An Upbeat Twist to Screen Printing
By Michelle Hunter
If you enjoy supporting local shops, with reasonable prices, really cool people, guaranteed work, clear communication, quality products, and smooth process every time- then you have got to check out Ink Thugs.
Owner and operator of Ink Thugs, Amy Moss, has quite the operation inside the store front located at 1939 Frontage Rd. Suite G in Sierra Vista near Docs Watering Hole. When you step through the doors, you will be greeted with smiles, upbeat music, and an impressive display of the various machines and apparent stages that go into the process of creating custom one of a kind screen print shirts.
After experiencing the struggle of shopping for quality shirt designs, not to mention t-shirt quality and fit, Amy took it upon herself to find a solution. After the investment of time, money, technique, and heaps of learning, Amy and her team have now mastered the challenge and are ready to share their talent with you. July will mark two years the business has been thriving in the current store location, and three years since launching.
In that time, the business, skills, services and range of customers have grown well above initial expectations. Earning the “Best of Sierra Vista” in 5 categories in 2025 is testament to that! While taking a tour through the shop to understand what goes into the process, the materials involved, and the complexity of the phases, it easy to grasp why this trade is truly a skilled art. Patience and “trust the process” definitely have a part here.
Ink Thugs offers a variety of screen-printing processes and techniques, sure to accommodate your design needs. Ink Thugs is equipped to take on small orders or in bulk, with a fast turnaround time and guaranteed work- with a business model like that it is sure to keep thriving in the heart of Sierra Vista.
