New Blends for a New Year

PosiCharge tri-blend wicking raglan tees display.


New catalogs, new styles, and new blends! All of our vendors are rolling out the new stuff and over the next couple of weeks we will be highlighting these items. Well some of them anyway. There is way too many for us to show you all of them but we are updating the E-Catalogs section regularly so you can stay up to date with the latest offerings.

Various color options for a moisture-wicking T-shirt with front and back views.

This is for those of you that love the wicking option but hate the feel of polyester. This tee is a blend of 75% poly/13% cotton/12% rayon and at 4.4 oz perfect for use as performance gear for your team or everyday wear for your crew that works outside during the warm months. On the plus side for us it is easy to screen print  and the posicharge technology helps lock in the ink color of the print so the tees look better longer.

Models showcasing colorful, cosmic-themed shirts from the Astro Cosmic collection.

District Made introduces their Astro Cosmic collection. It blends 60% cotton with 40% poly to make this lightweight 4.3 ounce tee soft and breathable. The intermixing of colors steps it up a notch to add depth to the overall look.

Men's and women's casual outfits made from a soft cotton/poly/linen fabric blend.

Port Authority is introducing their Coastal Cotton Blend polos. The new polos have a  soft, laid-back look that is designed to perform. This style fights odors, wicks moisture, and resists snags and wrinkles. At 5 ounces with a blend of 50% cotton/42.5%poly/7.5 linen it is the perfect polo for the office or job site.

Because the items are new they have not all been uploaded to our website. But as always if you see something you like send a message and we will get you the information or samples that you need.

New Year New Era

New Era 2018 apparel collection cover.


We have been looking forward to this  since the fall.

This catalog introduces New Era apparel with over 40 tees, sweatshirts, polos, jerseys and jackets. Athleisure never looked so good.

And you should check out the new hat styles. We have been embroidering  a lot of the New Era Interception Hat NE1100. It is a great hat that works for sports teams or corporate apparel. The gray top keeps it neutral and the splash of color under the brim works with just about any brand colors.

Samples of New Era gear should be arriving in this month so keep a look out for them.

Creative Interlude with Color Palettes

Blue beach huts with color palette.


I just turned the air conditioner on for the first time in 2017. In honor of this event and the fact that its is a beautiful day here in Portsmouth I thought I would share some summer color palettes. If your brand can change color based on season or if you are starting a brand that requires bright summery colors these palettes may strike a chord.

This website is a great resource for anyone who loves to play with color, needs to find new color combos  or needs a break from the work day and can use a little inspiration. I can look at this website and tell Dale I am working…really working hard….

Happy First Air Conditioner Day of 2017. I think this should be come a thing.

Backpacks for Commuters

Gray backpack with blue logo and leaf.


It is so much easier to work from home these days. Unless you run an embroidery shop then not so much…those machines are way to heavy to carry anywhere! But for a lot of folks bringing home the lap top is a way of life. As long as you have to (or want to) do it why not make a stylish statement with it.

Black backpack with a circular logo on the front pocket.

Brown backpack with leather straps and metal buckles.

Gray backpack with APC logo and red design.

A stylish two-tone backpack with beige and black colors.

Backpacks are a highly visible  way of getting your brand out there.  More important it is a product guaranteed to be used; not tucked away in some dark spot in the far corner of a desk collecting dust.

Besides being perfect for your employee’s everyday use  they also can be used to highlight employee achievements, work anniversaries, or used as an appreciation gift for your top clients. Going on a corporate outing, retreat, or trade show? The backpacks can be stuffed with other goodies and become  another  way to make your brand seen.

UPDATE 2.10.17

We hope everyone weathered Niko without incident.

Well it is currently raining here at the shop. Go figure….60 degrees yesterday blizzard warning today. Ah New England we love ya.

We are here until the snow starts to fly for any pick ups or orders. We will be checking e-mails through out the day so feel free to e-mail either Dale or me.

We will update this Blog post and our Facebook Page should something change and let you know what is happening tomorrow.

Unless Niko takes out power…then just stay indoors and be cozy.

Be safe.
