## Ready to Own the Melbourne Streets?

Melbourne is the undisputed fashion capital of Australia. Walk down Chapel Street or wander through the graffiti-laden laneways of the CBD, and you will see it everywhere. Style. Hustle. Creativity. Everyone has a killer idea for a clothing brand, but most of those ideas stall because printing feels too hard, too slow, or too expensive.

We are here to change that. At So Boss, we make custom brand printing fast, easy, and built for momentum. Whether you are launching a streetwear line, printing merch for your band, or outfitting a new cafe in Fitzroy, we will help you move quickly without the usual hassle.

Need a print partner that can keep up? Good. We do exactly that.

You bring the vision. We handle the production. We are not just another print shop tucked away in an industrial estate. We are your support crew for fast-moving launches, test drops, and retail-ready apparel that looks sharp and arrives on time.

## The 10am Rule: Same-Day Magic

Need it fast? Good news. We have a clear lane for that.

Our Same Day service is designed for urgent jobs printed via DTG (Direct to Garment). The rule is simple: place your order, upload your artwork, and approve everything by 10am, and we will print and dispatch it the very same day.

No fluff. No vague promises. Just a clear cutoff and a fast turnaround you can plan around.

Order. Print. Ship.

That 10am cutoff is a real advantage for Melbourne brands. It gives you room to react, move quickly, and stay in control when demand spikes or event dates creep up fast.

But here is the key difference: not every print method fits the same-day lane. Our Full Range service covers methods like DTF and Screen Printing, and those orders run on a standard 5–14 business day production window (plus shipping).

Why? Because higher-end finishes, specialty setups, and bulk production need the proper time to get right. We move fast where it makes sense, but we do not rush premium or high-volume work just to call it "same day."

Worried about delays during peak periods? Fair question. Short answer: we have backup.

If Melbourne is running hot, we do not leave your order sitting in a queue. We can shift production through our Brisbane and Sydney hubs to keep things moving. That backup network helps protect your deadlines and keeps your brand moving when local demand surges.

Fast. Flexible. Reliable.

Our hubs are aligned to deliver the same So Boss quality and the same service-first support. If one location is under pressure, another can step in. That means less waiting, fewer headaches, and more confidence when your order matters most.

## Printing for Brands: Quality That Sells

When you are building a label, the print quality is your reputation. If the ink cracks after one wash or the colors look dull, your brand is toast. We get it. That is why we use industry-leading technology to ensure every garment looks retail-ready.

Want the quick version? Here it is:

Same Day = DTG (approved by 10am, printed and dispatched same day) Full Range = DTF / Screen Printing (standard 5–14 business day production window + shipping) Best method = job dependent (artwork, garment, quantity, finish, and deadline all matter)

From high-definition DTG (Direct to Garment) to durable DTF (Direct to Film) and scalable Screen Printing, we choose the best method for your specific design and order size. Your art deserves the right process, not just the fastest one.

We don't just "slap a logo" on a shirt. We treat every print like it’s going on a runway. We check the vibrancy, the feel, and the placement. Our team knows what looks good because we are obsessed with apparel ourselves.

Need premium finishes or larger quantities? Easy. That is exactly where the Full Range option shines. It takes longer than same-day DTG, but that standard production window is there for a reason: better setup, better consistency, better results.

Build. Print. Conquer.

One of the biggest hurdles for new Melbourne brands is the "Minimum Order Quantity" or MOQ. Most printers won't talk to you unless you are ordering 50 or 100 shirts. We think that's rubbish. How are you supposed to test a design or offer a limited run if you have to sit on $2,000 worth of stock? At So Boss, we have no minimum order requirements for our digital printing services. You want one shirt? You get one shirt.

This "No MOQ" approach is perfect for the startup phase. It allows you to be lean and mean. You can print-on-demand, test new colorways, or create custom pieces for influencers without any financial risk. As your brand grows (and we know it will), we can easily scale with you into bulk orders. We are here for the journey from the first prototype to the thousandth sale. Small. Medium. Large.

## Bulk Orders for the Big Moves

Once your brand catches fire, you are going to need volume. When you are ready to scale, our bulk printing capabilities are ready to roll. We offer competitive pricing for larger runs while keeping expectations clear. Whether it is a full range of tees for a Melbourne pop-up shop or uniforms for a massive event, we can handle the load. For many bulk orders, especially DTF and Screen Printing, production runs on our standard 5–14 business day window so the finish, consistency, and setup are done properly.

We streamline the bulk process to ensure every single piece in a 500-unit order looks exactly like the first sample. Consistency is key when you are selling to the public. We maintain strict quality control standards so that your customers get exactly what they paid for. Fast. Accurate. Reliable.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I make sure I hit the 10am cutoff?** Just ensure your order is placed and your artwork is uploaded and approved by 10am Melbourne time. That cutoff applies to eligible Same Day DTG orders. DTF and Screen Printing sit under our Full Range service and follow the standard 5–14 business day production window (plus shipping). (Pro tip: have your files ready in high-res PNG format with a transparent background for the fastest processing!)

**What kind of garments do you stock?** We stock a wide range of premium blanks including tees, hoodies, sweaters, and even totes. We only use brands that we would wear ourselves, ensuring your label feels high-end from the first touch.

**Can you print on the front and back?** Absolutely. We can do front, back, and even some sleeve placements. If you have a specific vision, just let us know and we will tell you the best way to make it happen.

**What if my artwork isn't perfect?** We recommend using high-quality files, but if we see something that looks like it won't print well (like a blurry low-res image), we will reach out and let you know. We want you to look good.

**Do you ship outside of Melbourne?** Yes! While we are focusing on crushing it in Melbourne, we ship Australia-wide. Whether your customers are in Perth, Adelaide, or out in the bush, we can get your brand to them.
