Coast T Shirts in Encinitas's Cardiff by the Sea district produces custom screen-printed apparel from its Cathy Lane production shop, serving businesses and organizations across San Diego and North County. The shop prints 1-to-10-color designs on 50/50 blend and 100% cotton T-shirts, sweatshirts, polo shirts, and hats — a garment range that addresses the same branded-merchandise needs behind custom shop gear at surf retailers like Atacama Surf Shop along the Encinitas coast. Discharge ink printing, which removes the garment dye and replaces it with the design color, produces a soft hand-feel on dark-stock shirts without the raised texture typical of standard plastisol screen work. The Cardiff by the Sea production facility invites clients to watch orders being printed on press, a transparency measure uncommon in the custom apparel industry. Coast T Shirts' commercial account roster spans small businesses, school teams, and nonprofit fundraisers — the same North County client base targeted by digital firms like North County Digital in the Encinitas service area. Maximum-complexity jobs involve 10-color separations on dark garments using a combination of discharge and plastisol inks, requiring precise screen registration within thousandths-of-an-inch tolerances across each pass.
