Design ideas
- "Recruitment" with the year and the week's schedule on the back
- A bright color that stands out across a quad or a hallway
- A QR code on the back that opens the chapter's sign-up form — we check it scans on the proof
When to order
Two to three weeks before recruitment starts. With rush production (2 business days) about one week can work if the proof is approved the same day. Standard orders print 4 business days after you approve the free proof; rush is 2 business days for $50 flat; ground shipping takes 2–5 business days.
About Greek letters and school names
Greek letters, crests and fraternity, sorority and university names are trademarks of the organizations that own them, and most require a licensed vendor for anything that carries them. Harborside is not a licensed Greek or collegiate vendor, so we print chapter designs without them — event names and dates, philanthropy and sponsor shirts, intramural team names, chapter-drawn art and slogans. Not sure about a design? Send it and we will tell you before you pay.
Questions chapters ask
How much do 40 recruitment shirts cost?
$520 as Gildan 5000, front + back; $800 as Comfort Colors 1717, left chest + back. Shipped free, no setup fees.
Can we get them faster?
Yes — rush prints in 2 business days after proof approval instead of 4, for $50 flat: 40 are $570 rushed.
Can you print Greek letters or our crest?
No. Letters, crests and fraternity and school names are trademarks that need a licensed vendor, and we are not one. We print event names, team names, chapter-drawn art and sponsors.
Can each member pay for his own?
Yes — a free group store collects sizes and payments; we print one order when it closes (12-piece minimum).
