Frequently asked questions

The design tool, pricing, artwork, fabric tiers, and shipping, answered straight.

Is the blanket design tool really free?

Yes. The design tool at https://spectatorsport.com/design runs in your browser: no download, no account, no credit card to start. You can build and preview as many designs as you want; you only pay if and when you place an order.

Can I order just one custom printed blanket?

Yes. Single blankets order straight through the design tool, which is what most families and gift buyers do. Bulk runs are a separate path: wholesale pricing starts at 72 blankets, and per-blanket cost keeps dropping with volume from there.

How much does a custom printed blanket cost?

Almost every order lands between $30 and $90 all-in per blanket, depending on the fabric tier and quantity. At volume it gets aggressive: the Lite Plus tier runs as low as $30.98 per blanket at 500+ pieces. For an exact number on your design and quantity, request a quote. It takes one business day.

What is the minimum order for wholesale pricing?

72 blankets. Below that you can still order any quantity (down to a single blanket) through the design tool at standard pricing. At 72 and up you get wholesale rates, and pricing improves again at higher volumes.

Can I print photos on a blanket?

Yes, photo printing is the core of what we do. Single photos, full-bleed images, and multi-photo collages all work. For best results use the largest, sharpest version of each photo you have (300 DPI at print size is ideal, but a good phone photo usually prints well at blanket scale).

What file types do you accept?

For logos and graphics, vector files (AI, EPS, SVG) print sharpest. For photos, high-resolution JPG or PNG. If all you have is a low-resolution logo or a screenshot, send it anyway. Our design team can usually recreate it cleanly at no charge.

What material are the blankets made of?

Every blanket prints on NubaySoft, the proprietary ultra-soft plush fabric Spectator Sport USA developed and prints on exclusively. It comes in five tiers (Lite Plus, Ultra Plus, D-Luxe, D-Luxe Plus, and Swanky Blankey), from a light volume-friendly weight up to a 1060 GSM heirloom weight. All tiers are 60x80 inches.

How long does production take?

Roughly 2 to 8 weeks depending on the fabric tier and order size, plus the design and proof-approval step up front (free mockups come back within 48 hours). If you are working toward a fixed date, start early and tell us the date. We plan production backward from it.

Do you ship to all 50 states? Can you drop-ship?

Yes to both. Bulk orders ship to one address, or we drop-ship individual blankets to each recipient, handy when one design is going to an entire team, office, or family list.

Can I use the design tool for business or team orders?

Absolutely. Many bulk orders start as a quick mockup someone built in the tool. For logo-heavy corporate work, businesslogoblanket.com has resources specific to brand guidelines and company stores; for school and team art, schoolblanket.com. It is all the same print shop underneath.

Who is behind CustomPrintedBlanket.com?

CustomPrintedBlanket.com is a Spectator Sport USA property. Spectator Sport USA is a sports gear and equipment company based in Murray, Utah, and custom printed blankets are its flagship product line, printed in-house on NubaySoft fabric for over 20 years. The same company operates schoolblanket.com, businesslogoblanket.com, fundraiserblanket.com, and spectatorsport.com.
