This shop is full of great people! They find a way to get what no one else can. I went to three other companies when I was looking to change a uniform vendor. They all said the color was out of stock, First Coast T-Shirt had my shirts ready for pick up in 2 weeks. The fastest turn around I've had for a clothing order for my company. They communicate about your order. They're upfront about what they can do, how much it will be, and when it will get done.
Everyone there treats me like royalty, and I'm not a big client by far. 100% on correct orders. If you want something quality representing your brand, from a local/veteran owned business, do yourself a favor and go here. They are the best vendor I deal with, and their pricing is incredible! Compared to who I was previously using for uniforms, I saved 20-25% for a better quality product and orders that arrive in half to 1/3 of the time. Support some Vets, get better products, less expensive, quicker turn around, happier employees, and service you can't find anywhere else.

I wanted to get a rain jacket with my organizations logo embroidered onto it, however I was having a hard time finding a place that could do it for a reasonable cost locally. I contacted First Coast T's and worked with Darvy. He had several suggestions and was very helpful during the consult and design process. He kept excellent communication from start to finish. My rain jacket came out better than I expected with the logo perfectly executed, and it was done in less than 10 business days. I would recommend First Coast T's and Darvy to anyone looking for quality work at great prices. Thanks again!
