I stopped in after searching online for a local print shop near NYU. So glad I found this place. I wanted to have a t-shirt customized last minute and the staff was awesome. They helped me select a great color and the appropriate font to make the shirt look nice. The shirt was ready within hours so, I can have it for dorm move-in. Thank you Works In Progress NYC!

We were ordering shirts for an event that was less than one week away😬😬😬 But the ladies were nice and patient.As my manager was being particular about the designs for the order. And they are reasonably priced under or about 20.00 a shirt for our order. I Definitely will be going there again!

Friendly & very communicative with a speedy turnover for a 37-count, single color, two-sided screen print job. Emily and Danny stayed in constant communication, being very quick in their email responses, and were very helpful with their design / print suggestions and professional advice. Not a single complaint. THANK YOU WIP- to many more prints!

I first found Works in Progress years ago when I was looking for a socially responsible company to produce tshirts for a company run with the JP Morgan Chase Corporate Challenge 5k. I wanted to support either a non-profit or a company that gives back to the community in some way. When I did a Google search, Works in Progress popped up and I was immediately drawn to their mission to provide internships to NYC high school students where they can get a hands-on learning experience and engage in all aspects of the business.
Since discovering Works in Progress, I have placed several large orders

I brought them the concept for my T-shirt design.
They worked face to face, email and over the phone with me on a number of things that were necessary to help bring a double sided, tri-colored to life. Communication was solid. These folks know their business!
The best thing was that I never felt like I did not have any control over of my order... It was a great collaboration.
Really appreciate the experience... I'll be back... I def recommend this gang.
