It depends on what you do on those shirts, and how many pieces are in your order. I just quickly mocked up a one-color front and back order for 50 pieces, and it came to $9.73 per piece. Once you start getting fancy, of course, the price goes up. (ex: 1923 uses metallic silver ink on our shirts. While it's still a one-color print, that puts us up towards 10-11 bucks.)
I will always be a RushOrder fan: they saved 1923's hides 9 seasons ago when we didn't have shirts on the Tuesday of our regional week... True to their name, my team had apparel the very next day.
Their team has always been fantastic to work with. We've now grown to ordering 100+ pieces from them every few months (team wear & event volunteer shirts), and everything they've ever shipped us has been fantastic. I would highly recommend ROT - what extra you might pay is worth it in the long run for their quality. Their art team is happy to work with you on anything, too - they took a napkin sketch & some photos of old robots and helped us turn it into
this.
Edit:: Meg, to your original point - Here's one ROT item with a more 'professional' look than the hoodies - United Therapeutics ordered these and I can show you pictures of how they turned out - just send me a PM. Another vendor I've seen with a bigger jacket selection (although we have not used them, I've ordered samples) is 4imprint.com
