Gear That Holds Up.
Screen printing, embroidery, DTF, and full team stores, all run in our own South El Monte shop. Pick one, or just tell us about the job and we will point you the right way.
01
Screen Printing
36 Piece Minimum
Bold, durable prints that hold up wash after wash. The go-to for big event and crew orders, and the price per piece drops as the run grows.
See Screen Print Pricing02
Embroidery
12 Piece Minimum
A clean stitched finish on custom embroidered hats, polos, and jackets that looks sharp up close and lasts for years.
See Embroidery Pricing03
DTF Printing
Any Color
Full-color transfers that handle fine detail and gradients screen printing cannot. Great for smaller runs with complex art.

Online Team Stores
Built For Groups
A private online store for your team or event. Everyone picks their own size and pays for their own order, so you are not chasing sizes or money.
Start A Team StoreOur Story
Why Blue Cactus Exists.
Too many businesses get burned on custom apparel. Deadlines slip. The print comes back uneven. And just placing the order turns into a back-and-forth nobody has time for.
We built Blue Cactus to take that off your plate. You get straight answers, a real timeline, and apparel your team is glad to put on. One embroidered polo or a few thousand event shirts, the same crew here in South El Monte runs it.

Working with Blue Cactus was easy and efficient from start to finish. I needed 33 custom Nike hoodies for our team's end-of-season banquet, and Daniel and his team delivered a great-looking final product. I sent over a design concept, and they brought it to life exactly how I envisioned it. I also really appreciated that the order was completed several days earlier than the original quoted date.

We recently worked with Blue Cactus Printing to pull together a very last minute t-shirt order for a youth summit for our organization. They were able to deliver 300 tshirts with our organization logo on them on a very tight turnaround. The tshirts were great quality, they were responsive, thoughtful and supportive on this rush order.

We recently placed an order with Dan for custom hoodies with a short deadline. They were able to accommodate the timing, including a few edits on the design, with no problem. The order was 100% accurate and reasonably priced. Our employees loved the hoodies. I would reach back out to Blue Cactus in a heartbeat.

Daniel and Blue Cactus are the best! I ordered shirts for our middle school wrestling program and the process was super easy. They came up with a great design and printed on high quality shirts. I would recommend Blue Cactus to anybody in the area looking for great apparel at a great price with great service!

I recently ordered a large amount of polos for my middle school music program. I ordered them fairly close to my performance and Daniel and the team were great in getting the order set up and shipped out in plenty of time for our concert! The polos are high quality with beautiful stitching of our school logo.
