Shirt and Ink colors for Custom T-Shirts
Picking Colors
It can be challenging to pick colors on your device because of monitor variables, lighting, and glare. Some color combinations can strain your eyes to look at. Contact one of our expert customer representatives if you’re concerned about your ink and shirt color combination.

Navy Blue
Usually looks Black on most phone and monitors. Navy is closest to the color of a New Cub Scout uniform. Like the uniform, after a few washings the color becomes more blue.
Royal Blue
Royal is the blue in the Cub Scout logo and the American Flag.
Gold
Athletic Gold color that’s a bit deeper than the yellows used in Cub Scouting. In general this gold looks the best.
Daisy or Lemon Yellow
Yellow that matches the Cub Scout logo and many Cub Scout elements. As a shirt color, it can be a bit harsh but many packs are happy with it.Need a change? Here are two more good colors for Cub Scout Pack t-shirts!
Iris Blue
Iris blue is a lighter Royal Blue. It is very close to the background of the Bobcat rank badge.
Carolina Blue
Carolina Blue is a great choice if your looking for a light blue thats not a baby blue.What colors are Cub Scout Packs most disappointed in?
Sapphire Blue
Many Cub Scout Packs order this one thinking it is Royal Blue. Sapphire is more like a deep turquoise blue color with a tropical feel.
Indigo Blue
Indigo Blue is like a grayish washed out Navy Blue. It is often mistaken for Navy on monitors since Navy appears like black.Learn more about Shirt colors: Blues
What ink colors are recommended for Cub Scout Packs?
Many of our ink colors are matched as close to t-shirt colors as possible. See All Ink colors
Royal Blue Ink
Standard color especially for Cub Scout logo on gold or yellow shirts.Gold Ink
Standard color especially for Cub Scout logo and on royal or navy blue shirts.Ink colors with Concerns
Glow Ink
Hardest ink to print because either it looks motley during the day and glows great, OR looks great during the day but has minimal glow.Navy Ink
Often looks like black ink on all but the lightest shirts. Same goes for Dark Chocolate and Forest Green inks.Lemon Yellow Ink
This ink sometimes lets shirt color come through. It ends up looking too light on many shirt colors.Choose a Garment for your Design

Choosing the Correct Garment Size
It’s a Challenge
“What shirt size do you want to order?” The best advice we have is ask them! Guessing sizes is a minefield. Every Cub Scout Pack group is different.
From our experience, it’s best to avoid Youth Small size. Kids grow too quick. Most Cub Scout Packs get a mix like 40% YM, 40% YL, 20% Adult Small for the Cubs.
We have a tool to help – try our Size Distribution Calculator
Size Sample Kit
For the B110 100% Cotton Short Sleeve T-shirt we have a size sample kit you can order. It comes with a coupon you can apply to your Cub Scout Pack t-shirt order.
Size Variation
Not all medium-sized shirts are the same. Garment types (even from the same vendor!) are often cut differently. In general, all garments are cut differently. Please review the garment detail pages for sizing information. Smaller shirts and features like zippers, v-necks and scoop necks can affect the overall imprint size for all your shirts.
Order Extras
Ordering extra shirts is the best thing you can do to solve size issues. After the shirts arrive, some people change the size they need. Having a few backup shirts enables you to keep those people happy. As new people join the group, it’s a great idea to have a shirt to welcome them.

Mixing Garments Types
Everyone wants something different? We can help with that! As long as they can all be printed with the same design & ink color(s), you can mix garment types like sweatshirts, ladies shirts, and hoodies with your T-shirts. Price will vary per garment type, but the total quantity determines the price break!Reorders
Reorders are priced based on quantity. It’s a good idea to get some extra shirts at the higher price break. If you need a smaller number of shirts after your first order, they will cost significantly more.How is pricing determined?
Quantity of garments • Type of garments • Number of ink colors • Sides printed
