The Challenge: One Consistent Look Across Four Oktoberfest Locations

Incendiary Brewing needed their staff outfitted in the same branded hoodie across four separate Oktoberfest locations, all on the same weekend. When a team is split across multiple venues, any variation in print color, placement, or garment shade breaks the impression that it is one brand running all four events, and that difference is obvious the moment photos from different locations end up side by side on social media.

On top of that, Oktoberfest is a fixed date on the calendar with no flexibility to push it back. A bulk run of 145 hoodies had to be printed, checked, and delivered in time for setup at every location, leaving no room for a reprint or a rushed fix if anything came back wrong.

The Sew NC Solution: In-House Precision & Physical Proofing

Sew NC approached the project with a focus on durability and process transparency, leveraging 100% in-house production to eliminate guesswork:

48-Hour Physical Sample Approval

Instead of relying on digital mockups that often shift color and placement once printed, Sew NC prepared a physical screen printed sample directly on the actual District Perfect Tri hoodie within 48 hours, so the team could review exact color match, print placement, and finish in person before the full run of 145 went into production.

Dedicated Account Manager & Production Tracking

With a fixed event date approaching, Incendiary Brewing was assigned a dedicated local contact who provided real time updates from proof approval through production, delivering the complete 145 piece order in a little over a week.

Structured Logistics & Site-Specific Packaging

Because the order was headed to four different Oktoberfest locations, Sew NC produced every hoodie in house and organized the final delivery by size and destination, so each location received exactly what it needed without any sorting on event day.

Industrial-Grade Materials & Thread Selection

We selected the District Perfect Tri Long Sleeve Hoodie for its lightweight tri blend feel and fall weather coverage, then screen printed it with colors matched exactly to the Incendiary Brewing brand, keeping every piece identical across all four locations.

Built for Long Fall Event Days

Oktoberfest means staff on their feet from setup through last pour, often with temperatures dropping as the evening goes on. The District Perfect Tri Long Sleeve Hoodie was selected for exactly that: light enough to work in all day, warm enough for an outdoor October event, and soft enough that staff actually want to keep wearing it after the tents come down.

Brand Visibility That Outlasts the Event

A branded hoodie does its most valuable work after the event is over. Every piece from this run keeps the Incendiary Brewing name in circulation around Winston Salem long past Oktoberfest weekend, worn by staff on shift, at other breweries, and around town. That turns a one weekend event order into months of everyday brand visibility across the local market.

The Result: Four Locations, One Brand, Delivered On Time

Sew NC screen printed and delivered all 145 District Perfect Tri long sleeve hoodies in a little over a week, with every piece matching across all four Oktoberfest locations. Incendiary Brewing’s full staff showed up looking like one brand at every venue, with zero quality issues and nothing left to fix on event day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our in-house production, physical sample approval, and order process.

What is the typical turnaround time for bulk custom shirt orders?

It depends on quantity and decoration method, but because everything is produced in house we control the full timeline instead of waiting on an outside vendor. For Incendiary Brewing’s Oktoberfest run we screen printed and delivered 145 long sleeve hoodies in a little over a week, ready for setup at every location.

For outdoor events that run all day, tri blend fabrics are usually the best balance. We selected the District Perfect Tri Long Sleeve Hoodie for this order because it is light enough for staff to work in from setup through last pour, warm enough for October temperatures, and soft enough that people keep wearing it long after the event.

Screen printing is the standard for bulk event runs because the per piece cost drops as quantity increases and the print holds up through repeated washing. That is the method we used for Incendiary Brewing’s 145 piece Oktoberfest order. DTF printing is the better option for full color artwork or smaller quantities, and embroidery is used for hats, polos, and anything that needs a premium finish. We run all three in house in Winston Salem.

Per piece pricing drops as quantity increases, so an event run like this one costs significantly less per shirt than a small order. The final number depends on the garment, the number of print colors, and the print locations. Send us your quantity and artwork and we will break it down for you.

Before running full production on any order, we stitch or print a physical proof for your approval. You can review color matching, thread density, and placement to ensure 100% accuracy before we complete the rest of your garments.

Yes. We organize the final delivery by size and destination so each location receives exactly what it needs, with no sorting required on event day. This works for breweries with more than one taproom, multi site businesses, and events running at several venues at once.
