Merced County

A few things worth knowing about working with the shop from Los Banos.

From The Red Barn in Hollister, Los Banos is about an hour east on Highway 152.

Los Banos sits an hour east of The Red Barn, on the other side of Pacheco Pass, and the work that moves between the two towns leans ag, dairy, and family-run. The orders Sublime runs for the Westside tend to be embroidered ranch shirts, work uniforms for crew bosses and dairy operators, and fan gear for the schools. Sublime has had a Los Banos Elementary apparel program running for years, with $3 from every LBE purchase going back to the Parent Club.

If you are running a project that crosses city lines, the shop also serves Gilroy, Hollister and Modesto, with the same crew handling intake to ship.

If This Sounds Like You

Sublime is built for Los Banos buyers who fit any of these.

  • You run a Los Banos service-trade business and your crew needs branded jackets, polos, or hats that hold up
  • You own a Los Banos retail brand and you want embroidered hats and apparel customers actually want to wear
  • You manage a Los Banos office, gym, or studio and you need a uniform program that looks consistent across the team
  • You have a logo and you want it kept on file forever so reorders are a one-line email

Industries

Built for shops that show up in branded gear.

In Los Banos, that lands as agriculture, dairy, ranching, logistics, and schools. The work is the same idea regardless: branded gear that holds up to daily wear and gets reordered.

Service Trades

Construction, painters, electricians, plumbers, roofers, landscapers, HVAC. Embroidered Carhartt-style jackets, branded hi-vis, crew uniforms.

Corporate & Office

Onboarding kits, branded polos, event swag for company offsites and trade shows.

Owner-Operator Shops

Family businesses, restaurants, breweries, retail brands. Short-run merch and reorder programs that grow with the business.

Gyms & Studios

Tanks, tees, hoodies, fan gear. Soft-hand prints that members actually wear out of the gym.

Why You Are In Good Hands

The questions Los Banos buyers ask first.

Direct answers to the concerns most Los Banos businesses bring up before placing the first order.

You are not in Los Banos that is a problem, right?

From Los Banos, the shop is about 65 minutes by drive. Most Los Banos orders ship the same week or get picked up at The Red Barn on Fairview Road in Hollister. Direct-to-jobsite delivery is available on larger orders. The location does not slow your project down.

How do I know the print will actually come out right?

Every order gets a mockup on the actual garment color before any ink or thread moves. You sign off before the press runs. If something is off after delivery, the shop fixes it the same day, no argument and no upcharge.

Are the minimums going to be a problem for my crew?

Lower than most: 24 pieces for screen printing, 12 hats for embroidery, and 1 piece for DTF transfers. If your project is below the screen printing minimum, the shop will quote DTF instead and walk you through the tradeoff.

Will the turnaround actually work for my Los Banos timeline?

Standard turnaround is five business days from artwork approval. Rush is usually possible if a job kicks off Monday and ships Friday. Tell us your deadline up front and we will tell you what is realistic before you commit.

What happens after the first order?

Your logo gets kept on file, your blanks list and sizing notes stay on hand, and reorders are usually a one-line email. New hires, replacement gear, seasonal restocks, all run from the same files at no additional setup.

Can I trust you with my Los Banos brand?

5.0 stars across 102+ verified Google reviews, family-owned by Ron Benavente and Brian Newman since 2017, four humans and four shop dogs running every order out of The Red Barn. The reorder rate is what tells you whether a printer can be trusted, and ours stays high.

Quick Definitions

The terms, in plain English.

Screen printing

A printing method that pushes ink through a mesh stencil onto a garment, one color at a time. Best for bulk runs with one to six colors.

Embroidery

Stitching a logo or design directly into the garment with thread. Permanent, structural, and best on hats, polos, jackets, and workwear.

DTF transfer

Direct-to-Film, a method that prints full-color art onto a film and presses it onto the garment with heat. Best for short runs, photo art, and fabric-tricky orders.

Pantone matching

Using a Pantone Matching System swatch book to mix screen printing inks to a specific brand color, so the print comes off the press the way the brand intends.
