Port & Company PC61 Essential Tee with your design
The PC61 is the shirt most of our Reno orders are printed on. It is a heavyweight 6.1-ounce cotton tee that holds a print, survives a jobsite or a festival weekend, and costs $6.04 blank. Battle Born Clothing prints, presses and embroiders it in-house. We consider it quite a bit better than Gildan at the same money.
From $10.04 each at 80+ (embroidered); $10.63 1-color print at 48

What a PC61 custom tee costs
The number most Reno buyers ask for: 48 black PC61 tees with a 1-color front print are $10.63 each all-in plus a $20 screen. Add a 1-color back and it is $15.22 each plus $40 in screens. That is $6.04 for the blank, $4.34 per print location, and a $0.25 flash per location because the shirt is dark. On a white or light shirt the flash drops off. Full math is on the pricing page.

Decoration options
Screen print (1 to 3 colors, front and back) is the usual pick at 48 and up. DTF, quoted per job, handles full-color art and runs under 48. Left-chest embroidery turns the PC61 into a work shirt with no minimum. Battle Born Clothing does all three; see decoration for how each one holds up.
Best uses
- Company and crew tees for Reno contractors and warehouse employers
- Event and fundraiser shirts at 48 to 500 pieces
