Custom Apparel Printing Services in Cheektowaga, NY
Founded in June 2007 by Jeffrey Sawyer, The Shirt Guy began as a small retail space in Cheektowaga, NY, dedicated to providing high-quality printed garments at affordable prices. Initially offering pre-designed garments, the business quickly pivoted to focus on custom printing after recognizing customer demand for personalized designs. In 2010, we expanded to a 5,000-square-foot location at 3501 Harlem Road, enabling us to stock a broader selection of blank garments while maintaining our commitment to quality and service. Our expertise lies in printing photos, artwork, or custom designs on apparel, with the flexibility to fulfill orders ranging from a single shirt to 10,000 units.We pride ourselves on exceeding customer expectations through personalized service and attention to detail. Our store mascot, Kramer the Shirt Bird, symbolizes our approachable, community-focused ethos, having been named Employee of the Month for 38 consecutive months. The business name and logo originated from founder Jeffrey Sawyers early experiences selling shirts in Buffalos low-income neighborhoods, where he earned the nickname 'Shirt Guy' while developing his screen-printing expertise. Today, we remain a trusted destination for custom apparel, blending technical skill with a deep understanding of customer needs.
