxes and optional delivery are additional where applicable.
The package totals and per-shirt volume rates are separate published starting options. Multiplying a displayed per-shirt rate by 12 or 24 does not replace the package price. Ask which option applies to your request and use the confirmed quote when approving a budget.
For a mixed order of shirts, hoodies or polos, use the custom apparel cost guide. This page focuses on comparing T-shirt quantities and print scope.
What the standard T-shirt packages include
- One 4 × 4 in left-chest DTF print
- Full-colour artwork
- Artwork/order review before production
- Mixed sizes S–XL where available
- Setup included
- Local pickup
The package covers standard T-shirts with the stated print scope. Local pickup is included; confirm the arrangements when your order is reviewed. A second print location, a larger design, a different garment or an unavailable size can change the quote. Full-colour artwork does not mean unlimited print locations.
ANCO uses DTF transfers applied with a heat press. Read the DTF and screen-printing comparison if you are comparing different production methods. ANCO does not offer screen printing or embroidery.
Compare the same finished shirt
| Item | Ask for | Why the answer matters |
|---|---|---|
| Blank or printed | Confirm whether the price includes the shirt and decoration | A blank-shirt price is not the cost of a finished printed shirt. |
| Garment | Exact style, colour and size range | Different garments are not interchangeable quotes. |
| Dimensions and every location | Front only and front plus back are different scopes. | |
| Variants | Names, numbers or artwork changes | Repeated artwork and individual designs need separate review. |
| Total | Quantity, taxes and any delivery or preparation charges | A unit price alone does not establish the amount payable. |
Illustrative comparison: 24 shirts with a front logo and back text
Illustrative example · Not a documented customer order
The CAD $495 starting package includes one 4 × 4 in left-chest DTF print. A front logo plus back text requests two locations. Send both designs and ask for the revised total before treating the package as your budget.
If the budget is fixed, compare an approved front-only version with the two-location version. Keep the garment and quantity the same so you can see which decision changes the quote. No extra-location price is assumed here.
Order the quantity you need
A lower starting unit rate does not automatically make a larger order better value. Count the shirts people need, then list any deliberate spares separately. If you only need a few shirts, request a small-order quote before buying extra pieces to reach a package quantity.
Use the bulk T-shirt order plan for group counts or the small-order guide for a handful of pieces. Send your garment preference, quantity, sizes, artwork, print locations and date to request a custom T-shirt quote.
