Services
We've been in business since 1983 and have grown from a 250 to 7,000 square feet of workspace in order to meet the supply and demand of past, present, and future corporate customers, small business, schools, universities, and non-profit organizations. Our highly acclaimed art department truly soars above and beyond the rest of the customized apparel pack.
Our custom embroidery services offer many opportunities for creativity all accomplished by modern technology. However, human input better known as our expert art department takes into consideration if the logo can be properly embroidered as fine detail may not lend itself to making a stitch. If you don't have a logo or your logo needs further enhancement, the art department can do that too.
Screen printing describes a resourceful group of technologies based around the printing of a viscous ink usually through a fine mesh or screen that is tightly stretched around a rigid frame. If more colors are desired in the final design, the printing process is repeated with additional screens. Although small and intricate details can be captured, screen printing shirts is ideally suited for bold and graphic designs. Screen is lifted and either you're done or another screen will be used to apply another color.
Corporate logo apparel is one of the most versatile promotional products available to you; it has a strong role to play in enhancing your corporate image and perception by others. Whether you call it logo apparel, promotional clothing, or corporate apparel - almost every business and organization makes the decision to invest in custom logo apparel at some point.

Mark and his team are prompt and professional! I've already purchased a few promotional items and will continue to do so! Every time we've placed an order, CAT specialties have been so easy to work with. Their design team is great! If your looking for promo items no need to look further. CAT specialties is your company.

After looking and trying so many other embroidery and screen printing companies, I finally found the perfect one! I couldn't be happier with CAT Specialties or recommended them enough! My order was processed and ready faster than I expected, especially with COVID disrupting the production process. The customer service was amazing and Lynn was especially helpful. I will definitely be going back and will continue to use CAT Specialties for all of my company needs!

If you are a business owner in San Gabriel Valley or the Covina area and need to get custom work shirts made, look no further. I've worked with Mark and Lynn for many years helping me with custom promotional products for trade shows, events, conferences, and developing uniforms and give away products to promote business. Pens, T shirts, polos, and out of the box ideas.
He does a great spin the wheel promotion and can custom develop canvas back drops and signs for business. Embroidery on hats, polos, jackets and beanies. If you can think of it, they can probably do it. I am currently working on embroidery for my dress shirts with my custom logo. Excited to see the results. Hard working local business, support local.

Mark & his team did an amazing job creating signage for our new office location! I would recommend Mark & his team for any promotional items for their business since I have had the pleasure of seeing shirts, pens, hats, marketing strategies, etc., etc. for any type of business that wants to promote their products or services.

These guys have been printing our shirts every year for the past decade. I would have given 5 stars. We love the quality of the print. We love the friendliness of the staff. We love the huge selection of shirts and accessories they have. We love the attention to detail regarding the print, in which they asked us to recreate the design using 300 dpi rather resampling it themselves for better quality.
My only complain is that when I had called in to check when our shirts would be ready for pick up, our initial conversation was exactly like this: ME: Hi. I'm just trying to find out what time our shirts would be available for pick up tomorrow. LADY: Uh.who are you? Having worked in sales, (online, phone, and in-person) for the last 10 years, "Uh.who are you?" would not pass an as appropriate response for any customer.
When customers call, they will not always introduce themselves or will wait for you to be ready to collect such information - signified by the sales person asking for either an order number, customer id, or the name on the account. So her response could've and SHOULD'VE been something like this: ME: Hi. I'm just trying to find out what time our shirts would be available for pick up tomorrow. LADY: "Sure.
May I have your order number, or perhaps the name of the organization so that I may pull up your account?" OR ME: Hi. I'm just trying to find out what time our shirts would be available for pick up tomorrow. LADY: "Absolutely. May I ask with whom I am speaking?" BIG DIFFERENCE. I hope this gets corrected because how she responded is nowhere near professional in nature.
And by this being the beginning of the conversation, she's already giving a bad first impression, which has already affected the mood of the caller and if I wasn't a professional myself, probably would've affected the tone of the entire conversation.

I have used CAT Specialties for over two decades. They have provided everything from T-shirts to custom printed flash drives, coffee cups and other promotional items. Their quality is absolutely the best and their artwork is above and beyond that of their competitors. Customer service is excellent and they turn around orders quickly and correctly. This is the type of small business that I am proud to support and you should too!

I have ordered promotional items such as shirts, camera covers, thermos, etc - as well as essential branding items like table cloths, prize wheels and more from C.A.T. Specialties over the last several years. They are always on point with their ideas and suggestions, work within my budget and deliver on time. I highly recommend Mark & his team.

Everytime I need shirts for my club/organization, I go to CAT Specialties. They always manage to deliver high quality printed shirts even for rush orders. They are also quick at getting back to you for requesting quotes. Veronica (who is amazing and super helpful) gave me a call shortly after I requested a quote on their website. With less that two days, I was able to get my order. They also have wide range of other products to choose from which I can't wait to order for next time.

I love working with CAT Specialties! Mark Breves is by far one of the most accomodating and attentive specialists in the field of promotional products. I've never made it easy for him but he hasn't failed to surprise me with quick turnaround times and patience to answer all my questions. Additionally, Mark is always willing to work with you on price and can make a project work on any budget. Even after produced and shipped, CAT specialties goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy with the end result. I wouldn't go anywhere else!

I'm a huge fan of CAT Specialties. They always do high quality embroidery in a short turn around at a great price! Highly recommend them for any and all promo material projects. We use them for all our branded shirts and apparel. They have plenty of samples and fabric swatches at the location so you can be sure about color and fabric before you decide.

These guys are Lifesavers! Not only did they get our t-shirts done in such a short amount of time for our festival, but the quality of work is second to none. I have already recommended them to three different people this week. If you are looking for quality work and a professional staff, then this is definitely the place to go!
