Contractor & Trade Professional Uniforms | Work Gear That Actually Lasts
Look, you beat the hell out of your work clothes. You need gear that lasts, prices that make sense, and someone who gets it. Call Nick at (812) 537-3461 – I outfit half the contractors in southern Indiana.
True story – last month a roofing crew switched to us after their previous shirts fell apart in two weeks. Two weeks! Now they’re in Carhartt tees that actually survive nail guns, tar, and Indiana weather.
What Contractors Actually Order
After outfitting trades for years, here’s what works:
The Summer Survivor Package
- Moisture-wicking tees (because August is brutal)
- UV protection built in
- Bright safety colors available
- Won’t stink after day 3
The Year-Round Workhorse
- Heavy cotton tees for durability
- Long sleeves for sun/scratch protection
- Hoodies that actually keep you warm
- Beanies for those 6am starts
Check out our hoodie options – we’ve got everything from basic to Carhartt.
Why Contractors Trust Us
You know what pisses me off? When print shops treat contractors like they don’t matter. “Oh, you just need work shirts.” Just? Your crew is building this town. You deserve gear that works as hard as you do.
What we do different:
- Tough printing: Won’t crack, fade, or peel
- Real work brands: Carhartt, Dickies, Port Authority
- Safety compliance: Hi-vis, reflective options
- Pocket prints: For that professional touch
- Quick reorders: New guy starts Monday? No problem
Pricing That Won’t Kill Your Margins
Here’s the deal – I know you’re watching every dollar. You bid jobs tight. We get it.
Typical contractor pricing:
- Basic work tees: $12-18 with one-color print
- Moisture-wicking: $18-25
- Long sleeves: $15-22
- Hoodies: $28-45
- Carhartt/premium: $35-55
Order more, save more. But no crazy minimums – need 3 shirts for your crew? Done.
The Seasonal Game Plan
Smart contractors order seasonally. Here’s what works:
Spring Order (March):
- Light tees for the crew
- Polos for estimates/meetings
- Hats for sun protection
Summer Refresh (June):
- Moisture-wicking everything
- Extra tees (they get destroyed)
- Safety yellow/orange options
Fall Prep (September):
- Hoodies and long sleeves
- Beanies for cold mornings
- Fleece for the tough guys who “don’t get cold”
Need professional polos for client meetings? We’ve got you covered there too.
Real Contractor Solutions
The “New Hire” System
Keep 2-3 blank shirts on hand. When someone new starts, we add their name/number in 24 hours. No more “where’s my uniform?” BS.
The “Company Truck” Look
Matching your truck wraps? We color-match exactly. Your crew looks like they belong to your company, not like random guys who showed up.
The “Wife Runs the Office” Special
Different shirts for field vs. office. Because your office manager shouldn’t be wearing the same muddy gear as the crew.
Trades We Work With Daily
- Roofers (tough sons of guns)
- Concrete crews (stain-resistant options)
- Landscapers (breathable fabrics)
- Painters (white tees all day)
- HVAC techs (professional polos)
- Electricians (FR options available)

Your trade not listed? We probably do it. Check out more business apparel options.
The “Keep It Simple” Approach
You don’t have time for complicated. Here’s our process:
- You call: (812) 537-3461
- Tell me: crew size, type of work, budget
- I suggest what actually works
- Approve design (usually your truck logo)
- Pick up gear in a week
Need it faster? Bring coffee and we’ll figure it out.
Common Questions from Contractors
“Can you match my company colors?”
Yes. Bring a sample, we’ll match it.
“What about name personalization?”
Above the pocket, on the sleeve, wherever. Small upcharge.
“Do you have safety gear?”
Hi-vis, reflective strips, ANSI compliant. Whatever OSHA wants.
“What if shirts get ruined?”
Reorder anytime. Keep your logo on file forever.

P.S. – That roofing crew I mentioned? They just ordered winter gear. Said their old printer went out of business. Guess being cheap only works until it doesn’t.
