Why order local

Your run never leaves the building.

Order shirts from a faceless website and you are a ticket number. Order from The Red Barn and a real person owns your job from first call to pickup.

  • Real customer service and care. One person at our family shop owns your order from art to boxes, and when you dial (831) 821-3582, they actually pick up.
  • Attention to detail. Your color gets a real Pantone match and you approve a mockup before anything prints, so the run comes out wash-tough and dead-on.
  • Kept on file. Your art, ink colors, and placement stay on file with us, so next year's reorder matches batch one from one phone call.
  • Local and accountable. Printed at The Red Barn in Hollister, pick up or ship. If something needs a fix, it happens same day, not in a two-week reprint queue.

What We Print

If ink can reach it, we can print it.

Screen printing is the service this shop is named for. Front hits, full backs, sleeves, and oversized prints run through the press every day, on blanks we supply or the ones you bring in.

Everyday
T-Shirts & Tanks

Soft cotton, tri-blends, performance tees, and tanks. From a one-color front hit to a full-color front and back, printed to stay bright wash after wash.

Heavyweight
Hoodies & Crewnecks

Fleece takes ink differently than a tee, and we run it every week. Chest hits, full backs, and sleeve prints that stay soft on heavyweight fleece.

Teams & Schools
Spirit & Team Gear

Spirit wear, fundraiser tees, and team shirts for schools and clubs across San Benito County. Mascots, rosters, and multi-color designs handled all the time.

Businesses
Crew & Shop Shirts

Company tees and work shirts your crew will actually keep wearing. Your logo Pantone matched, so the shirts match the truck and the sign.

Events
Runs, Fundraisers & Merch

Race day, festival, church group, band merch. Bulk runs priced to make sense, printed on a schedule that holds to your event date.

Your Blanks
Bring Your Own Garments

Already bought your shirts? Bring them in. We check the fabric, match the ink to it, and print your gear with the same care as ours.

The Press Floor

Run by a printer, not a portal.

Ron has been pulling prints since the mid-'90s, and he runs every job on this floor. Ink is mixed to a real Pantone match, and the first shirt off the press is checked against your approved mockup before the run goes.

Color Accuracy

Your brand color, matched for real.

Online printers get your logo close and call it done. We mix ink against a physical Pantone book at the press, checked on the actual garment color, until it matches the swatch. The red on your shirts is the same red on your sign and your truck.

  • Real Pantone matching, not a screen approximation
  • Ink checked on the actual garment color before the run
  • The mix recorded with your order, so reorders match batch one

Ink Options

The right ink for the fabric.

Plastisol for bold, durable color on team and work gear. Water-based and discharge for that soft vintage hand where you barely feel the print. We recommend the system that fits your fabric and the look you want, and tell you the tradeoffs straight.

  • Plastisol for punchy, wash-tough color
  • Water-based and discharge for a soft, broken-in feel
  • Straight advice on which ink fits your job

Print Coverage

Front, back, sleeve, or all three.

One print location rarely tells the whole story. We run front hits, full backs, sleeve prints, and oversized prints on the same garment in the same run. You approve one mockup that shows every location before we go.

  • Front, back, sleeve, and oversized print locations
  • Multiple locations in one run, on one invoice
  • Every placement shown on your mockup first

Turnaround

Your deadline is the job.

Standard screen printing turnaround is five business days once your mockup is approved. Up against an event, a season opener, or a company party? Tell us the date up front and you get a straight yes or no, and when we say yes, we hit it.

  • Five business day standard after mockup approval
  • Rush is often possible when the job kicks off early in the week
  • Local pickup at The Red Barn or shipped anywhere in the country

Blanks & Bulk

Our blanks, your blanks, or a bulk run.

We supply blanks from every major catalog, and we print on garments you bring in. Bulk runs are where the per-shirt math gets friendly, and the 24-piece minimum keeps small jobs on the table too.

  • 24-piece minimum, mix sizes within the run
  • Bring-your-own blanks welcome, fabric checked before we print
  • Bulk pricing that drops as the count climbs

Reorders

Order once. Reorder in a call.

  • Art, ink colors, and placement stored on file
  • Reorders match the first run, no re-explaining the job
  • Standing programs for teams, crews, and growing brands

We connected with Sublime for an order of over 300 t-shirts. Maria had thorough communication throughout, double-checked the order, printed samples to review, and even dropped everything off at our institution at no additional cost. Good materials, unbeatable prices.

If you want care and quality at an affordable price, THIS IS YOUR PLACE. They make our screen printed t-shirts, tote bags, and etched coffee mugs. Their capabilities go far beyond that. Embroidered hats, shirts, team jerseys, laser engraving. Customer service is top notch.

We reached out with a last-minute request for custom prints for over 100 employees just before Christmas. Despite the tight turnaround, they made it happen. They went above and beyond to meet our deadline. We have relied on Sublime for numerous projects and every experience has been excellent.

Sublime helped create an online, on-demand shop for our elementary school's parent club, so we could sell spirit wear without the overhead cost. Friendly, responsive, and they go above and beyond. We recently placed a bulk order and it was completed quickly, with great attention to detail.

I have worked with Sublime on several projects that required a lot of attention to detail, as well as creative input, and they delivered in every area. Very professional, amazing assistance, quick response, and overall great experience.

One family, one barn, four shop dogs.

Sublime is the family shop inside The Red Barn at 7600 Fairview Road, Hollister. Your shirts are printed by the people whose name is on the building, with pickup at the barn or shipping anywhere in the country. Call and one of us answers, usually with a dog underfoot.

Built for crews, not just closets.

Most of what leaves this press goes to a business. Safety shirts for the job site, polos for the front counter, hoodies for a crew that works outside all winter. Your logo gets a real Pantone match, so the shirts match the truck and the sign.

  • Contractors and trades. Hi-vis tees, safety shirts, and work shirts that survive a real week. Printed heavy, on blanks picked to hold up instead of to hit a catalog price.
  • Offices and front counters. Corporate polos, button-downs, and branded tees for the people your customers actually stand in front of.
  • Schools, teams, and city departments. Spirit wear, staff shirts, and department gear. This shop runs those all year, not just in August.
  • Shops and growing brands. Retail-ready tees and hoodies, with sizing and tags that make sense when you are the one selling them.
  • Company accounts. Your art, ink colors, and placement stay on file. Hire four people in the spring and one call runs the same shirts again, matched to the batch you already have.
  • Your blanks or ours. Already bought the workwear, or want a brand we do not stock? Bring the garments in. We check the fabric first and match the ink system to it, then print them with the same care as our own.

Send your logo, your headcount, and your deadline. You get an itemized quote and a recommended blank list back within the business day. Start a quote.

FAQ

Common questions about screen printing.

What is the minimum order for screen printing?
Twenty-four pieces, and you can mix sizes within the run. Print pricing gets better as the count climbs, so 24 is the floor, not the sweet spot. Under 24, give us a call and we will point you at the best option.
How much does screen printing cost?
Pricing comes down to the number of ink colors, the garment, and how many you need. Use our online calculator for an instant ballpark, or send your art and we return a full itemized quote within one business day. More shirts on the same run means a lower price per shirt.
Is there a setup fee?
New designs have a one-time setup, quoted up front with your order. Once your art is on file, reorders of the same design skip that work.
How long does screen printing take?
Standard turnaround is five business days once you approve the mockup. Rush is often possible when the job kicks off early in the week. If you have a hard deadline, tell us up front and we will give you a straight answer on whether we can hit it.
What can you print on?
T-shirts, tanks, long sleeves, crewnecks, hoodies, and workwear, with front, back, sleeve, and oversized print locations. We supply blanks from every major catalog, and garments you bring in are welcome too.
What inks do you print with?
Plastisol for bold, durable color, plus water-based and discharge inks for a soft print you barely feel. We recommend the system that fits your fabric and the look you are after, and explain the tradeoffs before you commit.
Can you match my exact brand color?
Yes. We mix ink against a physical Pantone book and check it on the actual garment color before the run starts. The mix is recorded with your order, so reorders come out the same.
Can I bring my own shirts or hoodies?
Yes, bring-your-own blanks are welcome. We check the fabric first and match the ink system to it, so the print holds on what you brought.
How fast can I reorder?
Once your art is on file, reorders are usually 3 to 5 business days from your go-ahead to pickup. Your ink colors and placement are saved, so the new batch matches the last one.
Do you print work shirts and uniforms for companies?
Yes, and it is a big share of what runs here. Hi-vis and safety shirts for field crews, work shirts, corporate polos, and branded tees for the front office. Send your logo and a headcount and you get an itemized quote and a blank recommendation back within the business day.
Do you print for businesses outside Hollister?
Yes. The press sits in Hollister, and most weeks shirts leave here bound for job sites and offices in Salinas, Watsonville, Gilroy, Morgan Hill, San Jose, Santa Cruz, and Monterey. Pick up at the barn or we ship anywhere in the country.
Can you run screen printing and embroidery on the same order?
Yes, and plenty of orders do exactly that. Printed safety tees for the field and embroidered polos for the office, quoted together and invoiced once. Tell us the split when you send your art.
Is there a screen printing shop near me on the Central Coast?
If you are in San Benito County, the Monterey Bay, or south Santa Clara County, this one is probably the closest press to you. We are at 7600 Fairview Road in Hollister, open weekdays 8 AM to 4 PM. Come by, or call (831) 821-3582 and we will sort it out over the phone.
Can we reorder when we hire someone new?
That is the easy one. After the first run your art, ink colors, and placement live on file. Call with a size breakdown and the new batch runs matched to the last one, with no new setup on the same design.
