Military and unit orders can be built around a deployment, event, milestone, morale project, reunion or everyday unit identity. Choose an occasion to see apparel, coins, patches and other products that can be combined around the project.

Deployments

Build the Project Around the Deployment

Deployment T-Shirts Screen printed or DTF shirts built around the deployment artwork.
Hoodies & Sweatshirts Great for cooler locations, travel and off-duty unit apparel.
Challenge Coins Include dates, locations, mottos and unit-specific details.

Build a Full Deployment Set Combine shirts, hats, coins and patches around one shared design theme.
Change of Command

Create Something That Marks the Transition

Change-of-command projects can recognize outgoing leadership, welcome incoming leadership or commemorate the event itself. The design can be formal and traditional or built around the specific personality of the unit.

Commemorative Coins A lasting piece tied directly to the command transition.

Not Every Unit Design Has to Be Formal

Morale T-Shirts Custom artwork built around unit humor, identity or shared experiences.
DTF Shirts Great for detailed artwork, smaller runs or multiple designs.

Retirement & Recognition

Make the Project About the Person Being Recognized

Retirement and recognition orders can reflect the person's career, command, unit history, rank, dates of service and the people they served with. These projects work best when the details are specific to the individual.

Recruiting & Outreach

Products That Help the Unit Show Up Consistently

Recruiting, public events and outreach projects often need more than one type of branded item. Apparel can identify staff while smaller promotional products give visitors something they can take with them.

Teams & Departments

Give Smaller Groups Their Own Identity

Team Patches Build a patch around the identity of the smaller group.
