DTG printing in Chicago, the Midwest, and nationwide

Inkdnylon Custom Apparel provides direct-to-garment printing for organizations across Chicago, the surrounding suburbs, and key Midwest markets including Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Missouri. Our DTG workflows are built for production: calibrated pretreat for light and dark garments, controlled curing for durability, and color-managed files to preserve gradients, photos, and fine detail. If you need fast, flexible decoration for a team drop, a limited collection, or a corporate event, DTG removes the bottlenecks that come with screens, separations, and per-color charges.

DTG is ideal for small to mid-volume orders where quality and turnaround matter. You can launch a new design with confidence, test a market without overbuying inventory, and reorder as needed with consistent results. We stock and source blanks from Bella+Canvas, Gildan, and Next Level Apparel, with options that balance hand feel, color, and budget. Chicago customers can pick up locally; Midwest and United States clients receive reliable shipping and proactive updates, keeping projects on schedule. Every file is checked for resolution, placement, and contrast so the printed outcome matches your intent.

Use the instant quote calculator above to estimate unit pricing by quantity and print area. Mark the locations you need and the setup fee calculates automatically—$50 for one location and $10 for each additional location, applied once per order. If your program spans multiple garment types or special placements, our team will align final pricing to your specifications and deadlines. When you are ready to move beyond screen printing constraints but still demand crisp, retail-quality results, Inkdnylon’s DTG printing supports Chicago storefronts, Midwest distributors, and nationwide brands with dependable color, soft hand, and streamlined logistics.
