Personalizing your order
How do I add names, numbers or dates to my shirt?
Choose your design, garment, colour and size, add it to the cart, then go to checkout. You will find an order notes box there. Type the names, numbers, dates or short text exactly as you want them printed. That is the only step: no apps, no design tool, no uploads at checkout.
How do I add a photo for a photo design?
In the order notes, paste a link to the photo (for example a shared link from your cloud photo storage). Or write “photo by email” in the notes and email the photo to support@teetopia.shop with your order number. Bright, sharp photos taken in daylight print best. We use your photo only for your order and delete it 30 days after delivery.
Will I see a proof or mockup before you print?
No. We do not send proofs or mockups. We print exactly what is written in your order notes, so please check spelling, capitals and dates carefully. If you spot a mistake, email us within 24 hours of ordering and we will fix it before printing.
How should I write names for a group order?
Add each item to the cart in order, then list them in the notes the same way, one per line: “Adult L – DAD”, “Adult M – MOM”, “Youth S – LEO”. Add the shared text once at the top, for example “Front: THE GARCIA CREW – REUNION 2027”. Clear lists mean every name lands on the right size.
Can I use capital letters, accents or emojis?
Capitals and accented letters (like José or Zoë) are fine; write them the way you want them. Emojis do not print reliably, so please describe a symbol in words instead, such as “small heart after the name”, and we will use the design’s lettering style.
How long can a name or phrase be?
Shorter is bolder. On tees and sweatshirts, one or two short lines work best; on hats, one to three short words. If your text is long, we print it smaller to fit the design’s text area. Unsure? Email us before ordering.
Can you print my company, school or team logo?
Only if you own it or have written permission from the owner. We do not print other people’s logos, characters or artwork. We are happy to print your team name, crew name and numbers in our own lettering. See our Intellectual Property Policy.
Can different people on one order have different names?
Yes, that is what most family and team orders look like. Put the shared design text once, then list each item as “size – name” in the same order as your cart. For example, twelve team hoodies with each player’s first name on the back is one order with twelve lines in the notes.
Can I put text on the front and the back?
Where a design shows a back or sleeve print area, yes: label your lines clearly in the notes, such as “Front: SECTION 114 CREW” and “Back: RILEY 7”. If a design only has a front print area, we print on the front only. Ask us before ordering if you are unsure about a particular design.
Can I order just one shirt?
Of course. There is no minimum order, and shipping is free even for a single tee or hat.
Can I order a shirt as a gift and send it straight to someone?
Yes. Enter the recipient’s name and address as the shipping address at checkout. Order emails go to you, the buyer. If the recipient needs a different size, they can return it within 60 days of delivery with the free label, and the refund goes back to you.
Sizes and garments
Should I size up for a hoodie?
Hoodies are cut roomier than tees. Stay with your usual size for a regular fit, or go one size up if you want an oversized look or plan to layer a long sleeve tee underneath.
What colours can I choose?
Each product page lists the garment colours available for that design. Printed colours can look slightly different on dark and light garments and on different screens.
How do I choose the right size?
Lay a shirt that fits well flat, measure across the chest from armpit to armpit and from shoulder to hem, then compare with the product page. Our Size Guide walks you through it step by step for tees, hoodies, sweatshirts and hats.
Do you have youth and plus sizes?
Many designs come in a wide size range, including youth sizes and larger adult sizes. The exact sizes for each item are listed on its product page.
What is the difference between a tee, a hoodie and a sweatshirt?
A tee is a short sleeve crew neck; a long sleeve tee adds sleeves (and sometimes room for a sleeve print). A hoodie is a pullover with a hood and a front pocket, usually roomier. A crewneck sweatshirt has no hood and ribbed cuffs and hem, so it sits closer to the body.
How do I care for my printed shirt?
Wash inside out in cold water, tumble dry low or hang dry, no bleach, and do not iron directly over the print. Hats: spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry on their shape.
Shipping and delivery
Where do you ship?
To the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Orders ship from the USA. Checkout only accepts addresses in these four countries.
How much is shipping?
Free, on every order, with no minimum.
How long will my order take?
We print and pack in 1-3 business days, then delivery takes about 7-14 business days to all four countries. Estimates are not guarantees; weather, holidays and customs can add time. Details on Shipping & Delivery.
I need shirts for an event. When should I order?
Count up to 3 business days of printing plus up to 14 business days in transit: roughly three and a half weeks. Ordering four weeks or more before your date leaves a cushion. We cannot promise delivery on a specific date.
How do I track my order?
Use the Order Tracking page with your order number and billing email. When your order ships, our shipping email includes a tracking link if the carrier provides one.
Will I pay customs duties?
We do not add sales tax at checkout at this time. For Canada, Australia and New Zealand, any import duties or taxes depend on the destination country’s rules on arrival. Check with your local customs office if you are unsure.
My parcel is late or says delivered but is not here. What now?
Check around the door, with neighbours and the mailroom first. If it is still missing, email us with your order number; we look into the tracking, contact the carrier where needed and keep you updated.
Changes, returns and refunds
Can I change or cancel my order?
Yes, within 24 hours of ordering, before printing. Email us with your order number and the change. Cancellations in that window are refunded in full within 7 days. See Cancel/Change Order.
Can I return a personalized shirt?
Yes. You can return any item within 60 days of delivery, including personalized items, and we send a free return label even for a change of mind.
How fast will I get my refund?
Within 7 days of us receiving your return, to your original payment method. You can ask for store credit instead; it never expires. Full details on the Refund Policy.
How do I swap a size?
Start a return for the item that does not fit and place a new order for the right size. Your new item is printed straight away, and the first one is refunded within 7 days of reaching us. Both directions ship free.
My shirt arrived damaged or with a misprint. What do I do?
Email us your order number and a couple of photos as soon as you notice. We will reprint the item or refund it, your choice. In most cases you do not need to send it back.
I made a typo in my order notes and noticed after 24 hours.
The shirt is printed as written, but our 60-day return still applies. Return it with the free label for a refund, then reorder with the corrected text.
Can I return part of a group order?
Yes. Return only the items that do not work, for example one Youth M from a set of twelve hoodies. Email us the list, we send one free label, and the refund for those items is issued within 7 days of receiving them.
Can I get store credit instead of a refund?
Yes, just ask when you start the return. Store credit never expires, which is handy for families and teams who reorder every year.
Payment and account
Which payment methods do you accept?
The available options are shown on the checkout page before you pay. All orders are charged in US dollars. See Payment Methods.
Is it safe to pay on teetopia.shop?
Yes. The whole site uses an encrypted HTTPS connection, and card details are handled by the payment provider. We never see or store your full card number, and we never ask for payment details by email.
Do I need an account to order?
No. You can check out as a guest. An account simply makes it easier to see past orders and reorder for next year’s reunion.
Do you keep my photos?
Only as long as needed: photos are used to print your order and deleted 30 days after delivery. See our Privacy Policy.
