Inkdnylon Custom Apparel + SanMar: Delivering Premium Apparel Brands from Chicago to Nationwide

Inkdnylon Custom Apparel has officially partnered with SanMar, the largest apparel distributor in the United States. This partnership gives our customers direct access to the world’s most trusted apparel brands — decorated with our embroidery, screen printing, vinyl, rhinestones, DTF transfers, and spangles — all from our Chicago facility and shipped nationwide.

Why This Partnership is a Game-Changer

SanMar is the supply chain engine behind the decorated apparel industry, providing premium products to decorators across the country. By working directly with SanMar, Inkdnylon is now able to bring top retail brands into the custom decoration space for our clients. Whether you are in Chicago, elsewhere in the Midwest, or anywhere in the United States, you can now access these brands for your business, school, nonprofit, or organization.

This means that local Chicago businesses can order Nike polos with their embroidered logos, construction crews across the Midwest can outfit their teams with rugged Carhartt jackets, and national nonprofits can choose Champion sweatshirts or Comfort Colors T-shirts for fundraisers. The result: world-class apparel decorated with Inkdnylon’s unmatched craftsmanship.

Services That Elevate Every Garment

Pairing these top-tier brands with our decoration services is what makes this partnership powerful. At Inkdnylon, we offer:

• Embroidery – Professional logos for polos, jackets, scrubs, and hats.
