Branded apparel partner. Gold Coast. Since 2006.

Your printer asks how many colours.
We ask why your brand exists.

Behind your brand

Strategy, design, production and retail finishing. One Gold Coast team behind your brand.

Step 1 of 3

Book your free 30‑minute strategy session.

Three quick taps and you're in. For brands ordering 50+ pieces.

How many pieces per order?

Takes 30 seconds. No obligation.

  • We start with your brand. Why it exists comes first. The garments follow.
  • You'll never chase us. A date set upfront, and updates before you ask.
  • Your brand, exactly as you pictured it. High colour, specialty finishes, reprints that match.
  • We stand behind every piece. Not as approved? We replace it.

Brands we've stood behind.

If you have to chase your printer,
they're not a partner.

Sound familiar? What brands tell us about their last printer

  • I had no idea where my order was.

  • I didn't get a completion date. It just turned up whenever.

  • Nobody gave me advice on styles, colours or print methods.

Your printer asks:

  • How many shirts?
  • How many colours?
  • Where do we send them?

We ask:

  • Why does your brand exist?
  • Who's wearing it, and how should they feel?
  • How will it actually be used?

That's the difference between a printer and a partner.

DRK LBL really could not have made the process more stress free. From initial contact with our apparel consultant Andy, through the selection process, getting samples, placing the order and getting it into our hands ahead of schedule. Andy is awesome at his job, answered all our questions with ease and kept us so updated throughout the process including sending videos we ended up using on our socials. Of course the apparel and printing quality was 10/10.

Luke made the process so easy and seamless! We are so happy with our new uniforms and they are such high quality. Given a fresh look to our business. Highly recommend!

We couldn't be happier with DRK LBL! They printed our Wollemi Warriors merch and brought it to life! The quality is next level, and every detail came out perfect. The gear looks and feels unreal! They were super easy to work with, friendly, professional, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. We're seriously stoked with how everything turned out. If you want top-tier merch and an awesome team behind it, DRK LBL are the ones to call!

A massive shoutout to Andy and the team at DRK LBL! The t-shirts we've had printed by these guys are nothing short of insane. The quality, attention to detail, and care they put into their work have absolutely blown us away. We can't thank them enough for all their help along the way. If you're looking for a team that truly cares about their craft and their clients, these are the people to work with. Thanks again, DRK LBL, you've made our dream designs a reality!

I can't recommend DRK LBL enough!! They were so warm and easy to connect with from the get go. They took on everything I said and turned my vision into the most amazing reality. I'm no expert in design and my little start up was hanging on a few key pieces for our launch. It was so important to me and my business that I got these right and thank god I found DRK LBL to help me!

The team has been so great through the whole process of refining our logo and producing our Tee-shirts. We were on a bit of a deadline and they delivered in time, as promised. Would not hesitate in recommending these guys.

PPolar Goods

Couldn't recommend higher. We've worked with DRK LBL for close to 2 years now, printing tens of thousands of units across 20+ POs. Timelines are always hit, and the quality is consistently premium. What really sets DRK LBL apart is their level of service, organisation, and technical expertise in screen printing. Luke constantly pushes through urgent jobs with what should be unrealistic deadlines, and still gets it sorted. The best screen printers in QLD.
