All I did was tell them our team name and their artists immediately sent an awesome design for my approval. Nothing had to be tweaked- they designed exactly what I wanted on the first try. A & R Screening responded promptly to all my questions and even added on a shirt last minute for a late participant. The shirts were ready more than a week before game time and pick up was smooth. My order (sizes/fits) was 100% accurate. There were over 30 teams at the softball tournament and I was told several times that our team definitely won best uniforms. If you need customized t-shirts-, A & R Screening is the place to go.
