Sixty people is the size where a quarter zip order stops being casual. Sizes spread out, some staff want a women's cut, and the tier math starts to matter. Here is the plan Battle Born Clothing walks buyers through.

## Step 1: pick one style, or one pair

Pick a single unisex style for simplicity, usually the Port Authority F218 fleece. If a meaningful share of the team wants a women's cut, add a matched pair: Independent EXP20PQ and EXP15WPQ for performance, or F218 plus the IND280MOCK mock neck for fleece. Keep it to two styles; every added style is priced at its own tier and makes the size list harder.

## Step 2: collect sizes the easy way

Send staff a one-line form: name, unisex or women's, size. Give them the supplier's size chart (we send it with the quote). Expect this distribution on a typical 60-person adult order:

| Size | Share | Pieces |
|---|---|---|
| S | 10% | 6 |
| M | 25% | 15 |
| L | 30% | 18 |
| XL | 20% | 12 |
| 2XL | 10% | 6 |
| 3XL | 5% | 3 |

2XL and up carry a supplier upcharge of roughly $1 to $7 per piece depending on size; it shows on your quote.

## Step 3: order extras

Add 3 to 5 percent in the most common sizes (M, L, XL) for new hires and the person who skipped the form. On 60 that is 2 to 3 pieces. If you are near a tier line, round up to it: 72 pieces drops to $26.07 and 96 to $25.57.

## Step 4: the math

| Line | Math | Total |
|---|---|---|
| 60 F218 at 60-79 tier | 60 × $26.07 | $1,564.20 |
| Digitizing, one design | one time | $18.99 |
| Total before freight and 2XL+ upcharges |  | $1,583.19 |

Swap 20 of those for a women's EXP15WPQ and you have 40 F218 at the 24-47 tier ($27.57) plus 20 EXP15WPQ quoted per job at its own tier. On matched programs ask us; we will often combine the count into one tier.

## Step 5: artwork and proof

Send the logo as vector (AI, EPS, PDF, SVG) or 300 dpi PNG, with brand colors. We digitize ($18.99, standard 2-day) and send a digital proof showing size, placement and thread colors. Approve it and the 28-day clock starts.

## Step 6: timing

Quote same business day. Proof a few days after art. Production 28 days from approval. Freight 1 to 5 days. For a holiday delivery, approve by early November. Read the [gift-season timeline](/guides/holiday-quarter-zip-timeline/).

## Step 7: delivery

We fold and bag each piece and label by size. One box to one address is standard. Splitting across offices is fine; give us the breakdown. Freight is billed at cost.

## Reorders

Your digitized file stays on our machines. A reorder of 8 pieces for new hires is quoted per job at blank plus embroidery, no new setup. Thread colors and placement match the first run.

## Questions
**Should we let people choose their own color?** You can, but each color is still the same style so it does not change the tier. Keep it to two colors or sorting gets messy.

**What if someone's size is wrong after delivery?** Embroidered garments cannot be returned to the supplier. That is why we suggest 3 to 5 percent extras in common sizes.
