The team · Calgary, AB

The people behind the press.

Singh Customs isn’t a machine that spits out merch. It’s a small crew of makers in northeast Calgary who care a little too much about getting your order right.

Who we are

One shop.
One crew. One standard.

We’re a team of printers, embroiderers, designers, and finishers who run every job under one roof. No outsourcing, no middleman, no “that’s not my department.” When you hand us a logo, it passes through our hands — start to finish — until it’s something we’re proud to put our name on.

Where it started

It began with
one hoodie.

Growing up proud of his Punjabi roots in Calgary, our founder Hardev figured out something simple early on: a hoodie isn’t just fabric and thread. It’s pride. It’s identity. It’s belonging.

In 2021, fresh out of a mechanical engineering degree, he bet on that idea instead of the safe corporate path — and launched Singh Customs with a single embroidery machine and a lot of late nights.

What started as a one-person hustle is now a crew. The machines got bigger and the orders got larger, but the mission hasn’t changed since that first hoodie: real design, made by real people, for a real community.

What we stand for

Three truths,
zero exceptions.

01

Made by hand, made here

Every piece runs through our shop in Calgary — no outsourcing, no shortcuts. The team that quotes your job is the team that makes it.

02

Real design, never generic

No templates, no mass-produced filler. Every design is built for the person, team, or brand it represents.

03

A stronger local community

When local teams and businesses wear something made locally, the whole community feels it. That’s the win we’re chasing.

Who we work with

Built for
the believers.

01 · Schools & teams

High-school teams and clubs like Lester B. Pearson High — basketball, wrestling, and more.

02 · Local sports

Local teams like United Nova FC wearing our logo with pride on the field.

03 · Businesses & brands

Trades, real-estate pros, breweries, and community groups wearing their identity with pride.

Work with us

Let’s build something
real.

Whether it’s your first order or your fiftieth, the whole crew would love to hear what you’re working on.
