Tired of Generic Gear? Discover the Crest & Standard Difference for Your Brand!

Posted on October 07 2025, By: Casey Thompson

Every team, club, and business has a story, a mission, and a unique identity. But far too often, that identity gets lost in cheap, ill-fitting, or uninspired branded apparel. You deserve gear that truly reflects your quality and commitment – gear that makes you and your group look unified, professional, and proud.

At Crest & Standard, we understand that frustration. We've heard countless stories of minimum order headaches, confusing design processes, disappointing quality, and the stress of missed deadlines and delayed orders. We believe getting custom apparel should be simple, high-quality, and stress-free. That's why we built Crest & Standard: to be your trusted guide in transforming your brand vision into next-level custom apparel and goods.

We know your time is valuable, so we've streamlined the custom apparel journey into three easy steps. We're here to make you look good without the hassle.

2. Approve Your Mockup: See Your Brand Come to Life

Based on your needs, we'll recommend the perfect garments that align with your style and budget. You'll quickly receive a free digital proof of your custom design and a clear, written estimate for your order. We value your peace of mind, so we never move forward until you are 100% happy and give us the green light.

3. Wear It Proud: Quality Delivered, Stress Removed

The hard part is over for you! Sit back and relax while our skilled production team gets to work. We are committed to proactive communication throughout the production process and obsessively focused on meeting your delivery dates.
