Printed apparel for schools & education
School trip T-shirts, safety vests, polos for teachers, hoodies for graduation classes, and bucket hats for school camp. We handle it from design to delivery — tailored to the school year and parent payments.
What we make for schools
School trip & class outing T-shirts
Identical shirts make an outing both organised and fun. Printed with school logo, class name, year or destination theme. From 25 pieces upward, cost-effective with screen printing.
Safety vests
Yellow or orange vests with print — for crossing brigades, school trips or supervisors. Adult and child sizes.
Polos for teachers and staff
School identity on polos or T-shirts. With embroidered school logo for a professional look.
Hoodies & sweaters for graduating classes
“Class of 1980” or “Final exams 1980” — a lasting memento. Often with classmates’ names on the back.
Caps and bucket hats for school camp
Practical for sun protection, group recognition, and a fun keepsake for pupils.
Sports bags and school bags
Printed bags for sports day, school trips or farewell gifts.
Which print technique fits best?
How we work with schools
Practical and flexible. We understand schools don’t work like businesses:
- Sizing per pupil — we deliver with name lists and sort by class
- Lead time matched to the school year — order in January for a June trip? No problem
- Parent payments — we can invoice the school or set up an online ordering page where parents pay directly (on request)
- Low barriers — just request a quote, even if you don't know exactly what you want yet
- Realistic budget — school trip shirts don't need designer quality; we advise what fits the per-pupil budget
Tips for school projects
Order well in advance:
For a June school trip: order by April. For graduation/farewell: 6 weeks ahead.
Keep the design simple:
With many pupils, a simple design (1–2 colours) keeps the unit price low.
Order a few extras:
Reserve 5–10% extra in common sizes. Children sometimes don’t fit quite what you expected — a few spares prevent disappointment.
Combine where possible:
School trip shirts plus farewell hoodies plus safety vests — ordered together, handling is more efficient and advice more complete.
Frequently asked questions
For screen printing: from 25 pieces. For DTF transfer (smaller runs or full-colour): from 1 piece. We advise what’s cost-effective in your case.
Yes, with DTF transfer that’s straightforward. Send us a list of names and sizes and we’ll handle the rest.
Depending on textile and quantity, between €5 and €12 per piece including printing, for standard quality and a 1–2 colour logo. Request a quote for an exact price.
We can facilitate this with a temporary online ordering page where parents pay directly. Ask about the options.
EN ISO 20471 applies to the vest itself — our print doesn’t need to comply. We can supply certified vests; ask specifically if the municipality or school requires it.
Yes. If the design and order stay the same, we use the same digital file from our archive. Repeat orders are usually faster and cheaper.
Yes. We work with brands like Stanley/Stella, Continental and Mantis for organic-cotton T-shirts and hoodies, with PVC-free inks. Ask for the sustainable options in the quote — usually a few euros more per piece, but a good story for the school.
With ample planning (6+ weeks): yes. For rush: usually also, if design and textile are approved quickly. Email us if the date is tight.
