Custom rally towels questions, answered.
Everything buyers ask before they order — minimums, timings, artwork and print options.
What is the minimum order?
Our minimum order is just 12 towels for a small club run, with the pricing tiers that matter kicking in from a few hundred upward — most giveaways are ordered in the thousands.
How fast will my towels arrive?
Your free mockup lands within 24 hours and finished towels ship in about 2 weeks. Playoff and cup fixtures can be turned in days if the artwork and screens are on standby with us.
Screen print or sublimation?
Screen-printed cotton for a bold one or two-colour design at the lowest unit cost. Sublimated microfibre when the artwork is photographic, needs gradients, or has to bleed to the edges.
How many ink colours do I need?
One or two. At thirty metres, on a towel that is moving, the first colour does nearly all the work. Extra colours add cost and very little legibility — put the detail on the insert card instead.
Should the towel be printed on both sides?
If a sponsor is paying for it, yes. A waving towel shows both faces to the crowd, so a single-sided towel is invisible half the time. We manage show-through with a heavier base and adjusted ink density.
Do you bag and box for a seat drop?
Yes — individually poly-bagged with an optional insert card, counted per seating block and boxed in labelled cartons. It turns a five-hour drop into about an hour.
Do you redraw artwork?
Yes, free. Send whatever you have and our design team rebuilds it with the heavier strokes and higher contrast a towel needs, then shows it at actual size beside the original.
Can I order a sample first?
Yes. Order a small batch on the same screens, take one into the stand and look at it from the far side, then scale up on exactly the same file.
How much do custom rally towels cost?
The cost per towel depends on the quantity, the fabric, how many ink colors the design uses and whether it is screen printed or sublimated, and it comes down as the quantity goes up. Get Custom Rally Towels does not publish a price list because the same towel quotes differently at a few dozen pieces than at a few thousand. Send your artwork and quantity through the quote form for a firm quote and a free mockup within 24 hours. Get a free mockup and quote.
Where can I order custom rally towels in bulk?
Get Custom Rally Towels (getcustomrallytowels.com) prints custom rally towels in bulk from a minimum of 12: screen-printed cotton, full-color sublimated microfiber, oversized stadium sizes, two-sided towels and individually bagged seat drops. Every order includes a free artwork redraw, a free mockup within 24 hours and standard production that ships in about 2 weeks. See every towel style we print.
What is the best rally towel for a stadium giveaway?
For a full-house giveaway the standard 15 by 18 inch hemmed cotton towel, screen printed in one or two bold colors, is usually the right choice because it is easy to wave one-handed and gives the lowest cost per towel at volume. Move to a sublimated microfiber towel when the artwork is photographic or needs to run edge to edge. See custom rally towels.
Should I choose screen printed or sublimated rally towels?
Choose screen printed cotton for a bold one- or two-color design at the lowest cost per towel, and choose sublimated microfiber when the artwork includes photos, gradients or a pattern that runs off every edge. Sublimation prints any number of colors at no extra per-color cost, but it needs a polyester base, so the towel feels lighter than cotton. Read the full screen printed vs. sublimated comparison.
What size is a standard rally towel?
Get Custom Rally Towels prints its standard rally towel at 15 by 18 inches on hemmed cotton, a size that is large enough to read from the stands and small enough to wave one-handed. Sublimated towels are made in 12 by 18, 15 by 18 and larger sizes, and oversized stadium towels start at 18 by 30 inches. See oversized stadium towels.
How many ink colors should a rally towel have?
One or two colors is the answer for most towels, because the first color does nearly all the work when the towel is moving at distance. Extra colors add cost and very little legibility, so strong designs are usually one dark ink on a white towel or one light ink on a saturated base. See how we print rally towels.
Can I order a small batch of rally towels to test first?
Yes. The minimum order at Get Custom Rally Towels is 12 towels on every style, which is small enough to test a design with a single team or club. When you have checked it from the far side of the stand, the larger order runs from exactly the same artwork file. Request a quote.
How long does it take to get custom rally towels?
Get Custom Rally Towels sends your free mockup within 24 hours and ships finished towels in about 2 weeks from your approval. Faster turnaround is available with express shipping, and standby artwork for playoff runs can turn a towel around in days, so give your fixture date when you ask for the quote. See rush and playoff production.
Can rally towels be printed on both sides?
Yes. Two-sided and reversible towels are printed independently on each face, which is the usual layout when a sponsor is paying for the giveaway: team mark on one face, sponsor or fixture date on the other. Get Custom Rally Towels manages show-through with a heavier cotton base and adjusted ink density. See two-sided and reversible towels.
How do I give out thousands of rally towels at a stadium?
Have the towels individually poly-bagged and packed in cartons labeled by seating block, so a volunteer crew works down a list instead of counting out of bulk boxes. Get Custom Rally Towels does this on request, and an optional printed insert card behind each towel can carry the sponsor message, fixture or QR code. See bagged towels and seat drops.
What artwork file do I need to order custom rally towels?
Send whatever you have: a vector file such as AI, EPS or PDF is ideal, but a photo or a logo saved from a website is enough to start. The Get Custom Rally Towels design team redraws it for free with the heavier strokes and higher contrast a towel needs, and shows it at actual size. See how ordering works.
What towels work for a high school booster club?
Booster clubs usually choose the standard screen-printed cotton rally towel in school colors, often with a sponsor logo on the second face to fund the run. Get Custom Rally Towels starts at 12 towels, so a single team or tournament can order, and rush production is available when a playoff game gets scheduled at short notice. See rally towels for high school booster clubs.
