Candroy

STELLAR! Phenomenal customer service, finished an item in 2 days for a Christmas present even with special order thread. Miranda was so helpful and patient. It looks amazing.

Terrible quality, this place is all about bulk orders, over charging and making money off of locals. Quantity over quality, they are set up to look like a small family owned business but underneath that is a greedy business who does poor quality work, and once they have your money they care a less about the customer.
There are so many other options for this service in San Diego, don’t waste your hard earned money with this company!

Candroy is one of those businesses that leaves you feeling you actually connected with real people who give a damn about what you need. I had two small jobs that were no doubt small for any other print shop out there but absolutely headache-​inducing for myself.
Despite being flooded with work orders, Candroy not only fixed all my print issues but completed them in a timescale where I didn’t have a mind-​crushing headache anymore. They actually have a resident digital artist on site who has a sense of proportion and gets everything just right for measurements and appearance.
If you want cheap, by all means go CafePress or something and watch what you ordered melt away in a few washes. Candroy will give you quality that lasts more than a spin cycle. I don’t know how anyone could accuse these people of being rude or crass. This is a family business, and by that it’s not a mafia-​run garbage collection racket but artists providing embroidery and screen prints even for the ordinary person who walks through the front door.
I brought in two work aprons for embroidery, by the way. Don’t expect to get turned away at the door. If you have some crazy font-​related issue obviously expect to pay more to get the initial settings done right. I’m glad I came to Candroy first rather than get burned at some other place first and ask them to fix a disaster. Everything worked out in the end.

Candroy saved my perfect wedding!!! We asked our guests to wear their favorite pair of converse/​chuck taylor’s to the reception. My husband, and I, and our wedding party all wore yellow converse sneakers. We only had 3 months to plan our wedding, and for 2 of those months, I was searching for a place that would embroider my new last name and our wedding date on my yellow high tops, along with planning the rest of the wedding. Every embroider place I called took forever to return my calls, didn’t return my call or email, or were not able to embroider on the sneaker. They said it would not fit the embroider machine. My Matron of Honor found Candroy THE WEEK OF MY WEDDING!!! I called, and spoke to Miranda, 4 DAYS BEFORE our wedding, explained my dilemma, and she told me to bring in my converse so she could take a look at them. When I arrived, others questioned her being able to embroider my shoes, and said they would not be able to sit in the machine. Miranda said she would hand hold them herself, and stated after all «it’s for her wedding.» It’s the «little» things like this, and the time she took to help, that made our day so exciting. THANK YOU MIRANDA!!! Candroy/​Miranda gave excellent customer service and I would HIGHLY recommend using Condroy for your orders!

I had a last minute T-​shirt printing project that I wanted done for a family reunion and am so glad I came to Candroy. Not only were they accommodating, but they went above and beyond to make sure I got my T-​shirts on time. The print job was very well done and the T-​shirt quality was great. All I did was email my file, ‘talk’ over email and the next thing I know I got my T-​shirts in perfect condition. I was extremely happy going to my family reunion and everyone loved their shirts! Highly recommend!

This is the best printer ever! I found Candroy several years when I was looking for someone to help me make a customized sports hat. They went above and beyond to help me with type of print/​embroidery and get the layout set up. The product turned out great and was a big hit with the recipient. Since then, I’ve used them several times for some small order and individual t-​shirts. Sometimes I have very last minute requests and they are always friendly, super responsive and they do everything they can to get my order done in the time I need. They also go above and beyond in the exchange of product. The products always turn out awesome! I love that they let me use my own garment and work with me to make sure it’s the right fabric for the application. Even though they are not the closest printer to me, their helpfulness, responsiveness and willingness to work with me make the distance well worth it. I have extreme confidence in the success of every project I send to them. I would never go anywhere else.

I have used this place twice and I have been so happy with their service, friendliness, and products. The first time I used it I was in dire need of some quick and relatively priced work for fathers day. Given that Fathers day was on Sunday and I was getting the gift the friday before and it was already noon and on a budget I called multiple places that said they wouldn’t do it because they didn’t have enough time or they needed me to go there right then and there to place the order, or they were freaking crazy expensive. I finally called this place and omg they gave it to me for 25 bucks, I could email the picture and they would have it in an hour. The guy that answered was the sweetest person ever and I knew I would be back with any of my other designs.
and I eventually did. My group and I wanted to make shirts for a project, but of course we only thought of that less than a week before it was due. This time I worked with their online system. I inquired and recieved a response in the morning of the next day. all they wanted to do was confirm what kind of shirt and the order and I did. I made it a little hard for them and said we wanted to change the shirt to be a vneck, they sent me to an easy website I picked it and they ordered it on a Friday. We needed by Wednesday and they had it done and beautifully made to my group and I’s exact picture of what we wanted it to look like, on Tuesday. I will forever come back to this place. It is clean, the people are great, and the products are on point.

Miranda was a pleasure to work with, she was patient with our very specific needs and was extremely responsive to all calls and emails. We had jerseys made with our design changing multiple times and she assisted us without any complaints. We had a strict deadline to pick them up last night and they worked overtime to be sure they were open once I got off work to pick the jerseys up. On top of it all, we needed a really specific design and they NAILED IT! Definitely recommend!

Called to get aprons embroidered. Told me each would be under $ 10 each. Arrived at shop and now it’s at least $ 20 each. «We are a high volume shop and don’t cater to small business customers.»
Very mater of fact. Not interested in business. Ok. Would never recommend them.

I’ve used this business two years in a row to print t-​shirts for a charity event. They are quick, competitively priced, and their direct-​to-​garment printing is awesome for orders too small to qualify for screen printing.

Brian and Miranda are amazing!!! I only trust them with my orders. The prices are great and the service is extraordinary! I highly recommend them! =)

Absolutely amazing!
Brian, Miranda, and Matt are the best! They are extremely helpful, their customer service is off the charts and they are fast and quality driven. We have been using them for nearly two years now for our clothing company, primarily for DTG work, and they have been fantastic both using the Kornit and Brother printer. Not only do they get the job done but they go above and beyond to understand your order and get your project finished on schedule.
They take the time out of their day to explain the little stuff, ensuring you are as satisfied as can be with your order, and when complications arise, even if it’s your fault not theirs, they do everything in their power to fix it at no additional trouble to you.
Overall, their customer service, quality, and flexibility makes them the incomparable. Amazing business, amazing people! Would recommend them to anyone!

You ever have an experience with a business where the service, the product, the attitude, and the energy are so on point, you can tell you’re gonna be friends for a long time? That was my experience with Miranda, and co. at Candroy. It all started when I needed a couple novelty tees made. But where? Most screen printers have expensive minimum orders and costly screen charges. Not here. Candroy’s direct-​to-​garment process allows you to craft that perfect gift novelty shirt for your buddy without having to spend $$$. The best part? The shirts came out EXACTLY how I designed/​envisioned it, and within only a few business days. As a picky graphic designer this is HUGE for me.
So they passed the 1^st test. 2 weeks later I thought I’d really put it too ‘em by ordering 29 zip hoodies for my workplace with a rough mock up how how I wanted the graphics to look, and a deadline of 2 weeks. My emails were returned promptly and quotes were given. Not only did the hoodies come out incredible, they came out ahead of schedule in an Xmas rush. I’ve never seen a screenprinting co. move this fast. EVER.
Beyond the service, the best part is if you have your graphic ready, you can order from a wide selection of shirts/​garments/​colors/​sizes online thru
to make sure you get the right stuff. The website is very easy to navigate, and if thats not your thing you can always come into the office and look/​feel the samples yourself. Stop in and say hi to Miranda, she’s the hard-​working American reason why you want to support small businesses like this.

Called them for a last minute shirt embroidery for my company and Brian and Miranda pulled it off on time and I was happy with the price. Brian was very organized when taking my shirts in as there were a few different sizes and each had a name to be embroidered on it. Friendly service! I will be calling them to do our company t-​shirt screen printing order.

These guys are awesome. Brian is very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. He always answered the phone (a rarity these days) and knew our order from memory. We printed some promotional shirts for our
law office. The quality of the shirts is great. The print looks top grade. We are really happy with the results.

I needed a place to get a robe embroidered and finally found this place. They were very nice and helpful and got it done overnight. We explained we needed it before the rehearsal dinner at five the next day and it was done in plenty of time and they called us promptly so the whole thing was very convenient. The shop is run by a family, which is also cool. The robe looked great and they were very thoughtful about keeping it clean. If I ever need a service they could provide I would definitely go to them again!

I had a wonderful experience at Candroy. I brought in robes to have embroidered for 7 bridesmaids, 2 mothers and myself. I had an excellent experience! Miranda was very helpful. The turnaround was so quick, I got all 10 robes back the next day and they were beautiful! She really made sure that I was getting what I wanted… and that’s what I got! I definitely WILL return for my next project :)

Awesome work. What more is there to say. They printed the design I gave them and it looks great. Also… they were on time and able to print on Black shirts, which isn’t always easy to do.
I will be ordering from them again.

First of all, they are quick and very helpful just through email. The quote on my 2 shirt projects came within just a few hours and Miranda was very helpful as I had many questions.
Then when I went in to drop off my shirts, Brian was extremely helpful and very, very nice. He even helped me out and explained some graphic tricks as I am self taught. He seemed genuinely interested in my business and made sure I was completely satisfied with all measurements before putting them in for print. You can’t beat the quality for such a great price and you won’t get people like this at any other company. They gave me their full attention while I was there and never acted like I was «ignorant» for asking 100 questions like many other companies have done to me in the past. They are excellent at what they do and their customer service is off the charts!
Such a great business and such wonderful people who run it. I look forward to using them again.

Very good business. Brian & Miranda went way out of their way to help me make the best decision for screen printing. He made some keen observations and actually helped us re-​design several of the pieces of art for printing. Helpful feedback and advice is always appreciated, and Brian gave me a lot of it.
Very honest and helpful. Will do business with these guys the in the future for sure.
