We highly recommend you consider this group for your t-shirt and other marketing apparel needs. We've used them several times for our band - www.cureforgravity.net and they've always come through - even when we ring them at the last possible minute for a rush job they never give attitude and always come through on time. Rael has a distinct eye for colors and knows his stuff when it comes to the preparation of art files and selection of colors and materials. He's helped us make sure our designs look as professional as possible! read more

This is our 3rd time placing an order with Rael and every time he exceeds our expectations! We are a fairly large school that needs quick turnarouds and Rael has never hesitated to get us our items by the day we need them and is usually done earlier! We look forward to continuing our business with them. read more

I know that this is probably not realistic in most situations but I came to Rael Ts in need of a few totes with a fast turn around. I had a few issues because I had the wrong bag and I needed my graphic in the right format i was met with patience AND THEN to my Suprise my tote bags were ready within 2 days and I was able to have them for my event! They look great! Perfect! I almost cried! the totes sold out and now im on my way back. Long story long, I had a great experience read more

Got a great deal on high quality shirts. Great customer service. They went through the whole process with me and even explained how the shirts are made. Highly recommend. read more

You can't get better service anywhere else. I've been doing business with Rael for about 7 years now and I absolutely will not go anywhere else for my printing. Quality is excellent, service is amazing, and he is just about the most pleasant, professional, and accommodating person you will ever meet. read more

I found Ant Tees on google and I am so glad I found this place! Rael was professional and was able to schedule an appointment to go over my vision in a timely manner. When I met with him, he told me the work would be finished in 2-3 weeks; however, they were finished in 24 hours!! I was pleasantly surprised even though he let me know that is a very rare occurrence. I am already planning to have my next batch of sweatshirts printed here. read more

Rael worked an absolute miracle for my team! We had been experiencing issues finding a custom t-shirt producer who could meet our quick turnaround - Rael took our order and got to work on it same day! He was communicative, friendly, and ultra helpful. He secured materials for our project and produced our end product (tees with a custom design on front AND back) within two days of our reaching out to him with our ask. We were able to forego shipping costs on account of his speed of play - he was an absolutely incredible partner in this last-minute project, and his tees were high-quality! Many of our teammates remarked that they would plan to continue to wear their tees well beyond our management event. Highly recommend Rael for his attentive, quick, and high-quality work. I'll be telling my coworkers to reach out to him for their projects as well! read more

Rael T's was incredible. Not only the best deal in town but fantastic quality. We printed our company tshirts as well as sweaters. About a month later I needed an additional large shirt and we had run out so I printed from one of the online printers since I just needed one. After just a few washings the quality looks so so so much better from the shirts I got from Rael. I will upload a photo so you can see for yourself. read more

Ant Tees Rael T's - Rael's shirt is on top after a dozen washings and a shirt from customink.com is on the bottom after just 3 washes. Rael WINS! - Screen Printing/T-Shirt Printing Near Me - Oakland, California

I found Ant Tees on Google and decided to give them a try because of all of the great reviews that they had. I called them up and spoke with Rael the owner, AWESOME guy! He explained the process to me over the phone and gave me his recommendations on shirts that print well and shirts that don't. I put my complete trust in him and I am happy to say that I did. My shirts turned out beautiful!! He runs the whole show, so you can guarantee the job will be done right and when promised. I am very happy with the quality of printing and quality of service that I received from Ant Tees. If you want the job done right the first time Rael is your man and he is now my go-to man for printing! read more

Rael and JoJo did a peculiar glass engraving project for me years ago that turned out well beyond swell. They have also done a number of printing jobs for special events my office has hosted. Shirts were right the first time and occasionally even ahead of schedule! They have now added a line of other printed promotional materials to their repertoire. I love Oakland Small Businesses! Shop Local and Thrive! read more

Rael is an awesome guy who runs a fantastic screenprint shop (AntTees). We've worked together for 5+ years and I've always been more than happy with the quality of his work, his customer service, and the way he partners with us to make our designs even better. If you're looking to brand some swag, run a limited edition of screenprint art, or create stellar T-shirts, then Rael is your guy. The shop is located in West Oakland and parking is easy, which makes dropping in for a proof or to pick up small local orders really easy. Ant Tees will also gladly ship your order to where you need it if you can't pick it up, are buying big or for non-local locations. read more

Rael is a master craftsman who did an incredible job. He really focused on making sure we got a quality shirt that met our expectations of what we were looking for. If you need some shirts made. Rael is the man. read more

Just printed our new company shirts from Rael and his team, and LOVE them! He spent so much time and care in answering my myriad of questions- since this was my first time ordering- and never lost his patience. Thank you, Rael! Have been wearing mine around town and getting a lot of complements. We'll certainly be back for more shirts in the future. read more

I have been working with Rael for many years now and he has always been very accomodating! His prices are sharp, quality is great and he is also fast! As I run a business, I have looked around for better pricing but have continued staying with him. THANKS! read more

Rael did a great job - easy to communicate with, responsive, clearly very experienced! He priced our shirts really well, we paid about $7 each and were able to re-sell them for $20. The quality was great, our design looked perfect, and the turnaround time was awesome too. Yay! read more

Such a great and quality product I received when j places my order. Rael was very help full in helping me navigate as I had no clue what I was working for. He had it done quickly me and I was able to pick them up right away when I needed them. Highly recommended! read more

Rael T's and Ant Tees rocks! Rael did an awesome job screen printing the logo for my play "A Question of Sanity" onto t-shirts. Several people have asked where I got the design done. I send 'em straight to Rael. It's the least I can do, as thanks to him I have such a great walking advertisement for my play. read more

As a meticulous artist having my intricate artwork printed on shirts, I'm about as demanding a customer as one could expect. But for over 10 years Rael has consistently exceeded my expectations, delivering beautiful prints, in short order, at an excellent price. And in doing so has been instrumental in the growth and success of my art based business. I couldn't have done it without him! read more

Rael's a baddass. He's not only at the top of his game in terms of the craft of screen-printing and computer graphics, but he's also incredibly thoughtful and conscientious about what you as a an artist are hoping to achieve. In short, he cares. (And not just about you being happy, but also about your artwork being as good as it can be -- his efforts and expertise have been essential to the overall look of my line.) During the time that I've been working with Rael he's consistently gone above and beyond the call of duty -- so much so, that I know I'm completely spoiled and that at this point, I honestly can't imagine working with anyone else. -Adam (The Girl and Rhino) read more

I just got this year's batch of tee-shirts and they are fantastic. Great service, they even helped me load my truck!

My company uses Rael T's to print our tshirts, and we absolutely love the service. The print quality is always great, and Rael is an awesome guy to deal with. He's fast, friendly and super honest - he'll always notice if a shirt has a hole and deduct the cost, or if the print didn't turn out quite right, he'll replace them free of charge. His prices are also really great. I can't recommend Rael T's enough! read more

I've been working extensively with Rael for over 3 years now for my small business: by now he's printed thousands of shirts for me. He does a good, solid job and has great prices. Quick turnaround time too. read more

We have been printing with Rael for years! Local, personalized service with great rates! His turn time is excellent and has always met our deadlines (even when I messed up and sent the order in late - ek!) Thanks Rael! read more

I'm so impressed! Rael made my first experience ordering political t shirts in quantity a non-stressful, rewarding experience. And the shirts look great! read more

I was in trouble. Another printer had dropped my order at the last minute and I was in a bind. Not sure if anyone could help me, I called all over Oakland. Rael came to the rescue! I had only four days to get the order in and give out the shirts. Real helped me pick the styles ( I had never done this before) pick the colors and fine-tuned the design. He had my shirts done in UNDER the deadline, early, I was thrilled!! He saved us, and he saved my chemistry class! It was a great success. The shirts were soft, they looked great, and the price was right! Thanks so much, Rael. If I ever need shirts again, I will go straight to you! read more

My experiences with Rael have always been great. He's professional and easy to work with, is reasonably priced and the end result looks great. I also appreciate that he's willing to do jobs in small runs and that the turnaround time is quick. Definitely recommended. read more

Ant Tees has been producing amazing t-shirts for us for over 7 years. We're a high school drama program running on a tight budget. Regardless, the kids have to look good on stage and off. Their t-shirts are advertising for our musicals. They reflect the quality and art of our productions. Rael understands that and he has always provided high quality shirts and production for far less than... I would say "competitors" but I don't think any one can compete with him. I can always count on him to double check my art and color choices and help me deliver shirts that make our students proud. read more

Rael T's was the only screen company in the East Bay willing to take on my complex project, starting a t-shirt business from Cali to Kauai. My goal is to have my artist, aka husband, retire from construction. Rael brought me back to reality. He told me not to quit our day jobs. Haha. He also convinced me not to make 200 shirts but only 50. My plan is to take the shirts to Kauai for a festival. I ended up making 125. He is very conscientious and is extremely knowledgeable on making t-shirts. He taught me a lot about starting a business such as getting my seller permits and making shirts. I took my crash course "101 Rael T's Screen Printing" home and pulled out screen tees and explained the differences to my husband. He was very impressed. Rael took the time to explain the different types of printing and the cost of them. He went beyond his duty as a t-shirt maker to help my husband with the designs and how to set them up for printing. Rael invested A LOT of his time with us. He was very concerned about us spending a lot of money and having t-shirts to hand out for Christmas the next 10 years. LOL. He definitely has a great sense of humor. We are so happy to have found Rael. Customer Service is exceptional. It is always great to work with the person who is the one doing the job. He does the work himself or is closely watching someone elset. For being a small operation, he had our shirts ready for pick-up in advance! We are SOOOO happy with the results. We ended up using American Apparel Tees mainly because we want to support the American Economy. Keep the money in America!! I already want to make more shirts but Rael told me to sell the ones I have before placing another order! LOL. He is a great guy! We love him! Thank you very much for being so patience with us! I am going to come back and order more shirts. I am also working on a website page. Will make sure I mentioned Rael T's on my website!!! He is the best! Also, he is located very close to my work. Perfect location! You won't regret using Rael T's!! read more
