Im looking to have some jerseys done for a group of friends and I was hoping you guys might be able to suggest a print shop. Price isnt nearly as important as quality. Anybody with positive experiences out there? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: the only shop I really know of is Animal. I like to shop around though.

Thanks for looking.

Eye 2 eye are great.

Great Lakes Rangers have them, Team WoW, some others I have seen, great service , good prices, great product. No minimum order ( though a discount for bulk), can get completely individual Jerseys

Note: order 1 size larger than you would normally buy

My big issue is that I want to use DYE jerseys. Most of the shops seem to use lower level jerseys with little or no padding.

Edit: I do see they option one with some internal padding.

Make your own? Support a local tailor? Not sure how much making your own would run though.

Tanked jerseys and pants are one of the most durable pieces of paintball apparel I have heard about. But I think its $125 for the pants and something like $65 for the jersey. But its top quality stuff.

Good luck,

Our team used Eye2Eye also. I agree with the above BUT recommend 2 sizes up and have the sleeves made to your measurements. The owner is great to work with and keeps in communication with you. There is also no setup or art fees. He'll make what you want the way you want it.

Thanks for the leads guys. I will definitely check into both.

AnimalPB... They've treated me right through 3 teams worth of jerseys, woods and speed alike.

ditto on the 2 sizes up suggestion. they run about a size and a half small.
also: the kill kenny fabric is rugged tough! but not so comfy on the skin.
the adrenaline fabric is great on the skin (just like underarmor) , but not so good in the woods w/ pulls and twiggies.

Ive run 5 orders through eye2eye and pleased everytime. I highly recommend following up emails w/ phone calls.

adrenaline


kill kenny -- we used a soccer style of these and got them for < $24 ea shipped.

I have one animal jersey, two CSG (custom sports gear) jersey and an eye2eye jersey.

The CSG is the thickest material, by far. Then eye2eye, then animal.

They all do good print quality

Customer service with CSG and animal is "mediocre" at best. Both take multiple attempts and numerous phone calls to reach them or get a reply on anything. Never directly dealt with eye2eye so i can't comment on them. But both animal and csg were a pain in the butt. To the point that my team captain wouldn't use them again unless we had to, as he did all the communication.

I thought the animal was the worst of the three, for numerous reasons. Not only was getting in contact bad, first they sewed the sleeves on backwards. Which isn't a horrible thing, but it ended up putting the American flag on backwards, so it looked like it was retreating from battle. Very disgraceful. We would not wear those. They said we ordered them like that. We pulled out the proofs they mailed us and proved them wrong. Had to send em all back. Get em a week and a half later.

Then two of our jerseys fell apart within the first use of them on the field, like stitching came undone all the way up the side on one, the other tore deeply, like 6+ inches on a basic dive, wasn't clipped on any trees or anything, was a speedball course. Getting them to repair them was troublesome to say the least. First they didn't want to fix them. Then we said, fine can we buy new ones...We were basically told no they don't do single orders of jerseys. We needed to order 13 more. Yeah. We never went back to them, not worth our time. We have heard their service has gotten better, but we are still bitter over that whole ordeal.

IMHO CSG jerseys are the highest quality, thickest material. But i don't know if you want to deal with their customer service. I love my eye2eye jersey, though it is a bit thinner. It breathes well.
