Custom Sport-Tek Performance Wear, Decorated in Kennesaw
Sport-Tek is the line you reach for when the gear has to move with the wearer and survive the wash cycle that follows. Moisture-wicking knits, athletic cuts, and color that does not fade after a season of practices make it a favorite for active groups. At Panda Prints in Kennesaw, GA, we decorate Sport-Tek blanks like the PosiCharge Competitor Tee (ST350) and the brand’s performance polos with embroidery and DTF printing. Whether you run a youth league in Acworth, a CrossFit box in Marietta, or a field crew working across north metro Atlanta, we pair the right decoration to the right garment so your mark stays crisp through every game, workout, and shift.
Sport-Tek is a SanMar house brand, which means we source it directly. You do not have to hunt down blanks or place a separate wholesale order. Tell us the style, the colors, and the sizes, and we handle the rest. Prefer to bring your own Sport-Tek pieces? That works too, as long as they are new and unworn.
Embroidery or DTF: Picking the Right Method
The two methods chase different results on athletic gear. Embroidery threads your artwork right into the knit, leaving a textured, dimensional logo that reads as polished and built to last. It is the natural pick for company polos, coaching jackets, and any piece where a clean, corporate-grade look matters more than big graphics. We also handle 3D puff embroidery, monogramming, and individual name-drops, so every player or staff member can carry their own name without paying a fresh setup each time.
DTF (direct-to-film) printing presses a full-color transfer onto the garment. It is the better choice for Sport-Tek performance tees and athletic shirts where you want bright, detailed artwork, gradients, or photo-style graphics. DTF bonds cleanly to the polyester knit of a tee like the ST350, and we never tack on a setup fee for it. On lightweight performance fabrics, DTF lays down vivid color without the heft that heavy stitching can add.
What We Decorate Most
Local teams and businesses keep coming back for the same Sport-Tek staples. Here are the pieces and projects we see most:
- PosiCharge Competitor Tees (ST350) printed with DTF for team rosters and gym apparel
- Sport-Tek performance polos embroidered with a left-chest company logo
- Athletic tees with full-color front graphics and small back name-drops
- Embroidered polos with stacked logo and employee name for trade and field staff
- Matching team sets that mix DTF tees for players and embroidered polos for coaches
Pricing, Turnaround, and How It Works
Pricing is plain and posted before you commit. DTF Sport-Tek tees begin at $10 each, while embroidered shirts, polos, and jackets begin at $20 each. Order a single tee for one new hire or a full roster of fifty: we hold no minimums either way. Setting up a new embroidery logo runs a one-time digitizing charge from $40, and that charge drops off entirely when you reorder the exact same design. DTF carries no setup fee at all. We collect the full amount when the order is placed, with no deposit splitting, and we accept cash, card, and ACH.
Once your proof is approved, most Sport-Tek orders are finished within 3 to 5 business days. Working against a tournament date or a team photo day? Ask about rush production, and we will quote the added fee based on what the run requires. Our shop is home-based here in Kennesaw, so stop by during open hours if you like, though a heads-up call or text before you drive over keeps things smooth. When the order is done, take your pick of local pickup, shipping, or delivery, whatever lines up best with your schedule.
We work with teams and businesses throughout Kennesaw, Cobb County, and the wider north metro Atlanta footprint, Acworth and Marietta included. Want to picture your design on a specific Sport-Tek style before you decide? Send over the logo and we will mock it up first. Every order stands behind our refund and return policy, so you know exactly where you stand before you pay.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does custom Sport-Tek decoration cost in Kennesaw?
DTF-printed Sport-Tek tees start at $10 a piece, and embroidered Sport-Tek shirts, polos, and jackets start at $20 a piece. There are no minimums, so a single piece is fine. New embroidery logos run a one-time digitizing fee from $40, and we waive that on exact reorders. DTF has no setup fee and no per-color charge, even for full-color art.
Should I choose embroidery or DTF for Sport-Tek?
It comes down to the garment and the look you’re after. Embroidery stitches your design into the fabric for a textured, dimensional finish that wears well on performance polos and jackets. DTF is the better call for performance tees like the PosiCharge Competitor when you want bright, full-color, detailed graphics on lightweight polyester. Tell us the piece and the art, and we’ll point you to the right method.
Can Panda Prints supply the Sport-Tek blanks, or do I bring my own?
Either way works. Sport-Tek is a SanMar brand, so we order it directly. Just give us the style number, colors, and sizes and we’ll quote it. If you’d rather bring your own Sport-Tek garments, we can decorate those too, as long as they’re new and unworn.
What is the turnaround on a custom Sport-Tek order?
Standard turnaround is 3 to 5 business days once you approve the proof. We started this business because every shop quoted me 14 to 21 days for 5 shirts, so fast turnaround is the whole point of Panda. Rush is case-by-case, sometimes next business day when the queue allows, charged at a premium with no fixed rate. If you’ve got a hard date like a tournament or team photo day, reach out early and we’ll sort it.
Is there a minimum order for custom Sport-Tek apparel?
No, we hold no minimums on any order. Order one Sport-Tek tee or polo, or outfit a whole team or company. Payment is in full when the order is placed, and we take cash, card, and ACH. Nothing gets made until you approve a digital mockup first.
Can you add individual names to Sport-Tek team apparel?
Yes, we do individual name-drops and monogramming so each player or staff member gets their own name on the garment. We can also do 3D puff embroidery for a bolder, raised look on polos and other pieces. Send over the name list and the spots you want it, and I’ll mock it up before anything runs. Local pickup, shipping, and delivery options are available, and we’ll work out the best one for your order.
