Who we print for across Hampton

Langley AFB & NASA Langley

Joint Base Langley-Eustis and NASA Langley Research Center anchor the north side of the city, and the contractors, squadrons, and family readiness groups around them order shirts all year. Squadron PT tees, command family day shirts, deployment homecoming gear, contractor team polos, and event tees for NASA community days. Send the crest as a vector file with Pantone numbers and the colors hold from the first run to the reorder.

Hampton University

Hampton University brings the Pirates, Greek life, student organizations, academic departments, Homecoming, and alumni chapters with deep loyalty to the campus. Tees and hoodies on college timelines, with royal blue and white off Pantone numbers so every reorder matches. The businesses along Settlers Landing Road and the downtown waterfront that serve the campus order staff tees alongside them.

Downtown Hampton, Phoebus & the Waterfront

Downtown Hampton along Queens Way and the waterfront has the restaurants, breweries, the Virginia Air & Space Science Center, the carousel, and the harbor cruise and charter operators. Phoebus along Mellen Street has its own restaurant and bar strip. Staff tees, retail merch, and event shirts for Blackbeard Festival weekend, the Hampton Jazz Festival crowd, and the summer waterfront events are regular orders.

Coliseum Central & Peninsula Town Center

Coliseum Central is the retail and business district around Peninsula Town Center, the Hampton Coliseum, the convention center, and the hotels off Mercury Boulevard and I-64. Employee tees and polos for the retail and hospitality staffs, conference and event shirts for the Coliseum and convention center calendar, and Pantone-matched polos for the medical and professional offices along Coliseum Drive.

Buckroe, Fort Monroe & the Bayfront

Buckroe Beach, Fort Monroe, and the Chesapeake Bay side of the city have the beach bars, seafood restaurants, the Fort Monroe businesses and events, and the neighborhoods along Mallory Street and Pembroke Avenue. Retail merch with a bayfront theme, staff tees for the seasonal crowd, and event shirts for the Buckroe summer concerts and the Fort Monroe festivals. Garment-dyed Comfort Colors in coastal shades are the usual pick.

Schools & Youth Sports

Hampton City Schools keeps the booster clubs active: Hampton, Bethel, Kecoughtan, and Phoebus high schools, the middle schools, and the elementary PTAs. Crabbers, Bruins, Warriors, and Phantoms spirit wear, senior shirts, band, JROTC, and fundraiser orders. Add the Hampton Parks and Recreation leagues and the travel teams playing at the Boo Williams Sportsplex, and youth and school orders are a big share of what ships to the city. We keep per-piece costs low so booster sales actually raise money.

Hampton screen printing questions

Do you deliver to Hampton?

Yes. Every order ships free by UPS Ground anywhere in Virginia, so a Phoebus restaurant, a Langley family readiness group, or a Bethel booster club gets it delivered at no charge. Orders arrive 2 to 3 weeks after the invoice is paid.

What's the minimum order?

12 pieces per design. Mix brands, styles, colors, and sizes inside that 12, so a beach bar can put one logo on tees for the deck and tanks for the summer staff in one order. Price it on the quote calculator.

Can you match Hampton University, Bethel, or Kecoughtan colors?

Yes. We offer Pantone color matching. Send the Pantone (PMS) numbers and we mix ink to match; the numbers need to be provided for us to color match, since we can't match from a photo, a logo file or a hex code. The same goes for a squadron crest.

Do I need to come to a shop?

No. The whole order runs by email or the contact form: artwork and sizes in, an itemized quote back, a paid invoice places the order, and the finished shirts ship to your door. Vector files help, and Pantone numbers are needed for any color you want matched.
