Go to ABC Tees in Rockville instead, where you will get appropriate customer service and great quality prints. I reached out to DC Shirt & Print to get 20 memorial tshirts for my father's funeral. Not only was the sales person dismissive, he told me a rush order would be "too expensive" and that he would email me a quote. Instead of emailing me a quote (while also assuming I wouldn't or couldn't pay for a rush order), he emailed me saying they don't have time to take on this job. I followed up asking for a quote and asking when the job could be done, and he never responded. read more

We purchased embroidered polos and printed tees. We love them! they were very busy, but still spent the time to work with us to order what we needed. read more

My company has worked with DC Shirt and Print for years now. They're a top notch print shop that is always willing to work through any questions or issues that come up. We've printed hundreds of shirts through them. John and his team are consummate professionals. They've had shirts delivered to us during times that we couldn't pick up from their shop. read more

Was not at all happy with the quality of shirts I received or the customer service. It was a rush order for t-shirt and we were told these are very nice quality shirts and you will like them. Because of the order being rush, it appears that the representative was not really patient enough with me to discuss the different variety of shirts from the beginning. So, we went with his recommendation. Upon picking up the shirts, the t-shirts were very thin and the small, medium and large sizes look like children sizes. These were for an adult sailing group. I also noticed that a lot of the other shirts that were laying around, that had been printed for other groups, were of better quality than the shirts we received. I point this out to the rep I was working with, and I expressed my concern at that time with not being pleased about the quality and size. He said, well, let us know how they go and if people like them or not. Quality is a matter of opinion. Okay. Well, the shirts were not a hit as I suspected. And when I called to report this, there was basically nothing they could do or offer to make it right. He did offer to talk to the owner about discounting an order if I would like to order printing in the future. But I feel like if you did not get the first order correct, why would I order something else? read more

do not recommend! I have been waiting for my order since august. I have tried contacting the company for week with no response! i still have not received my order or a refund! read more

These guys are such a pleasure to work with. The owner and the entire team is very accommodating. Good quality shirts,Quick Production, and rates can't be beat. My company has been using them for 4 years now! Very reliable source for our uniform prints! read more

I can be annoying. Case in point, my experience with DC Shirt and Print. Still, it takes two to tango. This place was recommended to me by a friend to get shirts made. I still run a record label, so a lot of my loosely appointed music friends and myself always need shirts for Miami in March for the WMC to promote our labels. A couple of years ago, I hit up the owner, John, when DCS&P was still called Buddha Screen Group. BSG had done some shirts for my friend many years ago that looked freakin' fab. Part of that was due to Jefferson Liu (Evecom)'s great design work, but back then BSG offered the kind of screen printing you couldn't get anywhere except Cali, NYC and for some reason, Texas and normally you'd pay an arm and a leg for. John was semi-helpful on round one, wherein the shirt project was aborted due to my inability to get the shirt down to a proper amount of colors and remove some of the artwork that rendered it unfit for silk-screening. I do illustration, and to get it shirt-ready would have compromised the art too much. This year, I was commissioned to do a shirt for someone else, and the same sort of situation ensued. I am a print designer, but the only shirts I've done in the past were very basic (fonts, two color, a logo, etc).--nothing as intricate as taking artwork and making it screen-ready. I pestered John a bit, tried to get more clear advice and reworked the art a few times, until he basically started ignoring me. Then yesterday I got this: "Hello, Is it just me, or have we been sending this artwork back and forth for close to three years now....? Your image (from my perspective) should not be printed in halftones. It will change the print. With this said, your design appears to have: 6 + colors when printed on lights. Add a white underbase for printing on darks." I think that's helpful, but even after 10+ years in the industry I'm not entirely clear on what he means. It's not that hard to pick up the phone. I just wouldn't call it stellar customer service. Bottom line: he was sick of dealing with me, and seemed to be saying he was done. So I'm going somewhere else. Low rating for feeling dissed, and minus a star for not carrying American Apparel tees, the shirts everyone and their momma seems to want to have shit printed on. I have to give a second star, though, because the shirts I have seen from BSG were so flippin' hot. read more

4.5 Stars We just picked up our second order from DC Shirt. We purchased 400 shirts. (800 total for 2 orders) In researching a place to buy t-shirts for the company I work for, we priced out many vendors both online and locally, and DC Shirt was by far the best price. For some perspective, they were cheaper then the competition when comparing apples to apples by almost $1 per shirt! The whole process was quick and efficient, although there were some difficulties initially with the first order with flexibility of them receiving the graphic file (which is why I gave a 1/2 star deduction). We had no issues when reversing our print colors on this second order. With our first order, he was willing to split the order to send part of it to a tradeshow and the other to our office, this was very helpful with the time crunch we were dealing with. From the time we contacted DC Shirt to place the order to the time we picked up the new shirts was less than 7 business day. Plus, John, the owner, went above and beyond to take care of us, as repeat customers. We will continue to work with DC Shirt and Print for future orders. It's nice to support local business too! read more

It is very difficult navigating the world of online printers, whether I need cards printed or T-Shirts. Prices and styles vary dramatically, and you hope to pick the right vendor - someone honest, talented, able to explain different fabric blends, printing styles, prices, etc. I used this company when they first began as Bhudda...Printing. The first job was fine, though in hindsight I am sure I overpaid. When I've tried to print with them since they have grown, I am met only with frustration. There was no loyalty. When the owner first tarted his business , he personally canvassed the neighborhood to ask us to support him as a local business.. In a recent attempt at ordering, I asked for quote on several jobs and also mentioned my budget. Several attempts to contact them were met with no return call or email. There are too many other good-enough printers out there, that I would recommend not getting caught with this printer. read more

The guys at DC Shirt & Print have been my trusted t-shirt vendor for over four years now. John, Micah and the rest of the crew consistently hit timelines, deliver top-quality work, and care about my orders regardless of whether it's larger corporate gig or a small pet project. As an art director, it's rare to find vendors who care as much about design work as much as I do, and they've advised me numerous times about the best way to print the image on a shirt. While their prices are the best I've seen locally, I always recommend them to others based on their quality, customer service, and reliability. The great pricing is the cherry on top. It's a true partnership, and I always look forward to working with DC S&P. Finding a business that isn't afraid to set up in DC proper (not MD or VA), despite the challenges, is one I proudly support-- it's easy to buy local when it's this good! read more

Recently worked with this company for a set of staff t-shirts. No exaggeration --- these were just perfect!!! Not only was the shirt quality and printing perfect (including very small lettering) but the staff was so helpful. Shout out to John who made this a seamless ordering process. Will certainly use DC Shirt and Print again! read more

I am a new and up coming graphic artist in the DC area and I wanted to get my designs on some shirts and DC Shirt & Print delivered. Since im new to the business some of my art, while good, needed to be print ready and these guys were able to help me get there without being critical. The best compliment you can give a business is becoming a repeat customer and I did just that. I would have to say the best part of working with them has been their customer service. Every order they make sure its dobe right, they work with me and when I pick up my order they are energetic and excited about how my design came out. Thanks DC Shirt & Print!

Great shirts, great prices, awesome service! You guys rock!

I can't say enough about John and DC Shirt & Print. I was in DC from Los Angeles for a work event last week and John saved the day. I got a text from my boss at 3:00 in the morning that our staff tee-shirts had not made to DC and we needed 100 tees with our conference logo in 24 hours. James from the front desk at The Park Hyatt put me in touch with John and as soon as I spoke with him all of my stress went away! He always answered his phone when I called and answered my email's as soon as he got them from me. Totally professional and a nice guy as well! Not only did he get the tees done well and at a very reasonable price - they were actually delivered to me before my deadline! I wish there was an option for 10 stars for DC Shirt & Print. read more

We have used DC Shirt and Print twice, both times with GREAT results. We find their prices to be competitive and their quality to be superior. They have not only printed our Orion's Attic t-shirts but also a big batch of hoodies. We ordered the highest quality material on both and it has been worth the extra few bucks. We abuse our "Attic gear" in estate sales, junk removal jobs and more. The shirts have taken a pounding and still feel soft and fresh and the design has not faded from the shirts despite them being washed a zillion times. It also never fails that every time we do a public event, people tell us they love our shirts and that they would even wear them. We plan to print another batch soon so that our customers can wear them! read more

I had DC Shirt & Print do some bags for my university organization and John was a delight throughout the entire process. When our image wasn't very good, their designer fixed it and our bags look beautiful. When our university refused to pay for the bags, Shirt & Print patiently waited for us to sort it out. Upon receiving payment the bags were ready in a matter of days. I spent more than I wanted to, but the prove reflected the quality & I'm happy to support local vendors! read more

I did a small order with this company to try them out, BTW I went in their office to feel them out and should have notice the funny feelings I had. When I got ready for another order their machine was so suppose to be broken, I called left many messages no one would email me back. I called just yesterday and spoke with DAVE or John I belive and he told me to email my order. Mind you this order is over 100 tshirts needed, mind you I paid for my art work and etc, so they have everything..I can feel the disrespect through the phone. the tshirt says missing Obama and I have sold many of these shirts, the last supplier I use before DCTS is out of the business of making tshirts. I was recommend to this place. I saw one of the reviews that said they don't return calls (I should have listen) they don't deserve a one star. Not only did I wait over a month for their machine to be repaired..these people never even emailed or called to say it's fix. Or like they wanted my business..OK I am now good with that! But I am not good with losing $50.00 on set up fee's. So what would you think they don't want my money..Or is is that I am selling A OBAMA TSHIRT? very well? I had a friend call yesterday just to see if they are serious about business and she said they said yes make a appointment or etc. but this place is the worst. Maybe they didn't like that I questioned them about a dull white shirt? that I got on last order, which also sold OUT but I was just asking to see if I could get whiter for the summer! As a business owner I had no where else to turn but here and I now I respect YELP big time. FAIR is FAIR and this business is not a FAIR business in any manner. read more

Came to DC Shirt and Print with a very important and extremely rushed project last week. Not only did they make my deadline, i received the shirts earlier than expected. The final product was amazing and the client loved it. read more

John and DC shirt are the Best. They give great pricing and superior service. I wish I had more people like them to deal with. They are true professionals! read more

These guys are aweeeeesome. I own a coffee house and we use them to print our t-shirts and they look COOL. The second time we used them to print, I wanted to use a different design than the original and John just threw something together for me to look at and it was awesome! Lots of shirts, lots of color choices and a personal touch with competitive pricing. What more can you ask for? read more

I love this place! These guys were incredibly helpful when I came to them with a difficult job. They did the work quickly (in one day) and the product was perfect. Don't go elsewhere...DC shirt and print is the best! read more

DC Shirt & Print printed our Rooting DC shirts last January and did a great job. They cleaned up our image for a sharper print at no extra charge, were reasonably priced (threw in a few extra tees!). The fellas were super nice and helpful, checking our order against the invoice to make sure we were getting what we ordered before I left the shop and loading the boxes into the car for me! read more
