This page provides information on our custom line, the Thea Collection :)
How are THEA Products Made?
Our THEA Collection is made by custom making your garment from scratch and then printing your design on your custom garment! In the fashion world, this unique production process typically takes 1 year. Here at Campus Tees, we are able to condense this process down to 5 weeks for your organization.
Because this is a much more custom & extensive process compared to screen printing on blanks, pricing tends to reflect that.
What are the benefits to Custom Made Merch?
For the past 20 years in Greek Apparel, printing on blanks (Gildan, Comfort Colors, Bella + Canvas, etc) has been the standard. While this is still a great choice, it limits your chapter to preselected blanks, that are typically less trendy than the merch you would see in fashion world. Think Edikted, Zara, White Fox, Princess Polly.
What our THEA Collection allows is for chapters to wear trendy garments without being limited to just the basics.
Contrast binding tank top with side trims? You got it.
Off shoulder tee? You got it.
Our curated styles are based on current trend research, and allows for your chapter to stand out for events and be the trend leaders on campus. The quality of the fabric we use allows for your members to wear the piece long after the event day.
What should I be aware of with THEA Orders?
Because fabrics and trims are sourced live for your custom order, there are a couple things chapters should be aware of.
- Custom Made Orders are subject to slight imperfections such as trim or lace being a slightly different shade, slight differences in pattern, and slight variation from garment to garment.
- We do our very best to source the best quality fabrics for your chapter, however, condensing a 1 year sampling process down to 5 weeks comes with its challenges. Pieces will be of high quality, however, there may be slight variance between actual product vs. mock up, due to computer screen differences etc.
We recommend starting your Thea Collection order well before the 5 week mark so that we can get the ball rolling on production :)
