Our Story

It all started in April of 2008. Chris and Bob decided to have some t-shirts printed for a website that they were launching. About 300 shirts would do.

"You know, t-shirts are fun. Everyone wears them. We should really get into that business."

Quickly, they found out how complicated the entire process could be. No one really wanted to give them prices over the phone without seeing the artwork. All this talk about "screen fees" and "vector artwork" and "PMS colors" was enough to drive anyone crazy.

But something about putting a ton of trust into some unknown, online company, didn't really sound that appealing. What if their shirts were messed up? Would they be stuck high and dry?

Bob and Chris decided to build a company from the ground up that catered to people who may have never ordered t-shirts before. They strived to be the best in the industry.

"Maybe we can go online?", they thought.

Their efforts were concentrated on simplifying the ordering process. Educating the customer was key, along with providing a great value for quality work.

The decision to keep their business customer centric was a good one. We're proud to say that Cincy Apparel is one of the fastest growing custom t-shirt printing companies in Cincinnati.
