I tried to work with this printer since they were closer to where I live but they were too busy to work with me.

They don't care for your business unless you are making huge orders. Stoped down to make a modest order and after 4 phone calls for pricing I gave up.

My Architecture company uses Touch of Grey Tees for all of our t shirts and logo gear (polos, hats, tote bags). Randy is really easy to work with and flexible with us, as some of our designers are very particular! The quality of product is fantastic and you won't get this quick of a turnaround time with anyone else. Highly recommend for any screen printing or embroidery needs you may have.

Randy and his staff at Touch of Grey are FANTASTIC. I needed 16 hats w/custom monogram turned around for a golf event. I called several weeks in advance, but they were booked almost two months out. Randy squeezed me in and not only did he complete the job early, but most importantly the quality was 5-star! Thanks, Touch of Grey Tees! You have a customer for life!
